Every event has a page on theground.io/events/public/…. The Information tab of the event dashboard is where you preview it and copy its links.

What attendees see#

Top to bottom, the event page shows:

  1. Poster (your 4:5 photo), event name and your organization name and logo (links to the organization page).
  2. Date & time (start → end, or To be Announced) and the venue with a Show map link.
  3. Spots – "15 spots", "14 going" or "Unlimited spots", depending on capacity and the public RSVP list.
  4. Price block – Free, or the ticket price. Early bird shows the reduced price until its deadline; group discounts show "× 2 or more – HKD 320.00" style tiers; with multiple ticket types, each ticket type is listed with its own price and description.
  5. Join button – Sign in to Request to Join / Request to Join / Join. The wording depends on whether the visitor is logged in and whether the event requires approval. Once the sign-up deadline has passed or the event is full or cancelled, joining is closed.
  6. Share with friends – the visitor's own share buttons.
  7. Event details – your description, exactly as formatted in the admin.
  8. Venue with a map, Hosted by (the event admins), Who's going (the RSVP list, or "Hidden by the organizer") and Contact information (the organization phone and the event contact e-mail).

Joining from the attendee's side#

  1. The attendee signs in to theground.io (Google or e-mail – the same account system as the admin).
  2. They click Join / Request to Join, pick the number of tickets (group tickets) or their sessions / ticket type, apply a promo code if they have one, and fill in your sign-up form.
  3. If approval is required, their status becomes Pending until you approve them.
  4. Paid events: they pay by card / Apple Pay / Google Pay through Stripe, or follow your offline payment instructions and upload a screenshot.
  5. Once approved (and paid), they get a ticket with a QR code in My events – that is what you scan at the door.
