Share a public sign-up link

Updated August 23, 2026

Every sign-up has a public page. Public listing is a separate switch. Mixing those two ideas is the most common sharing mistake.

The page always exists

After you create a sign-up you get a URL like /signups/{id}. Anyone who opens that URL can read the event and register, whether or not they have a MojoSignUp account. You can paste it into email, a school newsletter, or a group chat. That is enough for most private groups.

The URL is not a secret password, but it is unguessable in normal use. Do not put a private staff event on a public website if you only meant to text the link to ten people.

What “public listing” adds

The create and edit forms include a public listing checkbox. When it is on, the sign-up can appear in three other places:

  • Search — people can find it by title or by the organizer email they already know
  • The team page at /signups/team/{teamId}
  • The creator page at /signups/creator/{creatorId}

When the checkbox is off, those three surfaces skip the event. The direct URL still works. Use that for classroom parties, internal trainings, and anything you would not post on a bulletin board.

How to share without listing

Copy the public page URL from the browser while viewing the event, or from the organizer dashboard. Send it to the people who should register. If someone forwards it, those new people can also register. If that is a problem, keep capacity tight and remove unexpected names from the roster.

How to share with listing

Turn listing on, then send the team page if you run many events for the same group, or the creator page if people follow you personally. Search is useful when a parent remembers your email but lost the flyer.

Listing does not submit the event to Google for you. It only includes the event in MojoSignUp’s own public lists. Search engines may still index a page if someone links to it.

Changing your mind

Edit the sign-up and flip the checkbox. Already-registered people stay on the roster. The public page does not disappear when you turn listing off; only the directory entries do.
