Can I add the following functionality with Events Manager?

1. this is available to EMPro – https://wp-events-plugin.com/documentation/automated-emails/

2. yes, this is available in the backend with Events > Bookings
– edit bookings and then click Modify Booking

3. this is available to EMPro – https://wp-events-plugin.com/documentation/custom-booking-forms/ However phone number should be available in free version also.

Angelo,

Thanks for your response. However, I am not sure you correctly understood my second question..

Can my MEMBERS see who else RSVP’d and how many other RSVP’s there are? I am testing this as a user and not as Admin and I do not see this, even in the backend. Also, as an end user I can’t edit my bookings on the front end or the backend.

Thanks in advance.

I see now, you can only see the rsvp details of the event if you are the event owner however normal or subscriber users can only see their bookings using my-bookings page.

to test, login as subscriber user and then create a new event then go to Events > Settings > Pages > Other Pages > Manage bookings page (assign a page to manage bookings in the frontend) you should see the booking details of your event. but try to check user capabilities at Events > Settings > General > User Capabilities to override or change permission.

I did test.

I do not want Subscribers to be able to add events. I only want them to see how many and WHO has RSVP’d for each event. Would be great if this was on the event listing itself.

I am trying to create something at least equal to Meetup, which let’s you see who has RSVP’d as well as how many RSVP’s. I get more RSVP’s if people know there are a lot of people coming.

It would be great if you built this into the functionality. I’d be inclined to purchase the Pro if it had this.

And while testing as a subscriber, I cannot see the event I RSVP’d for.

btw, thank you for your very quick responses. I really appreciate it. ??

You can prevent your subscribers from adding events within Events > Settings > General > User Capabilities – https://wp-events-plugin.com/documentation/user-capabilities/

Yes, you could make this work using our placeholders like #_ATTENDEESLIST, however this only prints out the name of the person making the booking, not attendees (for that you’d need to custom code the extra information to be output). You can also show number of booked spaces etc. with others, for more info on available placeholders, see https://wp-events-plugin.com/documentation/placeholders/

You can hide this placeholder using conditional placeholders like {logged_in} – https://wp-events-plugin.com/documentation/conditional-placeholders/

hope that helps!

Hi Marcus,

I saw those. Is there any way to add them so that members can see that info on the front end, when they haven’t RSVP’d yet? I really want members to be able to see who’s going before they RSVP.

Thanks,

~Matt

You should be able to add them at any point in your template “sequence”, alongside your booking form, for example. That way, users would be able to see who’s already attending the event.

Ok, I’m not a developer and I don’t work with code much. Where can they be added? Inside the plugin settings in the backend of WordPress? Or do I have to put them in the code somewhere?

you can add placeholder #_ATTENDEESLIST at Events > Settings > Formatting > Events > Default single event format
