TOPIC: Cart Issue When Wait List Enabled

Here is the scenario, I have an event that is full but wait list is enabled. Everything works as it should, when someone tries to register, they get the wait list message, fill out the form and get an on screen confirmation that they have been added to the wait list "You have been added to the Wait List for this event. You will be notified if space becomes available. Thank you.".

Ok, the issue is that this event (the one that they have been added to the wait list for), is now showing up in their cart even though they have submitted their info and it has been confirmed. So if they click on "View My Cart" the cart page opens and if they then click on the "Checkout" button, they are directed to the confirmation page that a paid registrant receives when their payment has gone through.

So even though this person has not actually registered, they are able to access the confirmation page for those that have paid their money. I use this page to provide further information and event directions that only paid participants should have access to. Now wait list people have access to this private information as well.

Is this how the "Wait List" function should work? I would think that once the wait list form has been completed, the process would end there and this event would not show up in the cart because their is no need for a cart function. Am I wrong? Do I have an incorrect setting somewhere that is causing this?

Thanks for any help in advance.
