I am looking for a way to release places in stages.
Would it work to put a limit of 100 attendees for an event, but later edit it to have an extra 100 places available?
I don’t want to use a waiting list. I am happy to edit it, so I am not looking for it to do this automatically, I just want to know if it will cause any problems.
Also – on a full event it shows:
We are sorry but this event has reached the maximum number of attendees!
Please check back in the event someone cancels.
Current Number of Attendees: 510
Can I remove the number of attendees line? Via CSS I presume?

Hi Matt,
That will work:
Initial attendee limit @ 100
Second round attendee limit @ 200
Third round attendee limit @ 300
…and so forth.
You might already be aware but one way that the wait list will be helpful is that it will collect information about those potential registrants/attendees for you. Then after you raise the attendee limit for the original event, you could send out a mass email to those on the wait list via Event Espresso 3.
See this tutorial for information on how to edit the messaging that shows the attendee count:

Thanks Lorenzo, the CSS worked fine.
I am using waiting lists elsewhere and will also be using them for this event, but for a different purpose.
For this event, I am just looking to open the entries in stages, with a price discount initially. It should be relatively easy to do.
