I have a user who was able to sign up for the same event two times in a row; same wp-user, same info, same everything. Does the plugin not check for previously registered individuals?

Note, I already found the Javascript by Josh concerning double booking event per unit time but I feel this is out of scope of my problem.

Hi Jerry,

Currently Event Espresso does not prevent multiple registrations from the same user onto an event, all users are free to register onto the event any number of times.

Restricting registrations and single registration per event would require some custom development.

Are you using EE3 or EE4?

I am using EE3 and I have no problem doing some custom development! Just point me in the right direction/files!

I actually have an attendance-sheet module I added to our EE3 installation; let me know if this is something you guys would like to add in the future!

Hi,

Not sure if this is useful to you or not, but this is somethng I made a while back: https://gist.github.com/Apina/f11b5ce2db10f7b3bb93

It doesn’t stop users from signing up, but does add a warning that they have already signed up. It could be used as a base to create something more bulletproof for your needs. It needs the EE3 WP User Integration addon to work.
