“Who’s Coming Back”

Wake Network Event Attendees Block

The Wake Network Event Attendees Block block makes it easy for event owners to add a “who’s coming back” list to any webpage. This was initially created for Homecoming but has been used for a number of other events. If you would like it turned on for your site put in a request.

The block allows for pulling a list of attendees based on the registration form slug for your event.

Block Settings

The block has four settings. Each one is explained in more detail below.

Using the Wake Network Event Attendees Block

The Wake Network Event Attendees Block can be added to any page as a Gutenburg block. To use it, find the event slug on the registration form for your event. For example, if your registration form URL is

https://wakenetwork.wfu.edu/events/wake-women-s-weekend-2024-0010499

then the slug is

wake-women-s-weekend-2024-0010499

Add that slug to the Event Registration Form Slug field.

Class Year

This is two separate settings. Enable Show By Class Year is a switch that turns the feature on, and it is off by default. Turning it on reveals a Class Year text field, where you enter a single four digit year such as 2005 or 1993. If you leave the switch off you will not see the Class Year field at all.

Filtering

When Enable Filtering Event Attendees is selected, users can search for attendees by name, year, or designations.
