In some cases, you may need to have a registration form, which is not visible on your public event page. For example, you may need such a form to send out to sponsored participants, or to temporary staff you recruit to help in the preparation and organization of your event. Indico.UN provides the option to set a form as private, which will hide the form from the event page, and allow you to send a secret link to the form either outside of the system, or using the invitations feature.

To create a hidden registration form

1. On the event management area navigate to Organisation > Registration.
2. Click Create form.
3. In the Title field, enter a meaningful name of the form and keep the remaining settings as default.
4. Click Create.
   You are redirected to the management area of your new form.
5. Click the Edit button beside General Settings.
6. Switch the Private toggle on.
   
7. Scroll down and click Save.
   A blue box with a Copy secret link button appears on top of the form’s management area.
   
8. You still have to schedule or start the form, just like any other form. To learn how, see Open registration.

To share your hidden registration form

• Outside of Indico.UN, simply click the Copy secret link button and paste the link when you send the form to your nominated participants.
• From Indico.UN, use the invitations feature, available in the form’s management area by clicking Manage beside Invitations. A link to the form will be automatically sent with your invitation messages. To learn more about sending invitations, see Inviting participants.
