       Open

        

   • Under 'Exhibitor Status' you can decide whether to set the Exhibitor booth to Private or Public (Exhibitors may wish to keep it on Private until they have completed setting up their booth). You can also choose to set the Exhibitor booth to Featured. If Enabled, the following will appear:

     • 'Featured' label will appear at the top of the Exhibitor booth;

       • 'Featured' label to the top-right corner of the Index tile on the Exhibitor page

       • The Exhibitor will show on the Home Page (if the 'Exhibitor' Home Page Section is Enabled); Exhibitor at the top of any lists (if multiple Exhibitors are Featured, it will order them alphabetically)

   • Under 'Lead Capture', you can choose to add a custom label for the Lead Capture button (default label is 'Connect With Exhibitor'). You can also choose to link the Lead Capture button to a URL instead of the Lead Capture form.
