We’re new to Event Espresso and have had a few issues along our learning curve, especially with promotion codes. Before we launch our next code-heavy registration phase (all for 100% discounts), I want to do our best to prevent any further complications.
Can someone please review our setup and identify any other potential issues we may face? Here is the event: https://amachicago.org/brand-smart/#reg
Here are the issues I’ve encountered so far:
• On Jan. 21, our promo codes were not applying. Josh helped me exclude scripts from Autoptimize and solved the problem. Here is that conversation: https://eventespresso.com/topic/promotion-codes-wont-apply/
• On Feb. 4, a registrant was unable to use a 100% discount promotion code. I don’t have their error code or more information. I tested it and it worked, and they tried again later and it worked.
• On Feb. 7, a registrant was unable to use a previously-working 100% discount promotion code. They got the error “The selected method of payment could not be determined. Please sure that you have selected one before proceeding…” Using another support forum, I turned off aggregate JavaScript (https://eventespresso.com/topic/js-autoptomize/) and I was able to register. On Feb. 11 the same registrant was able to apply the promo code, but received the error message, “An invalid registration was received. A valid Primary Registration for this Transaction could not be found.”
We’re about to launch registration for sponsors, which will be 60+ registrants using 20 different unique registration codes, each for 100% discounts. Can someone review our install for any red flags or potential glitches? We want to provide the smoothest experience possible!

Hi,
Here are a few suggestions:
1) On this page:
https://amachicago.org/brand-smart/#reg
You could use the ticket selector shortcode instead of the iframe embed code. The iframe embed isn’t as mobile friendly as the shortcode
2) I checked the browser’s console when on the page you linked to, and I still see JavaScript errors from Autoptimize. You might consider using another plugin like Fast Velocity Minify for optimizing scripts/styles
3) This is more of an esthetic quality: You might want to not align center your registration page so the field labels will display left aligned instead. That may be a block setting on the reg-checkout page you can change

Thank you so much, Josh!
1. Done!
2. I’ve turned off Autoptimize.
3. Great point – I’ve changed the page template to make the forms easier to use.
If you’re able to give it one more look, I’d appreciate it. Thank you!

Here are a few cosmetic improvements that could be applied:
Override the theme’s styles that set the ticket selector inputs too wide:
.tkt-slctr-tbl select {
width: auto;
}
Most table cells look better not centered:
.tkt-slctr-tbl tr td,
.tkt-slctr-tbl thead tr th {
text-align: left;
}
Then you could add some style to the ticket selector button so it matches the other button on the page:
.ticket-selector-submit-btn {
font-size: 1.4rem;
text-transform: uppercase;
background:#0071A5;
font-family: Gottham Bold,sans-serif;
color:#fff;
padding: 1.5rem 2.5rem 1.2rem;
border-radius: 60px;
border: 1px solid
#0071A5;
}
You can any of the above to your site’s Appearance > Customize > Additional CSS page.
