Free Event for selected attendants (with default registration "to be approved"?)

Hello.
Many of my events will be free but mainly for clients (I will manually add other people only if they ask for registration with an external contact form, or I will tell them the event password – as I’m going o ask here below).

(1) Is it possible to lock the registration with a password? (and this password will be asked before the “personal informations” form page)

(2) Is it possible to set the default registration status as “to be approved” or “waiting for approval”? (I already set it as “waiting for payment” – I think this is the correct translation in english – but, as the event is free – ticket is 0.00€ – the registration automatically becomes “confirmed”).

(3) Can I delete the ticket (as it is 0.00€) and just have a field like (for example) “number of attendants you want to reserve”?

You can password protect the whole post, but not just the ticket selector. (See screenshot below)

(2) Is it possible to set the default registration status as “to be approved” or “waiting for approval”? (I already set it as “waiting for payment” – I think this is the correct translation in english – but, as the event is free – ticket is 0.00€ – the registration automatically becomes “confirmed”).

Because the event is free, ‘Pending Payment’ will not work, as there isn’t a payment due.

You can set your ‘Default registration status’ to ‘Not Approved’ on the event, that will allow the user to register but waits for approval.

You can hide the details on the ticket selector using CSS, however it sounds like you want users to register, then set the price on the event and have them pay for the new ticket price, is that correct?

Thank you Tony for your kind reply.

(1) – (2) I added a password for every Event, so the default registration status is ok to be “approved” because people need to know the password to register.
Now people see a list of Protected Events and, if they know the password, they can go ahead to the Event details and Registration Form and they can fill it with their personal info. These points are resolved.

(3) Can I delete the ticket (as it is 0.00€) and just have a field like (for example) “number of attendants you want to reserve”?

I’d like to hide the ticket price because there is no price in fact. It is only a registration to the event. In this moment I named the ticket (instead of “free ticket”) like this: “register to this event” and it would be better not to see the price details. So yes, I need the CSS code to hide the details on the ticket selector, as you said.
however it sounds like you want users to register, then set the price on the event and have them pay for the new ticket price, is that correct?: nothing like this, I think I just badly explained my intentions 🙂

Ah ok, I only asked because its not as straight forward as changing the ticket price to change the price on registrations that have already been made.

You can hide the ticket price using:

.ee-ticket-selector-ticket-price-th, .tckt-slctr-tbl-td-price {
    display: none;
}

You can add that to Appearance -> Customize -> Additional CSS

Please refer to this guide for more detailed information about the CSS customizer: https://codex.wordpress.org/CSS#Custom_CSS_in_WordPress

That will hide the price on all of your events, if you want it to only happen on a specific I’ll need a link to that page to make it more specific.

Thank you Tony, it works perfectly for me. In this moment all the events are free, I don’t know how it will be in future…
Thank you again!
Have a nice day
