Allow Events navigation item to show up for non-logged in users.

Grace Chen 4 months ago in Events / Programming updated by Kim Lehman (Product Owner) 1 month ago 3

Currently Events navigation doesn't show up for non-logged in users. To help our businesses grow, we want to entice non-logged in users by showing them all of programs. Then, when they try to register - it asks them to create an account or log-in.


The core functionality seems to exist already in your back-end because I can make a Events list widget that shows up for non-logged in users! 

THIS is incredibly important to our business as well because we are NOT member-based. We are open to the public and requiring a login to see availability and pricing is not a good model to increase online conversions. It's a barrier. PLEASE allow non-logged in online visitors to search for availability and pricing, begin checkout and complete an online transaction and only at the end (once we have them converted) ask them to create a login or checkout as a guest.

100% agree!!!

Hi there, this is something you're able to setup without having to use widgets. You can use the Event Filters feature in Website Settings to create customized (or the most general) list of events. Once it's saved, you'll receive a URL that can be used to publicly to advertise these events. That URL can then be used to create a Header Link. When header links are created, you can decide if they're viewable to all users, anonymous users, or logged in users. Choose Anonymous if you want them to see the heading links as they do now and this will just advertise those events to your non-logged in users. 

Another plus of these event filtered lists is that they function in the app too. So when a player is on the CR app they can easily get to quick lists of events that you create for them. Widget lists aren't made for a mobile experience, so these lists are a great way to continue use whether the player is on a mobile device/app or desktop view. 

We did a webinar on this in early January. Here's the link to youtube and learn how to set this up!
