Hi,

I have some questions. Although i have been able to hide some thing i dont want on my form some others i am hving trouble doing.

* I want to hide the cost for the event, it is a free event, but i dont want it to appear as $0.00 i simply want to hide that field.

* I created a new question, a new field that i want to include in the confirmation email… as it is it goes something like: “hello {name} {lastname}, thanks for….” I want to include my new field before {name} its like a title so it will be something like “hello mr. X”

Finally,

* Is there a way to prevent double sign ups? i have been trying the form over and over with my same email … this is great for testing but once open that means people can sign up several times and that does not seem like a good thing, how can i change that?

* OH there is one more 🙂 – how can i export my whole registered users once the registration is finished or even if i want a partial export i cant seem to find it is that an addon?

Thanks!!

Hi Limbo,

Blocking multiple registrations from a single email isn’t currently available. However, we can help you with your other questions.

What version of Event Espresso are you using?

Hello again,

Try this sample coding for replacing the free pricing:

//* Replace currency and free pricing (cost of zero) with complementary
function ee_replace_free_pricing_messaging($content)
{
$content = str_replace('Mex$0.00', 'Complementary',$content);
return $content;
}
add_filter('the_content','ee_replace_free_pricing_messaging');

It can be added to your child theme’s functions.php file (do not include or add the the opening php tag) or a site specific plugin:

https://eventespresso.com/wiki/create-site-specific-plugin-wordpress-site/

On your question on customizing the email, that can be done by creating a custom email template.

Go to this event in the event editor and then scroll to the end of the page. You’ll see an area for a custom email.

There is also a link for a custom email template. Click on that and then copy the template. Then paste it into the text area and customize the messaging / verbiage to your needs.

The last step is to add a custom shortcode. The following is a list of shortcodes that are available for the custom email in Event Espresso 3:

https://eventespresso.com/wiki/custom-email-tags/

Towards the end of the list, you’ll see something like this:

[answer_What is your weight]

You’ll need to edit that to include the actual text from your custom question and it looks like this should work:

[answer_Título]

Copy that shortcode and add it where you would like it to appear in the custom email. Then toggle the option to send (use) the custom email template in the same area. The last step is to save changes to the event via the event editor.

A list of attendees can be found by going to Event Espresso –> Events Overview. Now locate your event. Towards the right side of the screen, you’ll see an attendee count (e.g. 100/200). Clicking on that link will take you to the attendee records screen. Scroll to the end of the page and you’ll be able to click on the button for exporting a list of attendees.

That file could then be opened in Excel, Google Sheets, Numbers, or an equivalent file.
