This article is for Connect site managers. These notifications refer to standard events, not advanced events. Click here to learn the difference between the two.
Your site's automated notifications include five messages that relate to agency events:
- RSVP Notice to Agency goes to the agency manager.
- Event RSVP Notice to User, Notify Users Week After RSVP Event Ends, and Upcoming Event Reminder go to users who have used the RSVP feature to respond to an event.
- When a user who has RSVP'ed to an event and later unregisters, Unregistered Event Attendee Confirmation goes to the user, and Notification of Unregistered Event Attendee goes to the agency manager.
A sixth notification, "Event Notification for Agency Fans," is classified as a standard template. More information on that template is available here.
