Hi,
I have a question.
I will be in need to have an “on-site” registration where a person will meet and greet guests. It could turn out that guests might want to register on-site at the actual date of the Event.
This means that I would like to give the option for someone to stand at the registration booth and type in the details of the customer.
How shall I solve this?
I do not want them to use the front-end registration page.
And I do not want them to get an WordPress user account with Administrator rights.
Thanks for help in this matter!
Kind regards,
Andreas

Hi Andreas,
We’ve added WordPress capabilities for just about every task in Event Espresso. So all you do is install a plugin like User Role Editor or Members and you check the boxes next to the ee_ capabilities that you want to give to the user accounts you set up. There’s more info in the documentation:
https://eventespresso.com/wiki/event-espresso-4-roles-permissions/

Thank you Josh!
So it means it is possible for me to add a User in my WordPress and then give them the right to register attendees on the back-end and also make sure they can have access to the Barcode scanner page, but nothing else?
Kind regards,
Andreas

Yes that is correct.
With the EE capabilities you can restrict access to specific sections of EE.
So you want users to access Event Espresso sections but nothing else within the WP admin?
Or you want to restrict just specific sections of EE for certain users?

Hi Tony!
Yes, I want to create a couple of WordPress User Accounts.
And when they login to my WordPress site, they should only be able to see the Event Espresso section Barcode Scanner. As I want them to be able to check-in the attendees.
Is this possible?
Thank you!
Kind regards,
Andreas

Yes this is possible. You grant these capabilities to their user role:
ee_read_checkin
ee_read_checkins
ee_read_event
ee_read_events
ee_delete_checkin
ee_delete_checkins
ee_edit_checkin
ee_edit_checkins

I installed the “Roles” plug-in and saw what groups exists.
Is it possible to create a Group that i.e. could be called “CheckIn” and populate users there and give the group the rights:
ee_read_checkin
ee_read_checkins
ee_read_event
ee_read_events
ee_delete_checkin
ee_delete_checkins
ee_edit_checkin
ee_edit_checkins
Or is it only for user accounts?
Thank you in advance!

You can make a role, then assign the user accounts that role.

Thanks a lot Josh!
If I would like the same role to be able to register new attendees in the back-end, what capabilities do I have to give that role then?
Kind regards,
~Andreas

You’ll need to add the ones that have ee_*_registration and ee_*_registrations and most likely ee_*_transaction(s).

Thank you for this Josh!
I will test this on my local installation (using MAMP PRO) before enabling anything in production.
Hope you guys have and have had a great X-mas holidays!
Kind regards,
Andreas
