We need to have a “notes” section on the roster for each student so we can add special instruction for our use
Event Espresso says, there is a feature that lets you do this. Add an “Admin View Only” question to the registration form. This will allow you to add notes to a form filed that doesn’t get displayed on the student’s registration form on the front-end.

Hi Maria,

If you go to Event Espressso -> Questions. You can create your question there (in this case I’ve used ‘Notes’ just as an example, you can call it whatever you want)

Within the question set ‘Admin View Only’ to Yes.

Now assign that Question to a question group.
Event Espresso -> Question Groups.
You can assign it to a question group you are already using, or create a new one. In this example I already have one called ‘Extra Stuff’ so I’ve assigned it to that.
Edit the Group your are adding the question to.
Under ‘Add further questions to group’ you’ll see ‘Notes’, click the tick box and Update.
You should have something like http://d.pr/i/Ugpl

Then add that question group to your event.
Event Espresso -> Event Overview -> *EVENT* -> Bottom of the sidebar.
http://d.pr/i/yc9R

Depending on how much info you are collecting. You may need it for the additional attendees also.

Hi,

Yes that’s correct. Create a new question, select the Text area question type and mark it as admin only. Then add the question to a Question group that is always used, the personal information group for example.

Then when a user registers they will not see the special question, but when you edit the attendee, the question field is there and can be edited.
