TOPIC: [SOLVED] Changing a field to Fee Field not working

I can confirm this quirk in version 2.7.5.

The only way to get a fee field to work -- meaning add the fee to the Event Registration Total — is to go into the individual event, "Field Tab" and uncheck the "Default" radio button under "used for this event?"

After unchecking "Default" the fee adds correctly.

Have not tried this with the newest version yet.

Thanks for sharing this. This thread just solve half an hour of stress.

Yes, still a quirk in 3.0.7

Steps to reproduce:
1) In backend, create a drop down field titled Test Fee.
2) Apply values of 10|20|30 with selection limits of 0|0|0
3) Check Fee Field and apply fees of 10|20|30. Fee type: Amount.
4) Default Settings: All Events-Yes, Show-Individual, Required-Yes, Group Registrations-Each Member
4) Save field
5) In frontend, go through registration form as individual and make selection in Test Fee field of 10, 20, or 30. The expected fee is not added.
6) In backend, select the particular event and then select Fields.
7) For "Test Fee" in "Used for this event?", select "Individual" (or "Both"). Something besides default.
Save field
9) Go through registration process again and fee is applied correctly.

In doing this testing with 2.7.4, I can't get a fee field to work unless I go into the individual event and change away from the Default option for that particular field.

THANKS!!! Solved a problem for me!

This is an extremely old thread being resurrected... but I wanted to clarify... as it is only PARTIALLY correct.

After changing the fee structure of a field, you DO need to open and re-save the event for the new options to be applied fully.

However, you do NOT have to change ANYTHING in the event. You can leave the field set to Default or whatever it is set on. The only task needed is opening and re-saving the event.

This happened for me today - just updated to latest version. The fields work properly after opening and re-saving the event.
