Suggested Logic - Team Register, 4 persons/team

I started off using CIVICRM, but decided to give your component a try.

Can I get your help with the logic here?

I need to create a competition event.
Test Site Paramedic Competition
test.paramediccompetition.ca/register

There are 4 persons on a team, with a Team Entry fee of $400

The team needs to have only 1 registration, but have the information of 4 people.

Right now I tried the group setting, but it asks me 4 times for the same information for each person, despite there being onely 1 team. So is the only option then to do the Individual Registration, but create custom fields for all the other required participants.

When I go with the Group option, they are not able to create Joomla account? Why is that? They won't be able to edit their information after without an account?

[strike]
Where can I edit this? $headerText = JText::_('EB_INDIVIDUAL_REGISTRATION')
As I need change all the "individual" words to say "Team Registration"[/strike]

********* Never mind, I found the language file


Thanks for your help

Hi Tim

I think I should make something clear to you :

1. For group registration, you can choose to collect member information or not. This can be turned on/off via Configuration of Event Booking. Just look for config option Collect Members Information in Group Registration and turn it on/off to try .

2. You can turn off any fields in group member form. For example, if you don't want to collect last name of member, you can turn on last name field.

3. To allow register for an account, you need to set User registration integration config option to Yes. For group registration, only the member who make the registration can register for an account. For other members in the group, they cannot choose the account. In this case, only the member who perform the registration can perform registration

Thanks,

Thanks Tuan.

That helped me to clarify process. I'll take the individual route then add the custom fields to collect the registrations information

Cheers
