Overview
Collecting replies for an event by hand gets messy fast. MEC RSVP Events Addon puts the process inside your Modern Events Calendar setup. Visitors submit an RSVP form on the event page, and you see each response, track who is coming and keep attendee details in one place. A single RSVP can cover a whole party, and you can set a maximum party size to avoid overbooking.
The addon also gives you control over who can respond and how. You can require login, restrict submissions by email, IP address or prior bookings, and turn on Google Captcha for spam protection. Forms and settings can be customized globally or for each event. Notifications, a thank you page redirect, and a cancellation window let you shape the experience before and after the event.
Features
- RSVP for a whole party: Attendees can reply for several people in their party at once, which keeps group responses simple. A maximum party size per RSVP helps you stay within venue limits.
- Advanced form builder: Build RSVP forms with additional fields and variations so you collect the details each event needs. Forms can be set globally or customized separately for each event.
- Verification and confirmation emails: Automated email verification and confirmation steps help make sure RSVPs come from real people, and guests receive a message confirming their response.
- RSVP count and remaining slots: Show visitors how many RSVPs have been received and how many slots remain, so they can see availability on the event page.
- Guest list name bubbles: Display attendee names as name bubbles on the event page, giving visitors a view of who has already responded.
- Custom notifications: Send tailored messages to guests based on different RSVP actions. You can also email your RSVP list directly with announcements and event updates.
- RSVP manager shortcode: Logged-in users can view, update and cancel their RSVPs from your site using a shortcode. Guests can change their responses as often as needed.
- Access limits and spam protection: Restrict RSVPs by email, IP address or prior bookings, require login, and enable Google Captcha to keep bots and spam out of your forms.
Best for
- Sites running Modern Events Calendar that need RSVPs
- Organizers of private gatherings and large public events
- Teams managing guest lists and attendee limits in WordPress
