Can A User Add A Value To A Drop Down?

[Andrew Smith]

We have need of an events registration system and currently your software is the closest match. However, there is one caveat. The registrants need to be grouped in teams and they would need to select the team from a drop down. So the custom fields works for that. But they also need to be able to create a team on the fly while registering.

In summary, is there a way for a user to create a value that would be added to a custom field drop down while entering their registration?

Thanks!

Hi, Andrew.

It sounds like you would need a linked custom taxonomy or, more likely, a custom post type instead of our PRO Additional Fields functionality.

You’ll also want to reference https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/abstract-post-types/ and possibly use that functionality along with our Community Events add-on.

Then your custom post type will work like Community Events’ Venue or Organizer fields. You can see a demo of Community Events at http://wpshindig.com/events/community/add — or it’ll work like Venue and Organizer fields in the wp-admin post editor.

Last but not least, we have a pretty great Refund Policy so you can buy one or many of our add-ons and thoroughly test them.

I hope this info helps. Let me know if you have any follow-up questions.

Hey there! This thread has been pretty quiet for the last three weeks, so we’re going to go ahead and close it to avoid confusion with other topics. If you’re still looking for help with this, please do open a new thread, reference this one and we’d be more than happy to continue the conversation over there.

Thanks so much!
