Where is it?
You’ll build Custom Pages from the Configure tab:
Adding a Custom Page
You can add as many pages as you like. Each one can be visible to all participants, or only specific roles.
- Step 1. Head to the Configure tab. Choose Custom Pages:
- Step 2. The first time you visit this page, you’ll see the Add Custom Page form. Fill this out to create your first page:
- After that, you’ll see a list of the pages you’ve created, with an Add button to create new pages:
- Step 3. In the Add Custom Page form, give the new page a name:
- • Page Name: This is the extension that appears at the end of the page’s URL. MeetMax will remove spaces automatically. You can use hyphens or underscores in place of spaces.
- • Title: This is the public page title that appears in navigation menus.
-
You’ll also see this title in the Attachment menu as you’re setting up batch emails. - Step 4. Choose whether this page will be used as an Email or not.
- If it’s not an email, choose which navigation Menus this page will appear in:
- • Choose whether this will be a custom form for Attendees and/or Companies.
- • If you want to share the URL of this page in links (such as in batch emails), click Public Site.
- • If you’re not sure which menu views you’ll need, select all three options - you can always disable them in the Menu Editor later.
Adding content to the Custom Page
The Content field is optional.
If you’re planning to use your custom page to display a Custom List or Custom Form, you don’t necessarily need to put any content here - though you might at least want to add a heading or description.
If you’re using this page to share other content, you can use the page editor tools to add formatting, images, etc. Click Submit when you’re ready to save:
You can copy and paste content into this field, but doing this from a Word document can create formatting issues. Instead, paste your text into a Notepad app first to remove all formatting. Then copy/paste into the MeetMax editor. | |
If you’re fluent in HTML, click the Source button to edit that code directly. |
Choosing who can see the page
When you created this page, you chose the navigation menus where it will appear. In the example below, our custom page can only be seen when an Attendee logs into MeetMax:
For each checkbox you’ve clicked here, MeetMax will automatically enable this page.
If you want to enable this page for more menus later, you can always edit the page and check more boxes.
To make more adjustments to visibility, head to the Attendee Menu Editor:
In the Menu Editor, you can:
- Make this page visible to only certain types of Attendees.
- Make this page visible only to certain groups of Attendees.
- Enable or disable the page whenever you need.
- Change the page’s default icon.
Managing Custom Pages
To make changes to a page, head back to the Configure tab:
Locate the page in your list. Then use the Action menu to choose Edit:
If you want to delete a page, use the steps above to open it for editing.
With the page form open, you’ll see the Delete button:
If you’ll want to use this page in future, you can leave it in your account, but disable it in the Menu Editor so no one can see it. | |
You can also copy custom pages from an old event to a new one. |
What’s next?
Now that you have a Custom Page, you can use it to:
- Display a Custom List
- Display a Custom Form
- Display Custom Records
- Create a batch email
