With Diobox, you can easily create and manage seating arrangements by creating visual representations of your tables without the need to draw the entire floor plan.
Create a Table
Step 1: Open your event and go to Seating. Tap the New Table
button.
Step 2: Enter a table name, and, optionally, any notes.
Step 3: Select a table shape: circle, row, half-round, square, or rectangle.
Note: A row is a type of "table" with seats on one side, such as those used for fashion shows.
Step 4: Drag the seat count slider to the size of your table. The diagram of your table changes as you adjust the slider.
Step 5: Tap the Save
button.
Seating Limits per Table
Each table type has a different limit of seats:
Circle - 40 seats
Row - 100 seats
Half-Round - 40 seats (20 on top and 20 on bottom)
Square - 80 seats (20 on each side)
Rectangle - 80 seats (20 on each side)
Edit Table Attributes
You can edit your table's attributes including name, notes, shape, and seating capacity for each table.
In Seating, select the Edit Table
button.
Note: If you reduce the number of seats in your table, any guests who were assigned to those seats will no longer have a seat assignment.
Delete a Table
If you no longer need a table in your event, you can delete it.
In Seating, find the table you want to delete, tap its Action Menu, and choose Delete Table
.
Note: All guests who were assigned seats at that table will no longer have a seat assignment.
Sort Tables
You can sort the list of tables in various ways to help with seating management.
In Seating, select the View Options
button and choose the sort method.
View Arrival Status
In the iOS app, on event day you can view the real-time arrival status of guests assigned to each table.
In Seating, select the View Options
button and choose Show Arrivals
.
Share Tables
You can share a printer-friendly version of tables with event stakeholders outside of Diobox, such as sponsors and table captains, using publicly accessible links.
