Weekly meeting series: register once, check in weekly

Use this for a series like GUIDE, where the same people meet every week. You create one event for the whole series. Each delegate registers (and, if needed, is approved) once. Each meeting gets its own check-in list, so attendance and CME credits are recorded per week and add up automatically.

Do it on demo.wiredin.events first. Register yourself once as a delegate, then repeat on live.

Before you start

Check the organizer. Its name and email are what delegates see, and an event's organizer cannot be changed after the event is created. See Run your first event.

Set it up

1. Create the event. Events > Create Event. Use the series name. Start Date & Time = the first meeting. End Date & Time (optional) = the last meeting. Click Continue Setup.
2. Event Settings > Event Features: turn on Require approval for registrations only if you need to screen who joins. Leave DTCM and Abstracts off. Click Save.
3. Event Settings > Email & Templates: set the Sender name and Sender email for the series. Click Save. Leave Advanced settings closed.
4. Registrations & Add-ons: create one free registration type, for example "Series Registration". One registration covers every meeting.
5. Check-In Lists: click Create Check-In List once per meeting.

Field	What to enter
Name	Week 1 - 16 Oct, Week 2 - 23 Oct, and so on
Which registrations should be associated with this check-in list?	The series registration type
Activation date / Expiration date	That meeting's start and end, so staff cannot check people into the wrong week
CME credit hours	The hours for that meeting. Leave blank if it is not accredited

Enter CME credit hours only after the accrediting body has confirmed them.

6. Share the link once. Send it to everyone. People who join mid-series can still register while the event is live.

Each week

1. Open that week's check-in list and click Open Check-In Page.
2. Scan or search delegates as they arrive and click Check In.
3. CME Report shows each delegate's running total across the weeks.

Certificates: what works today

Need	Works today?
One certificate at the end of the series, with total CME credits	Yes. Certificates > send to delegates who attended
A certificate after each week	Partly. The certificate shows the running total, not that week's credits. Attended only means attended any week, so you must select that week's attendees by hand

Need a certificate every week? Raise it before the first one is due. It needs a decision, not a setting.
