DocsGetting Started

Welcome to YeahApp

YeahApp is a workspace for communities that have real things happening — events, memberships, payments, and people. Instead of bouncing between a spreadsheet for members, a separate tool for events, and another for payments, everything lives in one place. If you run a professional network, alumni group, trade association, incubator, or any other community where membership actually means something, YeahApp was built for you.

What you can do

Events — Create them, sell tickets, and check people in on the day with QR codes. Attendance logs itself to each member's profile.

Members — Every person has a profile that builds over time: join date, event history, subscription status, payment history. You can search and filter your directory to find who you need.

Membership fees — Set up recurring plans with monthly, quarterly, annual, or lifetime billing. Members subscribe through Stripe and handle their own renewals and cancellations from their account settings.

Forms — Build a registration form and attach it to an event. When someone registers, their answers go straight to their member profile. You don't re-enter anything.

Analytics — Member counts, event attendance, ticket sales, and membership revenue on one dashboard.


How it connects

Registration, payments, and member data all feed into the same place. When someone registers for a paid event, the ticket purchase links to their profile. When they subscribe to a membership plan, their access is managed from there too. Forms work the same way — answers go straight to the member record.


Who does what

When you create a community, you're the Owner. You have full control over settings, members, events, plugins, and billing.

Three other roles from there:

  • Admins can do most of what you can. They manage members, create events, configure settings, and pull reports.
  • Moderators handle the operational work — running events, managing members, creating forms — but can't touch settings or billing.
  • Members are your community participants. They join events, fill in forms, and post.

For the full permissions breakdown, see Community Roles & Permissions.


Starting out

If you haven't set up a community yet:

  1. Create your community — takes about two minutes. You'll pick a name, a URL slug, and a short description.
  2. Invite your admins before you start building.
  3. Create a draft event. Even an unpublished one is useful for testing registration and forms.
  4. If you're charging membership fees, read Creating a Membership Plan once your community is live.

The rest of the docs are organized by feature. Each article covers one thing and stands on its own.
