Coming Soon to a Tendenci Website Near You…
…Anyone Can Register Anyone with Tendenci’s Event Registration Upgrade!
We’ve updated the event registration system with new features that will go live in all Tendenci websites later this week.
Once the new system is implemented, Tendenci site admins will be able to enable event registration for anyone by anyone else when registering for one of your events. This includes registering someone who qualifies for a discount.
You and your members will be able to use this new feature to register your friends and professional associates for events for them and pay the correct discounted price they are eligible for. You won’t have to share login information and passwords or miss out on event registrations because someone wanted to register but didn’t have time or forgot.
How it will work:
As an attendee who is not logged in: you click the register button, select one of the available prices and submit your registration. You can repeat the second step as many times as permitted [by the event] to include more people.
In order to qualify for discounted pricing, you’ll be asked to submit your email address or member number. You can register using a discounted price if the email address or member number submitted is eligible. You can also repeat this step as many times as permitted.
If an email address is associated with a discounted price, that email address can only be used once to register. If the email address is not associated with a discounted price, the email address can be used repeatedly. This will prevent someone from using the same email address for a member to register their non-member friends just to get the discounted price.
Enjoy!
