Register for main event was created by jythra
Hi, 
I'm looking at Events Booking for a conference solution. In the conference there will be multiple tacks with topics and speakers. Like JoomlaDays.
I think the conference itself will be a category and the topics (with different speakers) are the events within that category. 
What I need now is the possibility for people to register for the whole conference, not for the individual events with that conference. Is that possible and how would I set this up?

Hope you can help.

With kind regards,
Rachel Walraven

Hi Rachel

Basically, you can create a main event to allow users to register. Then when they register for that event, you can have the system registers them automatically to the other sub-events you want. That is handled by this plugin docs.joomdonation.com/eventsbooking/plugins/auto-registration

Tuan

Hi Tuan,

Ok, but that would mean that it will show up like a separate event within the conference right? I am afraid that will make it a bit confusing. But if that what it is, it will have to do ;-).

With kind regards,

Hi Tuan,
Thanks for this explanation here, I've just set up one parent event for Tuition with the full price of $X, and will auto-register people for the 11 child events in the class (each at $0), for a total of 12 events. This should work well.

Best,
Nicole

I have a related question: I set up a main event with 10 child events (a total of 11 events) and I have ICS generation turned on. "Register participant to child events" is also turned on.

I registered myself for the main event so the component would send me all of the ICALs, but I only received the email for the first class. How can I receive all the emails for the child events, too?

Here's why this is so beneficial for me: I run 3 classes in 3 trimesters of 11-12 weeks each per year, so I'm looking at a minimum total of 105 calendar events per year for me as well as for every single client in those classes. ICALs/emails are a HUGE help to me. :)

Could you please explain how did you configure the system to"Register participant to child events" so that I can understand more about your setup?

I'm happy to! I enabled the plugin "Events Booking - Auto Registration" ( docs.joomdonation.com/eventsbooking/plugins/auto-registration ) and set up a parent event with 10 child events. In the parent event I set "Auto Register To All Children Events" to YES.

Then I registered myself for the event, however I only received the Event registration confirmation for the first event.

Ohhhh, I just looked and the plugin setting "Send Notification Email" was off. I turned it in, unregistered myself and deleted those notifications, re-registered myself, and IT WORKED!

HURRAY!! :)

And I learned more, have a good one, Tuan! :)

Yes. Set Send Notification Email parameter inside the plugin to Yes will solve the issue. I'm glad you figured out
