Custom fields allow you to capture additional exhibitor information (e.g. text, checkboxes, radio buttons) and display it on the exhibitor profile page.
Step 1: Go to Field Setup
- Navigate to Modules > Exhibitors
- Click More > Field Setup
Step 2: Create a Field Group (Optional)
You can organise custom fields into sections:
- Click Create Field Group to create a new section, or
- Use the General dropdown to add the field to an existing section
Step 3: Create the Custom Field
- Click Create Custom Question
- Select a Field Type (e.g. checkbox, text, radio, dropdown)
- Add your Label (this is the title of the custom field)
Field Settings
- Untick Mandatory Field (if you do not want to force users to complete it)
- Adjust Max Length if required (for text fields)
- If using multi-select field types (e.g. checkbox), configure the available options
- Click Save
Step 4: Add the Field to the Exhibitor Profile Layout
Once the field is created, you must enable it on the exhibitor profile:
- Go to Modules > Exhibitors
- Click Exhibitor Options
- Go to Layout Settings
- Open Entry Settings
- Find the Additional Fields section
- Tick the custom field you have just created
- Click Submit
- Click Save
Result
The custom field will now appear on exhibitor profiles and will display any data entered against it.
Important Note
If you need to change the styling or layout design of how custom fields appear on the exhibitor profile, this must be raised with the Showoff support team.
Summary
Once created and enabled in both Field Setup and Layout Settings, your custom field will be visible and populated on the exhibitor profile page.
