This is absolutely awesome! It solves many problems for us.
Our conference is the first week of June and we start registering in March.
I look forward to integrating this function into this years' event.
Thanks!

Great!

Just want to add my thumbs up on getting this capability up & running. Bummed that it won't be until Jan 2016, but thanks for working on it.

This was rescheduled to January 2016 - our development team cannot keep up with original schedule.

Jenn - thanks for sharing. As you could have noticed, it has been already scheduled for release 5.7 which is planned for December, see our http://help.wildapricot.com/display/DOC/Product+roadmap

This would be a huge improvement for us. Due to this (and a few other big limitations), we have been researching other registration options. During our conference, we host tours and workshops with limits. With the inability to limit this on the registration form, I have to create an entire new event for tours and workshops so I can turn them off individually as limits are reached. This forces our attendees to have to register two to three times (their regular registration, a tour, and/or a workshop). This is VERY cumbersome for me to manage and for our attendees to deal with. Priority on this would be awesome!

I agree with the need to be able to limit specific items in the registration form. For instance, we use the form radio buttons to give members options to sign up for classes. Example:

Friday Night Classes:

A1 Make a dollhouse table ($40) Limit 10

A2 make a dollhouse chair by Sally Sue ($25) Limit: 12

A3 Construct a terrarium by Terri Tuttle ($55), Limit 5

It is hard to manage limits since we can't remove a radio option once it is full. Having the limits allows us to prevent over-selling those courses.

I'm in the same situation as you. It's very typical for events to have multiple workshops, and the fact this isn't in years later is rather crazy.

I've done a lot of researching into work arounds, and there is none. Right now in WA the solution is: 'tough it out'.

This functionality is key to our conference set up an we've been struggling for the past 3 years on doing all of this manually. I would think that this would be common thing for many organizations and I hope it's priority picks up!

It was so bad this last year that board members are asking us to change from WA. I am hoping to explore some other options with WA (like making each class a separate event) and was wondering if anyone else has suggestions on a work around.

No updates yet.

The order shows item priority in the roadmap - e.g. item is defined as important, by analysis and design has to be done before development. Development is working in order of priorities, but only with the items that are in dev queue.

Exceptions can happen though - sometimes, we can work on less important items due various to internal reasons.

Any update on this feature?

Again this would be amazing if it was implemented before October otherwise the event that is being held will be a super nightmare to manage due to the ability to over book rooms.

Also is the product road map ordering important? Because I see some that are at the analyzing phase above this feature which is set to Development Queue.

I understand you frustration, but this is what we say on our Roadmap page: "For your convenience, we also provide our best guess regarding release dates, but note that these can change at any time". This is exactly what happened, I updated the status of the roadmap to reflect what is currently in development and the nearest sure plans.

I understand that this is important for you and a lot of other people and this is why this request is in Roadmap at all (comparing to other ~800, which are not). Still, there a number of other requests that have higher priority in our list, they sit longer in our queue, more customers requested them, etc.

We will get to this one as soon as it's time for it. I cannot promise any specific date.

Why has this feature been delayed? It was planned for an 07 release developing and now has no date and is in the development queue.

This is an important feature for Event management, and it's quite stupid that this is not in the event. How do you limit the amount of seats in a workshop with the current WA event management? You simply can't.

This thread was created EIGHT YEARS AGO. and still zero progress has been made, I choose Wild Apricot because it hit 70% of what I needed, i'm ok with dealing with the missing 30%. But this feature is an integral part for my business, and plenty others based on the comments. I have an event on the 16th of October and I need this to be implemented in the events.

It honestly blows my mind this still hasn't been implemented.

Is there an update on this feature?

This is a key part of an event happening on October, and I just want to make sure this will actually be completed before then the roadmap seems to show it will.

Sorry, no workarounds.

Hi there

The WA site I am helping on requires this functionality too. They have a big event, which needs no limits on registrations, and this big event has educational classes that students can register with. Each class needs a limit. Creating multiple events for these classes isn't really an option as the user needs to pay one lump fee for the whole event.

I've scoured the WA forums and the internet and I haven't been able to find a solution. I noticed this functionality was raised 8 years ago, and it may be implemented in June this year (according to the Roadmap). This will be too late by then, so is there an work-around for this yet. I'm a web developer. I can't imagine any client-side scripting would work as the site's database would need updating. Feedback on this functionality would be appreciated by me and I'm sure a lot of users on this forum.

Cheers,

Lloyd

Our group is hosting a conference and I have setup Radio Buttons with Extra Cost to list 3 items for sale at the event. Not all registrants will purchase these items.

I would like the ability to limit each item to a specific number of items available for sale (to function the same as limits to registrations) and don't see a method to do this other than manually managing it. I assume that I must disable or hide the items when I have determined that items are sold out.

An additional feature that would be helpful is to have the available number of each item for sale displayed in the description and, as items are purchased, the number available for sale would be reduced. This is a feature I used with Constant Contact last year, however, the inventory function often displayed the incorrect number after sales and cancellations were processed. I had to track sales and inventory manually. Automating this task would be great!

It would also be helpful to have additional space to add more detailed descriptions of the items for sale.

If someone else has found a better way to offer items for sale during registrations, I would appreciate your advice since I am a relatively new user and member of this forum.

If you speak about limits on event registration then check this thread - http://forums.wildapricot.com/forums/308932-wishlist/suggestions/8825575-limit-number-of-selection-for-individual-registrat

Lormor: No, wait list won't work for individual registration options - just whole event and registration types.
