The Public Event Page and Guest View

Publishing an event creates a public page at a short link like signupbubble.com/e/your-event. That page is the whole guest experience: the details, live availability, who is already signed up, and the signup form, all in one scroll. There is no app to install and no login wall.

Pages are built mobile-first and support light and dark mode automatically, matching each visitor's device preference.

The header can be a solid color band (no image), your own photo or flyer, a reused photo from another event, or Bubble art. For your own photos, Banner cover fills the top with the title overlaid, and Full flyer shows the full image or the crop you chose, with the title below. Use Adjust image to position a banner or choose a flyer frame. You can switch those styles anytime without re-uploading. Bubble art always uses the cover layout. Without an image, you get the purple solid-color band shown below. Your description sits under the title, followed by scannable pills for headcount, date, time, and location. A Several dates and times event shows the first-to-last-day window instead of a single time. Addresses link straight to Google Maps. If a poll is open, guests see a vote card on the same page. A date poll shows a Time/Date poll open badge in place of the fixed date and time pills until you lock a winner. A choice poll (or a mix of dates and choices) shows a Poll open badge and does not add a clock or calendar.

When show names publicly is on, the page lists everyone who has signed up, along with their comment and party size if you collect those. Long lists collapse after 20 names with a show-more control. This social proof is often what nudges the next person to grab a spot.

Prefer to keep the list private? Turn show names off and visitors only see availability counts, or use private mode to hide the details entirely. See Privacy and Visibility Controls.

Below the details, guests see each slot as a card with a progress bar, spots remaining, and names if public name visibility is on. They pick a slot on those cards, then enter name and email in the form below. The form does not list the slots again. Full slots stay visible but cannot be selected, so guests understand why a spot is gone rather than hitting a dead form. The form asks only for what you enabled: name and email always, plus comment, phone, party size, and custom questions if you turned them on.

Organizers can add an optional reference photo to each slot to show what to bring or make. Guests can select the photo or View photo to see it larger. Photo additions, replacements, and removals reach guests after the organizer presses Save. On private events, only confirmed attendees using their private event link can see reference photos. See reference photos for items.

The full signup experience is covered in Signing Up Without an Account, and slot behavior in Slots, RSVPs, and Capacity.
