greetings,
How can I edit the waitlist popup to include a phone number? the pop up doesn’t seem to follow my regular registration rules.

also how can change the default ticket name/type on the create event page from FREE TICKET to REGISTRATION ONLY?

thanks

Hi there,

The waitlist form is a completely separate form which collects minimal details for the contact to place them on a waitlist, it does not use any of the registration form settings/fields set in EE normally.

However, you can use a snippet like this to add a phone field:

https://github.com/eventespresso/ee-code-snippet-library/blob/master/addons/eea-wait-lists/tw_ee_add_registrant_phone_to_waitlist_form.php

Add that to a custom functions plugin on your site, we have some documentation on creating one here:

https://eventespresso.com/wiki/create-site-specific-plugin-wordpress-site/

also how can change the default ticket name/type on the create event page from FREE TICKET to REGISTRATION ONLY?

Do you only have 1 ticket showing up when you create the event? If so it sounds like someone already edited the name as it will show as ‘Base Price’.

Go to Event Espresso -> Pricing.

Do you see a ‘FREE TICKET’ price listed there? If so, edit that to ‘REGISTRATION ONLY’.

Any new events will use that base price to create the default ticket.
