{% hint style="info" %}
Is the field you want to include in your registration form not in here? Add User Input and choose under Data type --Add new-- and add your new field here.
{% endhint %}

*\*The exhibitor crew refers to the users who belong to the company stand and assist in managing the stand and interacting with visitors at an event. In the app, they have the ability to edit the details of the company page and can be tagged as exhibitors.*

*\*\** When a user completes several steps of the registration form but does not finish the process, the system automatically assigns them a "Pending Registration" tag. If the user later completes their registration, this tag will be removed. Users with a pending registration will receive one reminder email 12 hours later, and you can also email them manually by including the tag when sending an email from the user overview.

When choosing 'User input', you can fill in a title for this data field in the top left box. This will be the text within the text box in the final form, so the attendees can see what they have to fill in where:

More information about the different user input fields, can be found in [this article](https://knowledge-base.letsgetdigital.com/adding-users-and-ticketing/registration-forms/registration-form-user-input) in the knowledge base.

Optionally, you can also enter a 'Tooltip' text. Which will be below the text box and serves as an explanation to the field, if necessary. The following example shows a 'User input' field "Email" with "Email" with "Please fill in your Email address!" as tooltip text:

## Group Form Elements

The group form elements allow you to group the different elements that you have added to the registration form. This will allow the fields to be visible next to each other (in groups) rather than below each other. You can set this up by:

1. Add a new element to your registration form by clicking <img src="https://772941315-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F-M5LNCGpK5lyymcFZU4V%2Fuploads%2FDeajr3YUspb7KC32AHrB%2Fimage.png?alt=media&#x26;token=518b6a5a-4966-4622-b2c9-bcb3167dd2f9" alt="" data-size="line">.
2. Select 'Group Form Elements' from the dropdown.
