I want to set up one event that happens over 4 separate days. It is a swim lessons class that meets once a week (eg Monday at 430) over the month of October. How do I do this so it function correctly and appear on the calendar correctly? | |
| September 23, 2013 at 12:55 am I would setup 4 separate events with the same information, either manually or via REM. Then on Swim class 2, 3 & 4 setup the ‘Alternative Registration Page’ to be Swim Class 1’s registration page. To do this look on the right hand side of those 3 events, in Event Options. Second field from the bottom. http://d.pr/i/yXVN Input the full url for Swim Class 1 into that box. This way although there are 4 events, all ‘swimmers’ are actually signing up to class 1 which ever class they click on. |

September 23, 2013 at 12:31 pm The way that Tony described is what we have found to be the best way to handle that type of situation. You would use the registration list of the first class as the “master” list for all the classes in the series. The only other alternative is to use the Multiple Event Registration add-on, and have an add-to-cart button that adds all the events in the series to the cart at once. But then you would have to spread the cost of the combined events over all the events (if it’s $5 for the series of 5 events, then each would be $1 in the cart). Otherwise, you would have some of the events in the series with no cost on them. And the user would have the option in the cart to remove some of the events in the series. That’s part of the reason why we’ve found that the method Tony described has been the best solution. | |
I will try that. | |
