Ensure Email Reminders Are Enabled for a Specific Event

  • Log in to your Manager Portal and select Events from the top rail.

  • Choose your event and click on Attendee Communication in the left rail.

  • Verify that the Send Automatic Event Reminders to Attendees option is checked.

    • Note: This uses your system-wide reminder email template.

    • Navigate to Settings > Confirmation & E-tickets > View/Modify Email Templates.

    • Select the Event Reminder template from the dropdown.

    • Make your changes and click Save.


Setting Up Post-Event Emails: Automated and Manual Options

A. Automated Post-Event Follow-Up Email

  • SimpleTix includes an automated Post-Event Follow Up template.

  • To modify this template:

    • Go to Settings > Confirmation & E-tickets > View/Modify Email Templates.

    • Select the Post-Event Follow Up template.

    • Changes here will automatically update future follow-ups.

  • Ensure that during event creation, you enable the option for automatic post-event follow-up (if available in your event settings dropdown) so that attendees receive the follow-up without manual intervention.

B. Manually Scheduled Email Blast After the Event

  • Log in to your Manager Portal and select the event.

  • In the left rail under Attendee Communication, click the Actions button (usually in the upper right) and choose Create Email Blast.

  • Under More Options, enable Multiple Time Selections (or Display Past Event Times) if your event spans multiple sessions or days. This allows you to target specific event times.

  • Customize your email subject and content.

  • To dispatch the email:

    • Click Send Email for immediate dispatch, or

    • Click Save if you wish to schedule it for later.

  • After sending, the email blast will appear in your Scheduled Emails section with a status indicator.

    • Click the envelope icon in its row to review its subject and body content as confirmation.

Managing Email Reminders for Multi-Day or Recurring Events

  • Reminders are tied to the specific event time.

  • For multi-day or recurring events, consider creating individual event times for each session if different communications are needed.

  • Alternatively, use the More Options in the Attendee Communication area to target specific dates and times.

  • This approach avoids sending multiple or conflicting reminders and ensures each session receives the correct communication.


Handling Zoom Link Details for Multi-Session Events

  • For events involving multiple sessions or Zoom links, ensure that the correct link is sent to attendees.

  • Use custom fields or include the Zoom link directly in the event description so that the correct session details are included in the email templates.

  • If a Zoom link needs to be updated post-scheduling, resend the event communication using a manual email blast through the event’s Attendee Communication section.


Contact Event Organizer Email – Clarification

  • The Contact Event Organizer email is managed within Settings > Store.

  • This email not only goes to the site owner but can also be customized according to your needs at the store level.

  • When customizing, ensure that changes are saved correctly and note that this setting applies site-wide.
