Is there a way to automatically create a waitlist event?  Specifically, I could benefit from two options:

1) A button on the Event Overview page that automatically creates a duplicate of an event, appends WAITLIST to the end of the event title, makes it’s status ‘waitlist’, and links the original event to new waitlist event.   Basically, a tool to automate about 5 steps we usually do manually.

2) A trigger that automatically does the steps above for any event that reaches a certain percentage capacity.  We would want to be able to set whether or not a waitlist event should be auto-created, and perhaps at what point – either by remaining seat count or by percentage.

If these don’t exist, please add them to the new feature requests!  And if I’m just missing them somewhere (perhaps because I haven’t upgraded my version in a while?), please let me know where to find them.

Also, if I wanted to edit the Event Overview admin page to add such a button, which files would I need to change?  Can I put my overridden files for that page in the uploads directory?

Finally, I would love to see the Transfer Attendee feature added, as well, so that we can pull people from wait lists onto real events.

Thanks!
