Seat your guests
Once you’ve created seating, open Community → Events → Seating and pick the event.
The seating page
- Available Tickets on the left lists ticket holders who aren’t seated yet. New tickets appear here as people get them. When everyone has a seat, you’ll see Everyone is seated.
- Tables on the right show each table’s Host seats and member seats.
- The totals show Hosts / table, Seats / table, Total capacity, Seated, Empty seats, and Unassigned.
Switch between Edit (to move people) and Preview (to see the layout).
Seat someone
Drag a ticket from Available Tickets onto a seat that says Drag a ticket here. Drop it on a host seat to make them the host. You can drag a ticket from any seat to any other, or back to Available Tickets to unseat them.
Add and remove tables
Select Add table to add one. To remove a table, select Remove table on it; anyone seated there goes back to Available Tickets.
Notify guests
Select Send update notification to message everyone with a ticket, like when seating is final.
Download the seating chart
Select Download table data to save a CSV file with each guest’s first and last name, table number, host, and ticket code.
Check-in shows the table
When you check in a ticket with the Community Portal app, the confirmation screen shows the person’s table and host, or Not Assigned if they don’t have a seat yet.
