Is there a way I can add a dynamic or conditional field/dropdown to my registration form. I have a driving class that I’m setting up and the student gets to pick a driver (ticket). That driver can pick up at 3 locations depending on how many students sign up. If there are 3 students that can be picked up at one location, that location will be the only pick up location for that driver. I need a way to have in the form, “I can be picked up…” and the only options are the driver’s pick up locations. I have several drivers.

Hi there,

Just to confirm I understand how you have this set up, each driver is an individual ticket within your event?

So you could have 3 tickets, Driver A, B, C and if the user selects a ticket for Drive A show a field with that drives pickup locations on the registration form, same for B and C only with their specific locations?

If so there’s nothing in EE that allows for this currently but it would be possible for a developer to use some jQuery to work around it.

What you could do is include 3 custom questions within a question group assigned to the event. One question with Driver A’s locations in a dropdown, another with Driver B’s and so on.

Then on the registration form hide all of those using some jQuery and then show the individual dropdown based on the ticket selection (or tie it to another question). Every registration will have all 3 drivers locations saved in the registration but only one drivers answer would be saved.

As mentioned you would need the help of a developer to implement this, if you are not currently working with one we have a list of developers familiar with EE here:

Alright. Thanks! I have been working on this and I got it to work. Is there a hook I can use for the ticket description?

For when its output on the ticket selector? Not currently.

If you can let me know what your trying to do and where you are looking to into I can check if there is anything available.
