#1 Upload an Image and Insert the Redirect Code into an Event Record

Click here to learn the ins and outs of resizing and uploading an image to your web services Application Menu - this tutorial assumes you understand that process.

I saved and uploaded an image called “2014-4-21-trail-blazer-logo-v2.png”.

 

 

Click on the blue hyperlink and copy the URL of the image from the address bar.

 

 

In your database navigate to the Application Menu > Events

Open the event record you’re working with.  In this example I opened one called “Blazing Trails – The Kings Trail.

 

 

 

From within the event click on the Setup tab and the Web Customization sub-tab.

 

 

 

In the Link Description field enter the code below.  Replace my source URL with the location of the image you uploaded.

<p></p><img src="http://trailblz.info/YourDatabaseName/images/2014-4-21-trail-blazer-logo-v2.png" />

(The <p> tags will drop the image down a notch online making it more aesthetically pleasing.)

 

 

 

In the Page Url field enter the location of where to send the event attendee after they register.  In this example I sent them to our homepage http://www.trailblz.com.

 

 

Click [Save] to finish.  The next section will walk through the online registration and how this redirect image will look to an event attendee.
