RSVPing to a popup

When the volunteer running a popup needs a headcount, they ask you to RSVP. You can RSVP in two ways: from the site, or from a confirmation page opened by a link in the email we send you.

RSVP from the site

Open the popup's page. When popup volunteer times are available, find Can you help at this popup? and choose I can help, Maybe, or Can't. If that workflow is not available yet, the heading is Will you attend this popup? and the choices are Yes, I'll be there, Maybe, and No. A yes answer saves right away unless the available volunteer-time workflow requires you to choose a shift. If you change your mind, come back and pick a different answer.

RSVP from the email

The email has three buttons at the bottom: Yes, I'll be there, Maybe, and Can't attend. Click the one that matches your answer to open a page where you can review it. Then click Confirm my "Yes" RSVP, Confirm my "Maybe" RSVP, or Confirm my "No" RSVP to save it. You don't need to sign in.

Add a note

On the popup page, when you choose the yes response — I can help or Yes, I'll be there, depending on the current workflow — a box appears labelled "Can you bring or help with anything? (optional)". Type a short note — a table, a flag, chairs, AV, a vehicle, anything the host should know — then click Save note. A small "Saved — the organizer can see this now." message confirms it. (Typing alone doesn't save the note — you do need to click the button.)

Popups with shifts

When popup volunteer times are available and the popup has them, clicking I can help opens Choose when you can help. Click Choose a volunteer time, select an available shift, and finish with I can help at this time. Your I-can-help response is not complete unless the shift signup succeeds. A popup with no shifts keeps the normal three-answer flow and does not create a placeholder shift. When the volunteer-time workflow is unavailable, shift rows stay hidden and the legacy RSVP choices apply.

Changing your answer

If the RSVP choices are still available on the popup page, open it again and pick a new answer.
