I would like to change the following on the registration form-
1) Change wording “Enter Coupon Code” to “Enter Family Membership Number/Coupon Code”
2) In attendee information section-
–Widen form area. Right now the form only uses a very skinny column along left side of page.
–format some question information on the same line.
ie- instead of…
City
State
Zip
change to…
City State Zip

Hi Lara,

1) Wording can be changed in two ways: via language files or by directly editing a template. Generally the language option is the easiest and most update proof.

We have a guide to changing wording here – https://eventespresso.com/wiki/how-to-change-wording-with-poedit/

2) Without being able to see the form on a site it’s hard to say, but it sounds like it’s more of a theme CSS issue, so you would need to check what CSS is causing the skinniness and modify it via the themes style.css or via a plugin like My Custom CSS.

Having only certain form elements on the same line is quite hard due to how they are structured, so barring modifying the template file, the best I could come up with via CSS is this http://d.pr/i/BURs

#address_information-1388751991 div {
width: 50%;
float: left;
clear: none;
}

The ID #address_information-1388751991 would need to be change to match your actual question group ID, and obviously the CSS may not be 100% accurate for your site so may need tweaking.
