[Plugin: Events Manager] Communication with Attendees

    I have just downloaded and started to play with Events Manager (EM) and I am a relatively new WordPress user, too. I have a few questions regarding EM. I have looked through the forum and FAQ and have not spotted similar questions. I hope I have not overlooked a posting.

    1. As people register for an event and get approved in EM, it looks like they get automated e-mails. This is great. Now if I need to send an e-mail to them before or after that event, is that possible?

    2. Am I correct to assume that EM will send an automated e-mail to approved (or pending) attendees when something about an event has changed? For example, if the venue has been moved or the time of the event changed, will this be communicated automatically once the event information has been changed?

    3. If an event is sold-out, does EM offer waiting lists? If so, as bookings are cancelled and spaces become available, are automated messages sent to the top people on the waiting list inviting them to register (say, within 24 hours)?

    Many thanks in advance for your help!

    Marcus,

    Many thanks for the quick reply. I looked at the other post you mentiond and saw your comment “emails reminders aren’t implemented (again, yet), but a good developer should be able to program something like that by setting up a wp cron job.” I have a feeling I will be waiting for the feature as finding the time for the basics is already a challenge as this is not my day job. C’est la vie!

    In any case, thank-you again for your help.

    Hi Marcus,

    Any thoughts on whether or not a wait list is in the future for EM? I’ve got lots of folks who are begging me for one.
