TOPIC: Waiver?

Is there anyway to implement a waiver field? Many events have a waiver that the person needs to read (and eventually agree to). I need to be able to display a fair amount of readonly text within the event registration form (like a readonly textbox with scrollbars).

Hello. I believe what most users of this component do is create a custom field as a checkbox and make the checkbox lable be the text or waiver. The user checks the box to agree. You can also make the checkbox required so they can not register without checking it. Thanks.

The label field is truncated to 99 characters, making it impossible to implement most waivers. Sporting event waivers average around 500 to 750 characters, and with bigger events, upwards of 2000 characters.

We need to have a waiver / terms and conditions type field on the event registration form -- its basically a show stopper without for us.

Any other ideas?

You could modify the database field and change the 99 to a larger number. I know other users have done this. Thanks.

It seems to work to change the size of the table row (dt_donate_fields:label ----> originally 100, change to 500 or something for a waiver), but the form\'s field length needs to be modified in the php code as well, and there are multiple forms from what I can tell. I think a waiver field is a good idea.

I just pasted the waiver into the database in PHP admin, after changing the length of the row, and that worked fine....

Thanks for the great component!

Actually, the waiver looks better, if you put it in the description field.
