JCal Pro allows to register event participants in two ways:

• Via the admin area. Site administrators create the registrations via the JCal Pro: Registrations page in Joomla administrator panel.
• Via the front end. People can register themselves from the event's frontend page.

For step-by-step instructions on how to register a user for an event from JCal Pro: Registrationsadministrative panel, please see the "How to Manually Create JCal Pro Registrations".

Allowing your site visitors to register for JCal Pro events from events' front pages is a three-step process:

1. Allow events registrations globally in the JCal Pro Configuration screen.
2. Set which Joomla user group is allowed to register for events.
3. Enable registration for required events.

JCal Pro allows you to register event participants in two ways:

• From the administrator area. Site administrators can create registrations via the JCal Pro: Registrations page in the Joomla administrator panel.
• From the front end. Visitors can register themselves directly from an event’s front-end page.

For step-by-step instructions on registering a user from the JCal Pro: Registrations administrative page, please see the "How to Manually Create JCal Pro Registrations" tutorial.

Allowing visitors to register for JCal Pro events from the front end is a three-step process:

• Enable event registrations globally in the JCal Pro Configuration screen.
• Set which Joomla user groups are allowed to register.
• Enable registrations for specific events.

Let’s look at these steps in more detail.

Step #1. Enable event registrations globally

• In your Joomla administrator dashboard, go to Components > JCal Pro > Events > Options:
