Some more questions

Hi there, got some questions to ask :

1- How does one duplicate an event? I want to customise one event and then be able to just change the date and other small info
2- Is there a way to get all bookings as email alerts into my email inbox so i can monitor the traffic of our events ? I currently have this facility with wufoo and it’s quite useful
3- When I link mailchimp to our events and peoples email addresses are added to a mailing list will they get an option to opt out of receiving these mail outs? Is there any way for them to verify before they sign up for an event as to whether they would like to be added to our mailing list? Or are they just added in and then they can unsubscribe?
4- How do you customise the q’s that people fill out in the booking form? We want to ask our attendees how did you find out about the event and have 4-5 options for them to select from
5- Despite the fact that I have checked that our WP setting are all to UK, when I link a card payment plugin it only gives USA or canada as addresses to fill out. How do I change this?
6- In the EE app, are people who sign up listed in alphabetical order of last name? If not how could I make this happen as we can have up to hundreds of people for our events?

This is all for now

Best,

Simon

Hello,

Several of these questions are answered in the quick start guide for Event Espresso 4 so I recommend checking that out if you haven’t had a chance:

https://eventespresso.com/wiki/welcome-to-event-espresso/#event-espresso-4

I’ll go ahead and answer your questions here so we can get you moving forward with your project. If you have new question, then please create new support posts for those new questions.

1) The duplicate button appears in the event editor under the event title appear and it looks like this:

2) The person that creates the event should be getting email notifications. That is turned on by default. If you are not receiving any emails, then please setup a free transactional email service like Mailgun or Sendgrid:

https://eventespresso.com/wiki/postmark-app-mandrill-transactional-email-handling-services/

3) They will be asked to complete the opt-in by clicking a link via MailChimp. If they click it, then they are added. If they do not click it, then they won’t be added

4) Here is a tutorial on how to create new questions:

https://eventespresso.com/wiki/add-questions-event-espresso-question-groups/

For your example, a dropdown question type would be a good fit for a question group that is assigned to the primary registrant only. Otherwise, this question will be requested for all additional attendees/registrants

5) Here is a video on making that change through Event Espresso –> General Settings –> Countries:

https://eventespresso.com/wiki/change-countries-used-event-espresso/#video

6) I’m not sure about this but I’ll find out and update this support post

Hello again,

I wanted to share an update on the mobile apps question.

The current version of the app does sorts by registration ID and an upcoming version that is undergoing internal testing sorts alphabetically (a – z).
