I’m creating an event and I don’t want to use the Personal Information question group. I have defined a group that I would rather use instead, but under “Question for Primary Registrant” it doesn’t give you the option to uncheck that group (there is not checkbox next to it so I’m assuming it is permanently on).

I would also be fine with being able to uncheck the First Name and Email Address boxes in the Personal Information section so I could just make that my custom question group.

Hi there,

It isn’t actually possible to remove the Personal Information group in Event Espresso.

Why is that? I can’t even edit the email address question. I want an email address field but I don’t want it to be required. Some of my client’s students don’t have email addresses so he’s always had that field as not required. How can I fix that?

Hi there,
Those are required fields because without an email address there isn’t a way to send registration confirmation emails. I do not have instructions that show how to change this so that email addresses are not required. Assuming that you were to change this somehow, what would happen when the automated email notifications get generated to send?

well if I was writing a back end for this I would just check for an email address and if it existed then send the confirmation, if not do something else (probably send a confirmation to the admin of the site letting them know that the person registered without an email address so he would know to mail out the registration information which is what they do now).
