ARIWEB Event Invitations & RSVP

ARIWEB Event Invitations & RSVP helps WordPress site owners manage private invitations and attendance confirmations for weddings, bridal showers, family celebrations, small private events and similar occasions.

The plugin lets you create events, add a public RSVP form with a shortcode, generate individual or general invitations, attach a base PDF invitation, create secure invitation links, limit the number of attendees per invitation, assign expected guests and review responses from the WordPress admin area.

It is designed for event pages where the organizer wants a simple RSVP workflow without setting up a full ticketing or ecommerce system.

Recommended workflow

1. Create an event in the Events tab.

3. Copy the event shortcode and paste it into the WordPress page that will display the RSVP form.
4. Create individual or general invitations in the Invitations tab.
5. Set the maximum number of attendees for each invitation.
6. Copy the confirmation page link, PDF link or WhatsApp sharing option from the Share button.
7. Send the invitation to the guest.
8. Review responses in the Responses or Summary screens.

Invitation types

Individual invitation

Use this when the invitation belongs to one specific person, couple, family or group. It can have a guest limit, assigned guest names, an optional contact email or phone number and a secure access link.

General invitation

Use this when the same invitation link may be shared with multiple people. This is useful when you do not need a separate invitation record for each person.

PDF invitations

Each event can have a base PDF invitation. When the plugin serves a PDF invitation, it can include a clickable link to the RSVP page so guests can open the form directly from the PDF.

An individual invitation can also use a specific PDF if that invitation needs a different file from the event base PDF.

Language support

The plugin includes built-in Spanish and English translation files for the WordPress admin area and the public RSVP form. It uses the current WordPress locale and includes compatibility helpers for common multilingual plugins such as WPML, Polylang and TranslatePress.

Soporte de idiomas

El plugin incluye archivos de traducción en español e inglés para el área de administración de WordPress y el formulario público de confirmación. Usa el idioma activo de WordPress y agrega compatibilidad con plugins multidioma comunes como WPML, Polylang y TranslatePress.

Shortcode

The main shortcode is:

[ariwevin_event_rsvp]

The recommended format is to specify the event slug, especially if you want to place the same form on multiple pages or translated pages:

[ariwevin_event_rsvp event="my-event-slug"]

Example:

[ariwevin_event_rsvp event="paola-jahziel-wedding"]

You can also use the alias [ariweb_event_rsvp event="my-event-slug"] if you prefer the public Ariweb naming.

You can also add an optional title:

[ariwevin_event_rsvp event="paola-jahziel-wedding" title="Confirm your attendance"]

Resumen en español

ARIWEB Event Invitations & RSVP permite crear eventos privados, generar invitaciones individuales o generales, limitar asistentes, asignar nombres permitidos y recibir confirmaciones desde un formulario público.

El formulario puede colocarse en una o varias páginas usando el shortcode recomendado:

[ariwevin_event_rsvp event="nombre-corto-del-evento"]

El plugin incluye soporte para español e inglés en el administrador de WordPress y en el formulario público. También puede detectar el idioma activo cuando el sitio usa plugins multidioma comunes.

En el modal de compartir invitación puedes copiar el código, compartir la URL general sin tokens, compartir el enlace de confirmación, compartir el PDF y usar opciones de WhatsApp.

External Services

This plugin can optionally use Google reCAPTCHA v3 for spam protection. reCAPTCHA is disabled unless the site administrator adds a reCAPTCHA site key and secret key in the plugin settings.

When reCAPTCHA v3 is enabled, the public RSVP form loads the Google reCAPTCHA JavaScript API from https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api.js. This is required to generate an anti-spam token in the visitor’s browser.

When a visitor submits the RSVP form, the plugin sends a verification request to https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api/siteverify. The request includes the reCAPTCHA secret key configured by the administrator, the token generated by Google reCAPTCHA, and the visitor IP address. The plugin does not send the RSVP name, phone number, guest count, invitation notes or attendee details to Google reCAPTCHA.

Google reCAPTCHA is provided by Google LLC.

Privacy

This plugin can store personal information related to RSVP management, such as guest name, phone number, attendance status, number of attendees, attendee details, invitation code, IP address and browser user agent.

This data is stored on the site owner’s WordPress database and is used to manage the event and its attendance confirmations.

The plugin does not send RSVP names, phone numbers, guest counts or attendee details to Ariweb or to any Ariweb server.

If Google reCAPTCHA v3 is enabled by the site administrator, the plugin connects to Google as described in the External Services section.

The plugin integrates with the WordPress privacy tools by adding suggested privacy policy content and supporting personal data export and erasure where applicable.
