This article discusses the creation of a Web Template utilising Liquid and HTML code, for displaying individual Event records in a user-friendly manner. Previously, for each new Event, a new Web Page had to be created—a process that wasn't efficient, and might pose a challenge for a non-tech-savvy marketing team.

The improved method involves the creation of a dynamic Event Page, which displays relevant information about the Event as well as a registration form. A notable highlight includes the addition of a hero image at the top of the page, pulled from the Event record within D365 Marketing.

 

The Event Image field is a default feature on the Event record, but could be hidden, requiring minor adjustments to make visible. After adding the field to your form, the Components section allows the addition of the Image Select Button Control. This allows users to upload images from D365 Marketing or new ones directly, which can be used in emails and displayed on the Event Page.

  • Add Event Image Field to Form
  • Access Components section
  • Add Image Select Button Control
  • Save and publish the form
