This page definition controls the Registrations page of the "Adding Exhibitor" and "Editing Exhibitor" online registration wizard.

Page Overview
This screenshot displays a sample Registrations page with components labeled.
Figure 857: Labelled Sample Registration Page
The Registrations grid is populated by the Registration Groups you defined for the Event under Event Management / Edit Event Window / Exhibitor Setup / Exhibitor Registrations.
•A Registration Group will only appear online if its Available Online setting has been selected.
•A Registration Group will only be visible to exhibitor registrants belonging to an applicable Exhibitor Type for that Group. This is one of the reasons the Exhibitor Type page is particularly important in the online exhibitor registration process.
The Registrations grid is mostly hard-coded, but you can determine the appearance of some components in the Page Definition.
The hard-coded page header will be "Adding Exhibitor" or "Editing Exhibitor", depending on whether the Exhibitor is creating a new registration or editing an existing registration.

Mandatory Registrations Validation Message
This is the message dialog that appears if Exhibitor Registration is mandatory for an event, and the online registrant attempts to click "Next" on the Registrations page without selecting a registration item.
Whether Exhibitor Registration is mandatory for an Event depends on the Make Registrations Mandatory setting under Exhibitor Settings in an Event's Online Registration Settings. See the topic Exhibitor Settings under Event Management / Edit Event Window / Online Registration Settings.
This screenshot of the Exhibitor Registration page demonstrates a sample Mandatory Registrations Validation Message.

This setting determines what appears in the Registrations grid when a Registration Group has a charge of zero.
