Hi, I’m having trouble with a few things, sample event is here:

http://bwayboundnc.com/event-registration/?ee=1

Luckily I’m doing this for a lot of clients, so your answers will help me with multiple installations and purchases of the plugin:P

1. Question groups on registration. I see in Event Options the option to set Additional Attendee Registration Info. But then I also see a box for what seems to me to be the same kind of option here: http://cl.ly/image/1P3G1a420L2M However, it seems that only the first setting sets this. And I only get these three options: http://cl.ly/image/0Q2t0y0x1J3x What I set here affects what info boxes show or don’t show for the additional attendee info. It’s pretty important that I have more control than this as it’s all or nothing. Please let me know how to properly do this.

2. Multiple Event Registration. I have the add-on for this installed and activated, however, I’m not seeing any option for me to register for a single event or more than one event. I only have one event on the site, so maybe that’s it? I don’t see any settings inside of EE to control that.

3. Terms Checkbox. I’m trying to create a simple TOS box. I know EE doesn’t have that and what I’m using now is a radio button, but as you can see here, it’s a little janky given the column width. Any ideas on how that might be done more elegantly? http://cl.ly/image/3v1Y3H002r2L

Thank you!

Hi Ryan,

With issue #1, right now you have the Addtitional Attendee info option set to “No information” so a ticket quantity selector displays. If you select “Personal Information Only” it will require Name and email. If you select “Full Registration Information” it will display all the questions from the question groups that are checked in the lower box here:

You can have finer control over the form fields if you create a question group that includes the questions you want to display for the additional, and select that group in the “Event Questions for Additional Attendees” box.

With issue #2, there are no settings for Multi Event Registration. It works automatically. If you go to:

http://bwayboundnc.com/event-registration/

You’ll see an add to cart link, which will add the event to the cart if you click it. If there were more events listed there, you could add more events to the cart.

With Issue #3, instead of adding all the terms in the form of a question label, you can create a question group for the terms only. Then you can place the terms in Question group description. This will make the text fill the width of the registration form (be sure to select the option to display the question group description). Then you could create one required question (a checkbox or a radio button will do) and label the question: “I accept the terms” and make the value “Yes, I accept.” Then you can assign the question to the “Terms” group.

One last question, for the primary info, I’m only wanting to collect an email address once. Here for the first and last name, we’re using that for the student’s name, and the email is the parent’s email. So if they add another attendee/student, we don’t need them to enter their email address a second time. I thought I could delete the email question from the primary info and put it into a separate question group. However, I’m wondering if that screws something up in the process, perhaps they want get the email correspondence after they’re registered. Any thoughts on that? thanks!
