For Leaders

Run check-in for your session

On the day, your roster is a live checklist. Mark people as they arrive and the organizer sees it update in real time — no spreadsheet, no paper.

Check in from the web or the app. Your roster and the present / no-show controls live in your leader dashboard on the Wayfield website — the Wayfield app does the same on your phone for checking people in on the day.

Open your session

From your leader dashboard, open the session that’s running. You’ll see the roster for that session — the people enrolled, ready to check off.

Mark people in

As each person arrives, mark them:

  • Present — they showed up.
  • No-show — they didn’t.

That’s the whole job — tap down the list as people come through the door.

Fixing mistakes

Tapped the wrong name? You can revert a mark and set it again. Nothing is final until the session’s over, so don’t worry about getting it perfect on the first pass.

The organizer sees it live

As you check people in, attendance updates for the organizer immediately — so they know how the session filled without having to ask you.

The session window

Check-in (and messaging) become active around your session’s scheduled window. If the controls aren’t live yet, it’s likely just early — they open as the session approaches.

Note: this is you marking your roster. Participants don’t scan anything to check in — the join code is for joining a workshop in the field, which is a different thing.
