### **Adding the Add to Calendar Widget to the Core Registration Website**

You can add the Add to Calendar button directly on your registration site built with Core Registration, enabling attendees to save your event to their calendars at the moment they register or browse the registration page.

#### 1. Select the Website Builder

1. Navigate to: **Website → Website Builder / Pages** in your EventMobi event admin.
2. Choose the registration site built by Core (if you have multiple websites, select the one you wish to add the button to).

#### 2. Open the Page You Want to Edit

1. Within the Website Builder, select the page you wish to add the widget to (for example: the landing page, “Thank You” page or confirmation page).
2. Enter **Edit** mode for that page layout.

#### 3. Insert the Add to Calendar Widget

1. In the page editor, locate where you wish the button to appear — e.g., below the registration confirmation text or next to the session selection.
2. Click **Add Row** (or select an existing row if you prefer).
3. From the content options, select **Set up Add to Calendar** to insert the widget.

#### 4. Configure the Widget Details

Once the widget is placed, a configuration dialog appears. Populate the following fields:

- **Calendar Title**: Enter your event name (e.g., “Annual Leadership Summit 2026”).
- **Start Date & Time**: Set the exact date/time when the event begins.
- **End Date & Time**: Set the correct end date/time (including time zone).
- **Location**: Add the venue or “Virtual” if it’s an online event.
- **Description** (optional): Enter a short description which will appear in the attendee’s calendar entry.
- Once complete, click **Save**. The Add to Calendar button will now appear on your registration website page.

**👆 Best Practices:**

- Place the button **above the fold** or immediately following a call-to-action to increase visibility.
- Make sure your event time-zone is accurate and clearly defined — attendees may be in different zones.
- If your event spans multiple days or sessions, ensure the start and end dates reflect the full event duration for clarity.
- Consider pairing the widget with on-page messaging like: “Click to save this event to your calendar!” to prompt action.

### **Adding the Add to Calendar Widget to Registration Confirmation Emails**

Registration confirmation emails can also include the Add to Calendar button, allowing attendees to save the event immediately after registering.

#### **1. Navigate to Registration Confirmation Email**

1. Go to:  **Registration → Emails**

Navigate to the default confirmation email template, select edit.

#### **2. Add the Add to Calendar Widget**

1. Enable **Add-to-Calendar buttons.**
2. Click **Save Details** button**.**

The button will appear alongside existing confirmation details such as the **QR code**.

### **Best Practices**

- Place the widget near the top or bottom for maximum visibility.
- Use clear event titles so the calendar entry is easily identifiable.
- Double-check the event’s timezone settings before saving.
- If running a multi-day event, ensure your start and end dates reflect the full event duration.
