Howdy,

I am trying to embed an Event registration form on a marketing page. I have tried the following approaches with no real success..

1) Create Event Form,

2) Make it go live

3) Try to add to a Marketing page

Outcome: Can't select it (besides its not linked to the event in any way)

Other approach (more successful, but still fails)
1) Create Event Form

2) Make it go live

3) Go to Live Event and go to related "Form Pages"

4) Create the Form (this creates a Form Page that is hosting the Form)

5) Copy the Div & Javascript (so basically your normal external form hosting

6) Create a new Marketing Page

7) Copy content into Marketing Page

8) Go Live

Outcome:
1) Page has the form (Yah!)
2) Form submissions create Event registrations (Yay Twice!!!)
3) Form throws an error to the user when they register instead of a thank you message for registering :-( (BOO!)

Error:

Which looks to be some kind of CORS error :

Because we are still configuring things out we are running on a default portal URL (so XYZ.microsoftcrmportals.com)

Any suggestions

Ideally we would like our Marketing department to be able to drop marketing registration forms into any Marketing Page as they need... But for now, just doing it once during this POC would be nice ;-)..

Thanks all

Hi Joshua,

We should associate the form to a specific event record.

Then the default event registration form will be changed to marketing form:

To embed the form to a marketing page, due to currently there isn't a page type called "event registration",

thus what you have done is right -- we need to copy the script to marketing page manually, but we should copy the script of form hosting field instead.(I circled the field in the first screenshot)

Below is my process:

1. Select a "landing page" type template.

2. Find the default form block, remove the attribute, paste the script and divs into that div.

3. The form has been embedded in marketing page

I can receive success message after submission.

Regards,

Clofly

That was the difference, I kind of went the back way round by adding the form to the event via related entities.... When I followed your way I got the option to copy the javascript right from the event entity rather than from the hosted form tab on the form..

Thanks!!
