Importing Guests via CSV

Click the Import CSV button (upload icon) to bulk-import contacts.

CSV Format

The CSV file should have columns matching the guest fields. The first row should be headers:

Bob Johnson,bob@example.com,,

Required columns: name, email. All other columns are optional.

Import Process

1. Drag and drop your CSV file onto the upload area, or click to select a file
2. The file is uploaded and processed immediately
3. On success, you see:
   • "X guest(s) imported successfully"
   • "Y row(s) skipped (duplicates or invalid)" if any rows were skipped
4. Close the modal to see the updated guest list

Note: Guests with duplicate email addresses are skipped, not overwritten.

Bulk Inviting Guests to an Event

You can invite multiple guests at once from the guest list.

From the Guests Page

1. Select guests using the checkboxes (or use the header checkbox to select all)
2. A bar appears showing "X selected"
3. Click Invite to Event

Field	Type	Required	Description
Event	Dropdown	Yes	Only published events are shown
Ticket Type	Dropdown	Yes	Available ticket types for the selected event. Shows name and price
Quantity	Number	Yes (default: 1)	Number of tickets to offer each guest

After submitting:

• A success message shows how many guests were invited
• Guests already invited to the same event are skipped
• Invited guests appear in the event's Guests tab with "Pending" status

From the Event Detail Page

You can also invite guests from the event's Guests tab using the + Invite to Event button. This works the same way but the event is pre-selected.

Invitation Workflow

The full invitation flow from start to finish:

1. Add contacts to your guest database (manually or via CSV)
2. Invite to event by selecting guests and choosing an event + ticket type
3. Send invitations from the event's Guests tab (select guests, click Send Invitations)
4. Guests receive an email with a unique RSVP link
5. Guest clicks the link and sees event details, offered tickets, and a quantity selector
6. Guest accepts (tickets are generated, guest is auto-authenticated) or declines
7. You see the updated status in the event's Guests tab

Resending: Click the send icon on any guest row in the event's Guests tab to resend the invitation email. A new token is generated (the old link stops working).
