Early Registration Discount Issue

Since there is no Deposit feature, I’m implementing a work around which simply adds another rate to the event. 1 rate named Full Payment and the other named Deposit, this way users can select either option and successfully checkout then i simply provide instructions in the email template in regards to IF making deposit do this etc…

I have a $25.00 off discount for early registrations. Is there a way to disable said discount for a specific rate? Also when using the [ESPRESSO_EVENTS] shortcode in an Event window the “Price:” field automatically selects the lower of the 2 rates I have (not even including the early discount) Example: Rate 1 is $260 Rate 2 is $125 (was $100 but since early discount takes $25 off I made it $125 so its still $100 until early discount ends in which at that time i’ll change rate 2 from $125 to $100) on the [ESPRESSO_EVENTS] event window “Price” field it shows Price: $125. Please help, thanks.

Not without changing core code. However (this is a real hack) you could potentially add a surcharge to the deposit price level that offsets the early discount. Or create a separate event for the deposits.

This is the default behavior. The best solution would be to hide the price with CSS and add it to the event description. So you’d add this to your theme’s stylesheet (or via a plugin like My Custom CSS):

 .event_price {
      display: none;
 }

Then you can just put the price in your event description and that can say whatever you want it to. Alternately, you could conceivably remove the price from the template files, but the above option means you don’t need to worry about messing around with those at all.
