minimum number of participants

Hi,

is there somewere a parameter where I can define the minimum number of participants?

Cheers

Peter

Hi Peter

This question is not very clear to me. After you define that parameter, how you expect the system to work?

Hi Tuan,

I still have an other app. It shows via coloured dots the status: light green= minimun not reached, dark green = event takes place, red = full

Peter

It would be better to use yellow/orange for minimum not reached - means it's in danger of being cancelled. Green means go. Probably better to use a different color for full, honestly I would think that red means cancelled.

how ever, it would be great to see it at a glance.

Unfortunately, it's not supported now. However, if you have a sample, send it to me (screenshot or link). I will think about it and might add support for it in future releases

Regards,

Tuan

That would be very interesting and usefull for my purpose, because the "place availability" would be more visible and immediate

Hello,

I have a use case of minimum number of participants as well. For that I created an extra field. The system should work with that parameter to bring one more step to the event management process:

1.) Some events will not take place if a minimum number of participants are not reached -> Option yes/no in event setting

2.) In the phase before cut-off date or event start date user can register for that event and they will receive a message that their registration has been confirmed but with the added message:
"We will contact you with a final confirmation that the event will take place as soon as we receive the minimum amount of applications for your chosen event."

3.) minimum amount reached until cut-off date -> Final confirmation will be send out to registrants and system updates event status.
minimum amount not reached and cut-off date reached -> Sorry message to registrants that the event won't take place.

Hope that this business case gets considered in the coming updates!

Thank you,
Chris

Hi folks,

I just came across this thread; I've had parts of this for a few years already. Originally the first jQuery below changed the background in the td that displays the number of registrants.

To make this happen I added class="bg_status" to that td and class="avai" to the td where number of available slots are displayed. These edits are in the file public_html/components/com_eventbooking/view/common/tmpl/event_properties.php

These days I have two venues where one is somewhat remote and the other is very remote; for the first I need a minimum of 6 and for the other 12 participants before the events takes place.

I'm live with a work-in-progress using this code entered via custom Javascript in my template:

class="where" added in td after EB_LOCATION

It works already, but needs some more work. All coding provided by the community at stackoverflow.com

Rgds,

Petter

Hi Petter

Thanks for sharing the script. However, instead of adding javascript code to add background color like that, I think it's better to modify PHP code directly if you know PHP

Look at the file components/com_eventbooking/view/common/tmpl/event_properties.php , you should see the code which display that information, the the number of available place easily (not having to parse HTML code using jquery like that) and use background color you want
