Practical guides for creating better events.
Clear answers for the everyday HereNow workflows: create an event, edit the page, publish, collect registrations, manage attendees, prepare paid events, and get unstuck.
Choose the workflow you need now.
Each guide is written around one real task, so you can find the setting you need and understand what happens after you use it.
Create your first event with AI
Start with one sentence, let HereNow draft the page, then review the details that matter before you publish.
Read guidePreview and publish your event page
Preview the page like an attendee, resolve blockers, then publish with the right visibility setting.
Read guideSet up your curator profile
Your profile is the trust layer behind every event page. Set it up before serious promotion.
Read guideCollect RSVPs without requiring attendee accounts
Attendees can register as guests. Ask for only what you need, then manage the list from your event tools.
Read guideManage registrations and export attendee data
Use the registration dashboard to review attendee status, check in participants, and export the list when needed.
Read guideCreate your first paid event
Paid events need more trust than free RSVPs. Finish organizer setup before opening checkout.
Read guideConnect Stripe payouts
Connect Stripe before relying on paid checkout, and understand what HereNow can and cannot verify for payouts.
Read guideCreate and manage paid tickets
Set ticket name, price, quantity, sale window, and status before you publish a paid event.
Read guideUnderstand free RSVPs vs paid tickets in HereNow
Free RSVPs reduce friction. Paid tickets add buyer commitment, payment setup, and a higher trust bar.
Read guideWho owns attendee data on HereNow
Registration data is operational data for the host. Handle it carefully and use exports only when needed.
Read guideAsk AI support or report a bug
Clear support requests are faster to diagnose. Include the route, event context, expected result, and actual result.
Read guideShare your event link and check the public page
A published page is not finished until you check the attendee view and confirm the registration path works.
Read guideChoose and use an event template
Templates give you a safe starting structure. Pick the closest format, then customize the details that make the event yours.
Read guideEdit an event draft before publishing
Before publishing, edit the draft like an attendee will read it: promise first, logistics second, registration last.
Read guideSet capacity, waitlist, and approval rules
Capacity controls how many people can join. Waitlist and approval settings help you handle overflow or curated attendance.
Read guideAdd custom registration questions
Custom questions help with logistics, but every extra field adds friction. Keep the form short and purposeful.
Read guideChange event details after publishing
Small copy edits are simple. Changes to time, location, price, capacity, or format need extra care and clear communication.
Read guideClose registration or cancel attendee signups
Closing registration stops new signups. It does not replace clear communication with people who already registered.
Read guideCheck in attendees at the event
A simple check-in process helps you welcome people quickly and keep attendance records accurate.
Read guideCreate an event recap after the event
A recap helps the event keep working after it ends. Keep it accurate, useful, and respectful of attendees.
Read guideUnderstand fees, host net, and payout timing
Ticket price is not the same as what reaches your bank account. Review fees and payout status before you promise timing.
Read guideWhat Stripe handles and what HereNow handles
HereNow helps you create paid events. Stripe handles sensitive account verification, bank details, and payout rails.
Read guidePublish a free event without Stripe
Stripe is for paid tickets. Free RSVP events can use HereNow registration without payment setup.
Read guideWhat attendees see after RSVP or payment
Attendees need to know whether they are confirmed, pending, waitlisted, paid, or need to take another step.
Read guideExport or delete event and attendee data
Exports are useful for operations. Deletion requests need care, identity context, and the right support path.
Read guideKeep payment and identity information safe
Sensitive financial and identity details belong in secure provider flows, not ordinary messages.
Read guideWhat the AI support assistant can help with
AI support is best for guidance and triage. Sensitive account, payment, and data requests may need human review.
Read guideTroubleshoot Stripe account action required
Stripe action required usually means the connected account needs more information inside Stripe.
Read guideTroubleshoot paid tickets not appearing
Ticket display usually depends on event publish state, ticket settings, capacity, payment readiness, and page visibility.
Read guideTroubleshoot event page visibility and sharing
Most visibility issues come from draft state, unlisted links, wrong URLs, or viewing the page while logged in as the host.
Read guideTroubleshoot attendee registration problems
Registration issues usually come from capacity, closed registration, form validation, payment state, or link problems.
Read guideCancel, hide, or unpublish an event
Changing visibility is not the same as cancelling. If people registered, communicate directly.
Read guideAdd co-hosts or collaborators to an event
Co-hosts can help run an event, but access should match the work they actually need to do.
Read guideUpload event photos, slides, or resources
Resources can make an event more valuable after it ends, but privacy and permission come first.
Read guideUnderstand event analytics
Analytics should help you improve the next event, not make false promises from tiny samples.
Read guideDuplicate an event or create a repeat series
Repeating an event is faster than starting over, but stale dates, locations, prices, and capacity can create confusion.
Read guideSubmit a feature request product can act on
The best feature requests explain the user job and impact, not only the button someone wants.
Read guideUse a check-in QR code for event check-in
QR check-in can speed up arrival, but the attendee list and backup process still matter.
Read guideManage event reminders and email preferences
Event reminders help attendees remember what they joined. Email preferences help keep communication respectful.
Read guideWhat emails attendees receive
Attendee emails are there to confirm, remind, update, and follow up on the event someone joined.
Read guideHandle refunds for paid event tickets
Refunds affect attendee trust and payment records. Review the order before promising an outcome.
Read guideManage waitlist and approval decisions
Waitlists and approval can protect event quality, but they need timely decisions and clear communication.
Read guideChange time, date, or location safely
Time and location changes affect real plans. Update the page, then communicate the change clearly.
Read guideCreate an event from a poster or image
Poster extraction can save time, but the host should still verify text, dates, location, and registration settings.
Read guideCreate an event from an existing link
A URL can speed up setup, but you still need rights, current details, and a fresh registration flow.
Read guideChoose or update your event cover image
A good cover image supports the event promise. The text still needs to carry the details.
Read guideSet up brand settings for your event pages
Brand settings help repeat hosts look consistent, but clarity for attendees still comes first.
Read guideCreate and manage host organizations
Organizations help teams host together, but access and attendee data should stay intentional.
Read guideManage HereNow Pro subscription and billing
Use Pro when you need paid ticketing and revenue tools. Check billing before launching paid events.
Read guideSign in and recover account access
Account access problems are stressful. Start with the email and sign-in method you used for the event.
Read guideCancel or change your registration
If you cannot attend, act early so the host can manage capacity, waitlist, and event-day planning.
Read guideAdd an event to your calendar
Calendar entries help, but the public event page should remain the latest source of truth.
Read guideSend event updates to attendees
Good updates are short, specific, and tied to the event someone registered for.
Read guideFollow curators and manage curator updates
Following a curator helps you hear about future events without turning every event registration into broad marketing.
Read guideUse developer settings and API tokens safely
Developer tokens can act like keys to your account or event data. Keep them private.
