Is there an option to add some permanent extra fields to the events?
Like dropdowns, checkboxes, etc..?

Hi Marc,
If you mean fields to gather information from registrants then yes.
Our Question system is quite robust and allows you to create groups of questions which can be added to individual events, so if desired each event can have different questions being asked.
The one caveat is that the default first name, last name and email address question group (called personal information) is required by all events, otherwise the plugin cant do its job.
If you have another purpose for the fields please explain further.

Hi Dean,
Thank you for your reply.
What I’m looking for is to add some extra fields to an event/course.
For example an extra field for a list of modules. A dropdown for a selection of the level of the course.
Is there a way to incorperate that by default for every new event?

Hi Marc,
Yes it can be incorporated easily, not automatic but very quick and easy to do via the question method above. Once the questions/question groups have been made all you would need to do is select them in the events as you create them (one or more tickboxes).
That information will then be on the spreadsheet export and in the individual attendee information

Hi Dean, I think that is not exactly what I’m looking for.
I am looking to expand the event itself not the bookingform.
I want to show some extra info like the meta boxes, exept permanent and different types. Is that possible?

Hi Marc, you could do this two ways to my knowledge of EE, which works best for you would depend on variables like the number of options etc.
1) use the multiple event registration (MER) add-on and create events for each option and add them to the cart from links in the description of the main event.
2) Add a price for each combination of options in the event.

Thanks for your reply.
I have 2 other questions.
Is it possible to use the custom post type and a recurring event, so that one event can show multiple dates for the same event?
It seems that the provided Recurring Event templates don’t work?

Hi Marc,
The custom post type template will display one post for each event, so you’d likely have to make some modifications in order to list out events within a single event template.
The provided REM are out of date. I made some tweaks to those old ones and they can be downloaded here:
