Does Event Espresso have conditional logic capabilities?

Here is a situation…
A person goes to register and they want to register/pay for themselves and their spouse. Before I just had all the questions in view and only made the first persons info required and the spouses info optional. But this caused problems b/c people would fill out their info and their spouses info without going to “Choose an option” and selecting the any option.

I could also use conditional logic for team registration. Or does EE offering anything to help with team registration.

Is their a way to make “choose an option” stand out more?

Hi Teresa,

How are you today?

Can we see an example of what you’re doing? Are you setting any of the questions to required? Do you require the additional information for additional attendees?

The only required questions are for the first persons info. There are different questions for each person. http://fmcevents.org/event-registration?ee=11

You could still make the questions required but leave, as one of the answers: “Not Applicable” so those who don’t need to fill out the spouse information only have to answer a few questions.

Essentially are you trying to have a different registration form depending the type of registration/ticket they need?

The problem is when there is the option to fill out both an individual’s info and a spouse’s info they fill out both and think they are registering them and there spouse. But they only pay for an individual b/c they skip over choose an option.

The questions in the spouse’s section are a repeat and there are quite a few of them so it would be annoying for the registrant to have to answer not applicable for each and that still wouldn’t help make it clearer.

Hi,

“Is their a way to make “choose an option” stand out more?”

You can do this with CSS, for example (and this is an extreme and ugly example) http://take.ms/WF8H5

This was created with a few lines of code

.event_prices {
background: yellow;
padding: 10px;
border: #000 thick solid;
}

Regarding the conditional questions, you could probably achieve something similar with JavaScript/jQuery, where it hides the spouses question block from view, unless the Married Couple Admission option is selected.

You would need a developer if you don’t know JavaScript – https://eventespresso.com/developers/event-espresso-pros/

As an aside your site has numerous JavaScript errors that seem to be emanating from the theme that might cause you issues in the future.
