# How to register guests in your contacts list
If a participant answers a CrowdNewsroom but is not a member, or has not logged-in to their account, you can still add information to your contacts list. For that *Collect contact information* has to be enabled
If you choose to *collect contact information*, fields to collect the participants’ name and email address will be automatically added to the **end** of the CrowdNewsroom.
1. If a participant does not already exist as a contact, this information will be used to create a new contact in the contacts list
2. If the participant does already exist in the contacts list, but is not logged in at the moment, their answer to the CrowdNewsroom will still be synced with their profile
You can also choose whether guests should be required to leave their information, or whether this is optional. Activate the toggle next to *Require Contact information from guest* to make this mandatory.
**NB:** If you do not require contact information from guests, only fully completed entries will be used to create a new contact in the contacts list

**Note:** The contact information fields will not be visible in the preview of the CrowdNewsroom. The request for name and email address will only appear after publication, when you click the link without being logged into beabee.
