The Badges web module lists the number of badges that may be available for a meeting parent product. If any badges are used, the Badges web module provides the name of the badge holder.
Badges
can only be created for meeting parent products. You can not create a
badge for a session unless it is considered a pre-conference session,
at which point you would create the pre-conference session as its own
meeting parent product, thus allowing you to create an additional badge
for the pre-conference session.
To configure the Badges web module:
1. Log into your site as Host.
2. Navigate to the appropriate page on your site where you want to add the Badges web module.
3. Add the Personify – Badge module to where you want it to be located on your page. See Adding a Web Module to the Webpage for more information.

5. Configure the appropriate module settings as described below:
· Template – Drop-down. This setting allows you to determine which default or customized template to apply when using the Badges web module. The default is BadgeTemplate.xsl.
· Next Page URL – Drop-down. This setting allows you to determine where the customer is redirected when the Save and Continue button is clicked.
6. Click Update.
The Badges web module is used in concurrence with the Shopping Cart module. When a customer purchases a meeting product (or any product requiring badges) a link “Edit Badges” displays under the product in the Shopping Cart web module.
Clicking Edit Badges (highlighted above) opens the Badges web module.
The meeting product and any additional sessions being purchased display along with the number of badges that are awarded for purchasing the meeting product.
Clicking Edit Free Badge within the Badge Info column allows you to enter information about the person who will be using that badge at the meeting. You are prompted to enter whether the badge is for yourself or a guest, the person’s first name, last name, company name, city, state, and postal code.
The information entered will be printed on the badge(s) when it is presented at the meeting.
