Lock profile fields: Granular profile edit control

Event organizers using external registration systems often face challenges when it comes to managing participant data. With our new more granular Profile Editing, you’ll gain unprecedented control over which profile fields participants can edit in Grip. This enhancement ensures that your event runs smoothly, while still providing flexibility for your attendees to personalize their experience.

Why this matters:

• Enhanced control for organizers
  Currently, using a blanket profile editing lock restricts all updates in Grip, preventing valuable participant data from being updated. This is great when profile data changes should be restricted to an external registration system, but also hinders participants from completing essential onboarding questions or updating their profile images.
  With Granular Profile Edit Control, you can selectively lock specific fields, ensuring accuracy while allowing participants to enhance their profiles where appropriate.

• Tailored participant experience
  By allowing participants to update certain fields—like profile images—while protecting critical data, you create a more personalized experience. This control helps you maintain the integrity of your participant list and ensures that every attendee receives relevant information, enhancing engagement and satisfaction.

What you’ll love about it:

With Granular Profile Edit Control, you can:

• Selectively enable or disable editing: Customize which fields participants can edit, such as profile images, while keeping sensitive information, like names or emails, secure.

• Convenience of a master toggle: Easily lock the entire profile when needed, while still having the flexibility to allow specific fields to be editable.

• Full control over default and custom fields: Manage both standard and custom fields with ease, tailoring the participant experience to fit the unique needs of your event.

Your benefits at a glance

• Reduce data gaps: By allowing certain fields to be edited, you’ll ensure all relevant information is captured, leading to a richer event experience.

• Enhance security and integrity: Protect key participant data from manipulation, maintaining the reliability of your registration process.

• Simplified management: Make updates easier for both your team and attendees, streamlining the overall event management process.

Be part of the change!

We’re excited about how Granular Profile Edit Control will empower you to create more personalized and engaging experiences for your participants. With this feature, you’ll have the tools needed to enhance data management while providing attendees with a platform to showcase their unique profiles.
