Not every guest shows up through Almabase, and we get that. Whether you're managing offline RSVPs, group sales, or VIP sponsors, your actual guest list is often bigger than what’s shown online.

That’s why we’re giving you more control over how your event appears.

✅

You now have the option to hide the attendee count on your event’s landing page — so if the number on Almabase doesn’t reflect the full picture, you can keep it off the page altogether.

This is a new setting added at the event level, and it works independently of the existing “Show registered guests” toggle.

🚀

Whether you're hosting a major gala, a small networking mixer, or something in between — this update helps your event look just as impressive as it really is.

You now have the option to remove the (RSVP No) button from your event pages.

There’s a brand new setting under Event Settings → Guest Experience → RSVP Options called “Allow RSVP No”.

But don’t worry — registered guests can still cancel their registration if plans change. That feature stays put so your capacity and waitlist remain accurate.

This gives you cleaner data and a simpler experience — for both your team and your guests. If you’re only tracking confirmed attendees, or don’t need to know who’s not coming, this toggle keeps things tidy.

To ensure more accurate name data and better personalization, we’ve introduced separate fields for First Name and Last Name during event registration.

Previously, we accepted a single “Full Name” field, which led to inconsistent name formatting—especially for names with middle initials, multiple components, or non-standard structures. This affected name tags, communication, and tracking accuracy.

All event registrations will now collect First Name and Last Name separately.

Both fields are mandatory for every registrant.

In cases where a single name field still exists (e.g. legacy forms), we’ll automatically split the name:

For example, Jean Mary Ann becomes:

First Name: Jean Mary

Last Name: Ann

This change ensures cleaner data and helps deliver a more polished, personalized experience for every attendee.

We heard you loud and clear — sometimes “Cancel” just isn’t enough. Starting now, event admins can fully delete a registrant from an event. That’s right, no more lingering “Canceled” labels, test entries, or email conflicts.

✅

You now have the power to delete a registration directly. This action completely removes the registrant from attendee lists, check-in reports, and related records — no trace for other admins or attendees.

This one's been a long time coming — we’re excited to finally get it in your hands!

We’ve got some good news if you’re using text messaging through Almabase and syncing data with Raiser’s Edge (RE).

✅

You can now sync text communication consent between Almabase and RE! Just like email consent, we’re now making sure text consent stays in sync both ways (pull and push).

This is powered by RE’s solicit codes, and you’ll be able to set this up in the Communication Preferences section of your RE integration mapping.

Bonus: All changes related to this consent will show up under the History tab on the constituent’s profile—so you’ll always know who opted in or out, and when.

🚀

You’ll now have cleaner, more consistent consent data between Almabase and RE. No more second-guessing whether someone opted in or not—especially handy for staying compliant and respectful in your outreach.

Hey there, Admins! We’ve made two handy upgrades to how you communicate with your constituents via text.

Now, every time someone replies to a bulk text you’ve sent out, you’ll get a notification right in your inbox. No more missing important responses or having to manually check each thread.

Timely alerts that help you follow up faster and keep conversations going.

Better engagement tracking and smoother two-way communication with your audience.

You can now choose whether or not to collect texting consent for specific events. This is especially helpful when you already have consent or are working with time-sensitive campaigns.

A new toggle while setting up event-related communications.

More flexibility to tailor your outreach without unnecessary friction.

We’ve enhanced the calendar experience on competitive giving pages!

Previously, you could only save campaign start dates to Google Calendar. Now, you can choose from multiple calendar options including Apple Calendar, Outlook, and more—just like on event pages.

This update makes it easier for your community to stay informed, no matter which calendar tool they prefer.

⏰ This option appears when the campaign has not yet started.

We’ve rolled out a new feature in our events module that enables filtering ability on the 'event attendee list'. Filters are added on the field that is selected to show for the attendees, for example as class year, making it easier to find specific attendees.

Additionally, filtering works seamlessly alongside existing sorting functionality, ensuring a smooth and efficient browsing experience. Try it out today! 🚀

We’re excited to introduce a new time-saving feature in the Events module! Registrants can now duplicate the main registrant’s responses across guest forms for accompanying guests, reducing the need for repetitive data entry. This makes the registration process smoother and more efficient.

Registrants will also have the flexibility to make edits after copying the information, allowing for quick adjustments when needed.

We’re introducing a new way for guests to quickly access their personal event itinerary directly from event-related emails. No more searching through inboxes or navigating multiple steps—your itinerary is now just a click away!

The “” link is now automatically included in all registration confirmation and registration-modified emails, making it easier for guests to access their event details instantly. Additionally, admins now have the flexibility to insert the personal itinerary link into any event-related emails, as it will also be . For example, you can include it in reminder emails to ensure all guests have easy access to their itinerary before the event.

This update ensures guests always have their event details at their fingertips, improving their overall event experience. 🚀
