    Create your WordPress.org account<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Choose a username<\/strong>: lower case letters and numbers only. It shows on your public profile and cannot be changed later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Add an email<\/strong> you can open now, tick I have read and accept the Privacy Policy<\/code> and press Create Account<\/code>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    WordPress.org sends [WordPress.org] Your new account<\/strong> from noreply@wordpress.org. Open it and press the link inside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n

    Not in your inbox?<\/strong> Look in Spam and Promotions. Typed the wrong address? The confirm screen has a link to fix it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

    Set your password<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Keep the suggested password or type your own until the meter reads Strong<\/strong>, and save it somewhere safe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Website, Location, Occupation and Interests can stay empty. Press Create Account<\/code>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

    Log in on the tickets page<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Setting the password leaves you on your new WordPress.org profile, not on the tickets page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Go back to the tickets page<\/a> and press log in with your WordPress.org account<\/code>. You are signed straight in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    No log-in note above the tickets? You are already logged in, so go straight to step 6<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n

    Asked to sign in?<\/strong> That happens if you confirmed the email on another device. Use the username and password you just made.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

    7<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Add your name<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    The form fills in your name from your WordPress.org account. On a new account, the First name<\/strong> box holds your username: replace it with your real first name, and add your surname in the Last name<\/strong> box beside it. Both are printed on your badge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Your ticket and receipt go to the email shown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n

    WordPress.org Profile<\/strong> is optional. To add it, paste profiles.wordpress.org\/ followed by your username.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

    Answer five questions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Whether to list you on the public Attendees page, any severe allergy, any accessibility needs, whether it is your first WordPress event, and the Code of Conduct. All five are required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n

    Read the Code of Conduct<\/a> before you tick it. A yes on allergies or accessibility means we will get in touch.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

    Buying more than one? Each extra ticket has its own short form below your questions. Fill those in first (what they ask<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Press Checkout<\/code>. Stripe takes the payment, by UPI or card, for WordPress Community Support, PBC, which handles the money for every WordCamp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n

    On the payment page<\/strong>, skip the Apple Pay and Link buttons at the top unless you use them. Pick UPI or Card under Payment method, then press Pay<\/code>. Once it goes through, you are brought back to the WordCamp site.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

    You land on Your WordCamp Bengaluru tickets<\/strong>, marked Confirmed, and the ticket email arrives from noreply@wordcamp.org.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n

    Check Spam.<\/strong> If the email is there, press Report not spam<\/code> and keep it. Its link is how you change your details later<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

    Buying for others<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    More than one ticket<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Set the quantity above 1 in step 6<\/a> and the next screen has one form per ticket. You pay once for all of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
    \n

    Ticket 1 is yours<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Your name, your email and the five questions, as in steps 7 and 8<\/a>. The forms for the other tickets come after it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"The\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button>
    \u20b9800 \u00d7 2, paid in one go.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
    \n

    The others get a name and an email<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    From ticket 2 on, the form asks only for a first name, last name and email. Each person then gets a link by email, logs in with their own WordPress.org account (making one first, as in steps 2 to 4<\/a>, if they need to) and answers the remaining questions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Until they do, their ticket shows as Unconfirmed. You can’t confirm it for them, because your account already holds ticket 1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"The\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button>

Forward it to whoever ends up with the ticket, and they log in with their own WordPress.org account to fill in their details.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

    All filled in? Press Checkout<\/code> and carry on from step 9<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

    \n

    Change your details later<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Spotted a typo in your name, moved to a new email, or passing the ticket on? You change it from your ticket page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Have just the code? On the tickets page press Click here to enter a coupon code<\/code> and paste it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Good to know<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Why a WordPress.org<\/em> account?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    It is free, and it is not a website. It is your login for WordPress.org, the home of the open-source project, and WordCamp tickets are bought with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
    \n

    One login for every WordCamp<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    WordCamps around the world sell tickets through a WordPress.org login. Make it once and it works for this one and every one after.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

    \n

    Your ticket stays yours<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Logged in, you can open your ticket again and change the name or email on it, without digging out an old email.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

    \n

    Ready for Contributor Day<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    The WordPress teams you can join on Contributor Day all work through WordPress.org accounts, so yours is ready before you arrive.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

    Questions, answered<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    The email has not arrived<\/summary>\n

    Give it a few minutes, then look in Spam, Promotions and any other tab your mail app sorts things into. Still nothing? On the Confirm your email address screen, press Resend confirmation email<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n

    I typed the wrong email address<\/summary>\n

    On the Confirm your email address screen, press Incorrect email? Update email address.<\/strong> and type the right one. The link goes to the new address.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n

    The form will not take my username<\/summary>\n

    Usernames hold only lower case letters and numbers, so priya2026 works and Priya.K does not. If it is taken, add a few numbers. You cannot change it later, so pick one you are happy to keep.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n

    I already have an account but forgot the password<\/summary>\n

    Do not make a second one. Press log in with your WordPress.org account on the tickets page, then Lost your password?<\/strong> on the login screen, and WordPress.org emails you a link to set a new one.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n

    I am buying tickets for other people<\/summary>\n

    Pick how many in step 6<\/a>. Ticket 1 is yours, and each extra ticket needs only a name and an email. That person then confirms it with their own WordPress.org account. More than one ticket<\/a> has the details.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n

    I need to change the name on my ticket<\/summary>\n

    Open the link in your ticket email, log in with your WordPress.org account, and press Edit information<\/strong>. The four screens are above<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n

    Can I get a refund?<\/summary>\n

    Tickets are not refundable, but they are transferable: change the name and email on yours, and the community WhatsApp group is where people pass on tickets they cannot use.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
