Managing Event Types

Event types are the one of the most basic parts of Gift Registry. They define special events, on which customer can receive a gift from other customers.

By default there's three basic events, which you can find at Customers -> Gift Registry -> Events Types grid:

• Birthday
• Wedding
• Baby Shower

These are the most common events, that every customer can have. But you can also define your own event type from the their grid.

Go to Customers -> Gift Registry -> Events Types, and press Add New. You will ne taken to the creation dialog page, which consists of the following fields:

• Title - a title, which will be shown on event selection drop-down menu at customer's account.
• Sort Order - priority, that this event should have. It affects order, in which drop-down menu items are sorted.
• Form Sections - a list of sections - e. q. separately defined set of fields, that should be shown to customer at Registry creation stage, when this event type is selected.
• Active - defines, whether Event Type is active and available for Registry creation.
