Q1: When signing up for the waiting list the button ‘join the waiting list’ is not visible and disappears behind the footer, even when I change the z-index for the footer.

The waitlist form has a z-index of 9999, however, child elements can not have a higher z-index than their parents and as your ‘container’ element has a z-index of 100, so does the waitlist form. Changing it can be done, but you’ll need to alter the parent elemtns index and work through until it works.

Another simple solution is to set the Waitlist form positioning to be relative using:

.event_wait_list-hidden-inputs {
    position: relative;
}

That will force the footer down when the waitlist form is shown.

Does that work better for you?

Q2: I would also add one extra text field to the waiting list when people want to sign up.

The waitlist form is intended as a placeholder so it only loads first name, last name and email address. You can add some additional fields that are assigned to the EE_Contact such as phone number (see HERE) but additional registration based questions we don’t include and would need custom development to save the details.

Do you see something different on your end?

I can see the styles are applying through your themes style.css file:

.event_wait_list-hidden-inputs {
    position: relative !important;
}

So I assume that is what you are referring to but either way, I’m glad you found a solution.
