Article Outline
Two New Message Types
The Upcoming Event Reminder add-on provides two new ways to send messages: before an event or before a datetime. Here’s an explanation of the two new message types that help make this happen.
Automated Upcoming Event Notification
This message type automates sending messages to registrations for an upcoming event. Messages are sent at the threshold you define (eg. 3 days before) prior to the earliest datetime attached to the event. Other datetimes on the event have no bearing on when this message type is triggered. Messages for this message type are sent to approved registrations and are only triggered for upcoming and/or sold out, and published upcoming events.
Automated Upcoming Datetime Notification
This message type automates sending messages to registrations for an upcoming datetime. Messages are sent at the threshold you define (eg. 3 days before) prior to a datetime on an event. Messages for this message type are sent to approved registrations and are only triggered for datetimes on upcoming and/or sold out, and published upcoming events. Note that this will send a message for each datetime on the event.
