Some questions

Hi members of the forum of JoomDonation,
I am new hire, just installed Event Booking and need answer on some question.First a bit of explication;I am working on a site for a diving-club that worked before with AllEvents, Communuty Builder in Joomla 3. Now I am working with Joomla 6, Community Builder still works under Joomla 6, but AllEvents….NO WAY. Therefore, I installed Event Booking to test it and seems working well in Joomla 6. I installed also the plug-in “plug_cb_ebregistrationhistory.zip”.Now my questions;
1.       We do not have events that we must pay. We need only subscription on an event to know who is free to dive with a “ buddy” on a specific day and place. With AllEvents we had (members of the club) the possibility to reserve our place without to go in a checkout form. Is this possible to do in Events Booking ? If Yes …where to set? I did not find it in general settings in EB.
2.       If we organize a dinner, we have to know if the member comes with his wife and children, so is it possible, for the member, after his inscription to modify the number of persons that comes with him? If Yes …where to set? I did not find it in general settings in EB.
3.       If we do an external holiday-trip and reserve a diving boat for next year, where there is a max possibility of 20 divers, when already 20 divers has reserved on site for the trip. Is there the possibility to have more reservations and thy coming on the “waiting list”? In addition, when someone has unsubscribed on site, then the first on waiting list go automatic in the reservation list of 20?
Thanks in advance if you have some answers and directions in settings for me.

Hi Patrick

1. About register without going to checkout form: It requires users to login to do that. Go to Events Booking -> Configuration, set Reduce Registration Process config option to Yes and check the result, it should work as expected

2. Where do he specify Number of members for his registration? Normally, if you want to allow users to update data, you can create a menu item to link to Registration History menu item type of Events Booking. Your registrants, can access to that menu item, see their registration history and update it

3. Yes. You can enable waiting list feature in the extension, see docs.joomdonation.com/eventsbooking/basic-setup/waiting-list

Hi Tuan,
THANKS for your answer !
Events Booking seems to work great for the replacement of AllEvents.
However, I have a question; on the event presentation, I have the Registrants List between the Event Information and the Google map. Where I see “First Name” “Last Name” and “Regstrants”.
From our old site with Allevents, we had Photo (the avatar of our member), Name (complete –first name and last name), GSM number and number of registrants.
Is this possible to show also? And how?
I do not find “Image” under Events Booking -> Custom Field -> New -> Field Type .
Or how to get this info from Community Builder?
Again Thanks for your help.

Hi Patrick

We do not have photo data displayed there. If you need to have it displayed, you will need to customize code to get avatar from community builder and display it here. It should not be hard if you know code, the file you need to modify is components/com_eventbooking/themes/default/registrantlist/default.php. When change is done, you should move the modified file to template override so that the change won't be lost when you update to future releases of Events Booking

Hi Tuan,

OK thanks for info.
But what about Name (complete –first name and last name) and GSM number?
In your documentation -> docs.joomdonation.com/eventsbooking/basi...hronize-profile-data
In Community Builder;
To synchronize data with Community Builder, please follow the steps below:
1. Go to System -> Plugins, find and publish the plugin Event Booking - CB plugin
2. Go to Events Booking -> Custom Fields, click on the custom field you want to synchronize data to edit, look at Field Mapping property, select the corresponding field in Community Builder which will be synchronized with this field. Save it.
3. Repeat step #2 for all other fields you want

I created a new field “gsm” with Title “GSM” and in Fields Mapping I put “cb_portale”.
In Frontend, I see the Title “GSM” next to registrants…..but the field is empty ?
What dit I wrong ?

Hi Patrick

It's hard to say what's wrong without checking your setup. So please submit a support ticket and we will discuss further from there
