Design Quick Links Your Way – Backgrounds, Arrangements and More

We’re excited to introduce Quick Link Background & Control to the HOST event management platform. Design or customize your Quick Links with personalized backgrounds, icons, and display settings to match your event’s visual identity. This feature gives you more creative control, helping deliver a seamless, visually appealing experience for your attendees across the app.

Displaying Feature Shortcuts in the Overview Screen

The placement of Quick Links within the event app interface depends on the Quick Link Setup setting. When this setting is enabled, quick links will be displayed in the Overview screen of the app and web, offering easy access to key features. This allows organizers to control the layout of their app's navigation to suit the user experience they want to provide.

Effortlessly Design and Customize Your Quick Links

With HOST’s new Quick Link customization feature, tailoring your event app just got easier. Click on the pencil icon to customize any Quick Link. You can choose how to display the Quick Links—show them with icons, titles, or even background images, depending on your event’s visual style.

Customize icons, labels, and layout to guide users seamlessly. No coding required—just a few clicks to create a professional, branded experience your attendees will love.

Reordering and Rearranging The Quick Links

You can easily reorder and rearrange Quick Links to suit the layout of the event app. The drag to rearrange interface allows for intuitive organization. Simply hold and drag a quick link tile to the desired position within the grid. Additionally, you can select the number of columns (1 to 4) to define how links are arranged on the app screen. The option to toggle quick link borders on or off further enhances visual customization. All changes must be saved to take effect.

See how HOST can help you organize a successful event!
