Creating and Managing Registrations Manually
PheedLoop’s registration system is a powerful feature that allows for both attendee registration as well as manual registration through the Event Dashboard. Attendees can typically register themselves on the event website. However as an Event Admin, you are able to manually create and process a registration using the backend.
Manually Creating Registrations
- From the Event Dashboard, navigate to Registration > Orders
- Above the orders table, select Create
- Fill out Email Address, First Name, and Last Name
- Every attendee profile is based on the email address which is registered, once an email has been used once, it can no longer be used to create more profiles.
- Under Category, select a category which will be associated with the attendee
- The rest of the fields in the registration are not required and are fully optional.
- Select Save Changes
Quick Tip - if someone has an incomplete registration already in the system, you can use that incomplete profile to create your manual registration. What's important is that you must complete it. To do this, click into an incomplete registration > Actions > Change Status > Completed.

- Select Save Changes
The Registration Report will now include a column indicating if a registration has been canceled. This column will include a Yes if the registration is canceled and will be blank otherwise.
Now that your report is created, you will want to generate the report in order to download it.
