Hey there,
We’re trying to wrap our heads around the best way to setup class schedules using EE. So far, we’ve not had great luck with this.
There are a couple of variables that impact how a user can register for a class:
– The type of class that they are registering for (there are 3 types: A class series, single classes from the series, and a single class not associated with a class series)
– Single vs. Group (in our case, this is generally a couple, or two people)
So I guess my question is this – Is there a way to have just one fee for an event, regardless of the number of attendees per registration?
Thanks much!

Hi Kyle,
I think the best way to add attendees without increasing the price would be to add custom questions for additional attendees.

Hi Jonathan,
Thanks for the follow up.
Yeah, we’ve decided that the best (and perhaps only option, without hacking things to death) is to allow group registration and have a general question set for the primary attendee, and nothing for the additional attendees, since additional attendees vary with regards to their information needing to be collected (these are for birthing classes, so custom fields could be for fathers, children, etc.).
We’re going to write a function that forces the base ticket fee for the course, no matter how many attendees register. The reason for this is, while we don’t want to increase the cost based on registration (whether that be 1 person registering, or a group of 5), we still need to reduce class capacity based on attendee.
So, we should be good for now (assuming our plan works out the way we think it will).
Thanks again for the follow up!
Cheers
Kyle
