Hello – Just started using EE4. Is it possible to have a list of additional items in the registration page that users can select in addition to a ticket option?

We use EE for our golf tournament and the registration of golfers is easy, but we would like to give users the ability to select an additional “hole sponsorship” which would be an additional fee.

http://www.mcaepa.org – I currently have the sponsorships set up as “tickets” which is certainly not the best format, but it works for now.

Please let me know if you have any advice or suggestions.

Thanks!

Hi geobstel,

Currently that is the best option (that I can think of). Can you describe how this is “certainly not the best format”? I’d like to hear your description of a better process and a suggestion possibly how you might see it work with EE4.

Hi Garth,

Yes- In a perfect situation I would like a user to have the ability to register multiple players, include the names and companies of the additional players based on the number they select, and then select a sponsorship option if they would like.

To do this I would need to create a question group for the additional attendees. That is no problem, but if I do this the system would then require the user to put in a name and company for the sponsorship option that is selected because the system just views the sponsorship option as another “ticket”. This would cause confusion for anyone who puts in their name and company and is then prompted for an additional name and company when the sponsorship “ticket type” is selected.

I currently avoid that confusion by having a question group for the primary registrant that asks for the names of the additional players and then do not require additional attendee question groups.

A solution would be to allow for “additional items” on the registration page in the form of a check box or drop down menu that could have various options and prices. This option would not require “attendee info”.

The process would look like this:
1. Select the ticket you want (in my case the # of golfers)
2. Select additional items (in my case a sponsorship of varying price points)
3. Get a prompt to include the name, company, etc. of those registered attendees
4. Checkout

Tried to make it as clear as I could. Please let me know what you think.

Thanks,
Geoff

Hi Geoff,

Question groups are currently set on a per event basis.

Conditional question groups on a per ticket basis would help in this case. This is something that we are considering in a future version of Event Espresso.
