In RedPodium, you have the ability to create a customized landing page designed to promote your event before registrants even reach the registration process. A landing page allows you to share important event details, highlight key speakers or activities, showcase images or videos, and set the tone for your event — all in one visually appealing, easy-to-navigate space.
Rather than sending visitors directly to a registration form, you can first engage them with a landing page that builds excitement and provides valuable information. From there, you can link directly to your RedPodium registration pages, giving registrants a seamless path to sign up.
In this article, we’ll walk you through how to create a landing page in RedPodium, best practices to make it effective, and tips for making the most out of this powerful feature.

Getting Started
To set up your landing page, you'll start by creating a page that highlights key details about your event without offering registration options. This page is designed to inform and engage visitors before they sign up. Here's how you can create this type of page in RedPodium.
Pro Tip: If you have already collected data through the RedPodium page you want to turn into a landing page, do not delete any of the fields that have collected data. Instead, we recommend adding the page break above the fields that have already collected data. Then use an action that reads similar to "Date is after 'yesterday' hide Page Break.
Once you have added and hidden the page break, any fields under the page break will not appear on your live page.
From the Pages screen, click the pencil icon under the page you want to edit

Hover over the location where you want your landing page to stop, and click the green + icon
