Managing Custom Fields: How to Add new Fields to a User's Profile

What are Custom Fields?
Custom Fields are data categories that allow you to add custom data to your platform. In this case, custom fields will enable you to collect specific data from all attendees who use the Event Tech Hub.

1. To make edits to the event platform page, log into the event platform and access the admin page

EVA Tip: You can only make changes to the event platform with Admin access


2. In the left column, click on Tools, and in the drop-down menu that appears, click Manage Custom Fields



3. Click the New Field button.



4. Determine whether your field is a "Master Field" or not

EVA Tip: A "Master Field" is a field that is not dependent on another.
An example of a "Master Field" would be: "Do you have any dietary restrictions?"
An example of a field dependent on that Master Field would be: "What type of dietary restrictions do you have?"


5. Enter the Field Title. In this case, it would be the question you want to ask attendees.



6. Select the Field Type. In this case, it would be the type of answer attendees can give.



7. To save your changes and add the Custom Field, click the Save button. To discard your changes click the Close button
