Check boxes to replace radio buttons in events with multiple registration types
For events where multiple registrations are enabled, it would be nice to have check boxes next to the registration types so the user can select multiple versus the radio buttons, as they are now, where they can only select one, go through the entire registration process and then Do it again for the other registrations. It’s not super intuitive to the user that they can register multiple times in this manner. Whereas having the check box option where they can select multiple types in one fell swoop would be so much more user friendly and easy for everyone.

I don't necessarily want to tell you how to solve it (check boxes vs radio buttons) but it would be very helpful to be able to purchase a membership, register for an event, and buy an add-on sponsorship all in one transaction.

Adding my voice to this one. I have added instructions to our event descriptions as a stopgap, but inevitably we get multiple members confused by it with every event.

This is a critical need for any business that is running event registrations. Rarely do events only have one ticket type. Due to the limitation within WA, we are forced to send multiple clarification emails to registrants to inform them to fill out multiple registrations. This also makes it difficult for businesses to track their total registration costs due to having multiple receipts for each registration. Any other event software has options to add the amount of ticket types needed (via text box). It is a bit baffling that WA does not offer this.

We’ve come across this issue as well. It would be fantastic if this were enabled so that you don’t have to have two separate transactions when cost is involved and just for ease of use.

I agree this would absolutely make it easier for people when they register.
Some people don't realise they have to go back in to register for the second type and we are missing out on registrations and then delegates miss out on registering for particular events.
Delegates only want to do 1 transaction.
Please make this change as soon as possible, thank you.

Not sure how to convince WA to add this option. This is a need and our members are suffering from the limitations with multiple choice selections

We would like an easier way to have multiple Event Ticket Types - where a member can go in and buy X number of tickets at $35 and X number of tickets at $10l. And have it count toward the total event cap. We have limited number of space due to the Fire Marshall - so it's extremely important to have an accurate attendee account. It's almost like a checkout cart feature. We want to have people pay on line. Now they have to run their credit card multiple times for an event instead of once.

This is a great idea and I would take it a step further: instead of checkboxes, it would be nice to have a text-box that takes a number next to each registration type, in case someone needs to register two of the same ticket type, e.g. 2 at an adult rate and 1 at a child rate.
