Limit Number of Registrants per Form

[David]

Hi guys – I have a client that had made this request.
Can you comment on if Events Tickets Plus is capable :

“Last year we found that organizations were registering up to 10 people onto the same form and one email, without having to put the attendees names.
How can we ensure that there is a limited number of registrants per form? We would like to limit registration of up to 3 attendees per form, and require that attendee names and emails are provided (and that duplicate emails can’t be used). This way, each attendee can have their own personal scanned code in their emails, and one person cannot check in all 3 without the attendee present.”

Any feedback would be appreciated!

Hi David,

First, you can use the custom fields feature of Event Tickets Plus to collect additional info from each attendee – if you set the fields to “required”, then the person purchasing the tickets will need to input an email address for each attendee.

You should be able to limit the number of tickets purchased per order, but there is currently a bug with this…as a workaround, you can do a template override of the tickets.php template; this is the template that you’ll want to put in your child theme.

If you would like to limit the number of tickets purchased per user, I would recommend taking a look at one of the following third-party add-ons. Tickets are essentially WooCommerce simple products and typically work pretty well with add-ons like these.

However, there is not an out-of-the-box way to prevent the same email address/name from registering again, or require that all attendees be present at check-in – this could be done via a customization. If you’d like to give it a shot, our themer’s guide is the place to start!

If these are features that you would like to see added in the future, please do let us know over in our Feature Ideas Forum! This is what we use to gauge user interest in new features and help guide future development efforts.

I’m sorry I don’t have a more straight-forward solution for you here, but please let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks,

Jennifer
