Select Save.
The Form preview on the right shows the form as visitors will see it. While the Add field panel is open, Save is unavailable; add the field or close the panel first.
RSVP options
The RSVP options set which answer buttons visitors see above the form.
Yes / Maybe / No: visitors pick one of three answers. Use it when you also want to know who is still unsure, for example for a party or meetup.
Yes / No: visitors pick one of two answers. Use it when you need a firm count, for example for catering or a limited number of seats.
Disabled: there are no answer buttons; visitors only fill in the form and send it. Use it for a plain sign-up, such as a webinar registration or a waiting list.
With Yes / Maybe / No or Yes / No, each registration shows the answer under Status on the Event registrations page, and the RSVP details panel counts the answers. Max. number of attendees on the event counts the people who said Yes.
Whatever they answer, visitors can add the event to their calendar afterwards. They can change their answer later through the update link in their confirmation email.
