Step 3, Add the InGo Widget Unique IDs

  • The Social Widget ID goes in the third field.
  • And, finally, the Confirmation Widget ID goes in the last field.
  • Click "save" and you're ready for Step 3! See below for visual guidance.

Remember that each widget ID is unique.  Use widget IDs from the Attendee / Registrant path.

Step 5 - Remove the "Register" Link from the event navigation

  1. Navigate back to the "Pages" menu and remove the Swoogo Registration Flow button from being visible, uncheck the box.
    IMPORTANT NOTE: This step is required to ensure that everyone goes through the InGo Login Widget to obtain the greatest possible social reach for your event. See below for visual guidance.

Best Practices and Notes

  • Make sure the InGo Activator is visually the most important item on the page.
  • Ensure the InGo Activator is above the fold.
  • Ensure that the InGo Activator is on your starting page of registration.
  • It is VERY IMPORTANT that you install just the InGo Activator on your homepage or other page that exists outside of the registration flow. This is now your starting page for "registration."


Step 6, Adding the InGo Social Widget To Your Confirmation Page

  1. Click on the "Website" top tab, then navigate to "Pages > Registration > Confirmation."
  2. Click on the "Confirmation" title to access the layout of the Confirmation page.
  3. Next, click on big "Plus" or "Add Content" Button right below the "Pages" button in the top left.
  4. Click and drag the InGo Amplifier (Social Sharing) Widget onto this page to be installed at the top of the page. See below for visual guidance.

InGo Amplifier Best Practices

  • Install the Amplifier Widget above the fold and clearly visible.
  • Keep the Amplifier Widget in it's default state, which shows the "invites" tab first. Remember, we want people to send invites and encourage their friends and colleagues to join you at the event.

That's it, you've installed InGo! Here's some helpful tips to ensure a high-quality installation:

  • Ensure you have different widget IDs for each widget in the "Integrations" section on Swoogo
  • If you have multiple InGo events, be advised that InGo Widget IDs change from widget to widget, but ALSO from event to event. DO NOT USE OR RE-USE THE SAME WIDGETS ON A DIFFERENT EVENT.
