Setting event category on registration

I use event espresso for horseback-riding trips.

Right now I use category to set the skill-level for the event. (Experienced, some experience, or no experience ) The category is set when I create the event.

My question is this: Is it possible to make the skill-level of the first
attendee the category of the event?

For example: the first attendee that registers chooses his skill-level (some experience) from a dropdown (which is a question), and that skill-level then becomes the category for the event.

How would I go about doing that? I have some webdeveloper-skills, and have already customized EventEspresso a bit, but I dont really know where to start here.

Thanks =)

Hi Karen,

You could create a dropdown selector where each selection was a link to an event of the matching category or skill level.

A good place to start would be with the bootstrap dropdowns:

Thank you, but I think you misunderstood my question. (It was propapbly poorly explained)

Here is step by step what I hope to accomplish:

  • Make a new event, without setting the category.
  • Have 3 possible categories in the form of a dropdown-question on the registrationpage for the event.
    • The category that the FIRST registered attendee chooses, is set as the category for the event.

in coding terms im trying to do this:

if(there are no attendees for this event yet) {
setEventCategory(selected value from the dropdown-question)
}

No, this is not possible. It would require custom development, but, honestly, I can’t even see how this would be feasible. The best case that I can think of would involve putting write level access to your event (to update the event category) on the front end of your site, which would be extremely sketchy in terms of security if it wasn’t done correctly.
