I am just now finding time to experiment with group registration.
From reading the forum, I think that I have figured out that in order to make your group settings stick, you must also add an individual setting to the prices list. I screwed this up on my test event.
But now I notice that I cannot edit this after saving the event. There are no empty lines for the group rates.
Is that normal? Do I need to delete the event and start over? Or is there a way to add group rates after saving the event? (Seems like there should be...)
UPDATE:
Nope, there must be some other problem. When I attempt to add an individual rate to the group rates list, it tells me that my group must have more than 1 member.
What am I doing wrong here? How do I configure both individual and group in the same event?
UPDATE #2:
OK, so then I tried selecting group only from the drop-down box. But when I saved it, it defaulted to individual only and lost my group rates. I think that I am doing something fundamentally wrong...
Hello. The ability to edit your group rate does exist. Go to Components -> DT Register -> Registration Management.
You\'ll find a list of events you have setup. All events must have an individual rate established! Even for a group registration, all you HAVE to have is the individual rate set. For example, the individual rate is $5.00. Then a user selects group registration for 5 people. It will simply calculate 5 x $5.00 for a total price of $25.00.
The optional Group Registration Rates are only needed if you are offering a discounted rate for a certain group size. So you could input 5 members with a group rate of $20, which would be $4 per person. This establishes a discounted rate per person when you have 5 or more members.
In this example, 4 members would cost $20. However, bump to 8 members and you now only pay $4/person so the cost is $32.
You can setup multiple group rate levels providing different amounts of discount at different numbers of registrants.
Back on the list of events in the Registration Management page, you\'ll see one entry for an event if you only setup individual rates. If you setup one or more group rate levels, you will see a separate entry for that same event, one for each group rate level. This allows you to edit the pricing of each individual rate level as needed. To edit one, click on the event name, change the price, then Save. For group rates, be sure to change BOTH the group rate and the rate per person and make sure they calculate correctly.
You are also able to delete a rate level, but you must leave the individual rate entry for each event. Unfortunately at the present time, you can not add additional group rate levels after the initial setup. You\'ll need to delete the event (in DT Reg, not in Jevents) and then set it up again. This will be improved on very soon.
