TOPIC: Change the attendees list

I ended up hacking the code to just keep the first letter of the last name in the attendee list so that instead of displaying "Bob Smith", it would just display "Bob S"... that will work for me until a formal solution is developed.

The file I changed was: /components/com_dtregister/views/event/tmpl/registrant_name.php

I just changed the code that adds the last name to the list so that it would only use the first letter:

Guys, we're about to release 2.7.4 (hopefully today) and one of the changes is that we removed the requirement of including the firstname and lastname in the attendee's list. So once you get the update, you won't have to hack anything

Awesome! Thank you.

I have a slightly different question about the attendees list, maybe someone can tell me if this is normal?

I have 3 open registrations right now, if I select fields to be available to view in the front end, the front end shows all fields that I have checked/turned on, even if they don't belong to that event. So if I am looking at the attendees from the first event, the fields from the second and third events also show up as headers in the list. This doesn't make sense to me but maybe I am doing something wrong? Any help getting only the fields that belong to that event to show would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Hi, I have asked the same question - and put a post in the 'wish list' section of the forum for the developers to allow a per event registration list. It would be great if you want this functionality if you could add you name to the post there so that the devs can see what we want and how many people want it!

Thanks,

Richard.

The changes mentioned here for removing firstname/lastname as being required and also filtering the list per event based on what fields are used or not used for the event have all been incorporated in the new 2.7.4. Thanks.
