Multiple organizers for a single event
Implement a capability to assign multiple email addresses as organizers to a particular event. Right now, you can only assign 1 organizer to a "particular" event.

Thank you for your feedback.
We’re building a new feature that will cover this request: an Event organizer role, which lets someone run specific events without access to the rest of the account. Plus, the ability to assign multiple people as Event organizers to one event.
Please see the original idea for the details of what’s coming: https://forums.wildapricot.com/forums/308932/suggestions/11284896.
We’ll post there when the feature has a firm release date.
Have a good day!

As a volunteer run activity club we have many course and trip events run by a different organizer. This would be a helpful feature to have each organizer access their participant list and contact them without an admin needing to do it for each event, and redoing it periodically when participants change (additional people added, cancel, waitlisted people move into the participant list). We don't want each organizer having the ability to change the event listing or payment structure in any way though since we have rules for how each event is set up. For frequent organizers we have given them read only access but this does not help them interact with specific event participants and gives them access to the entire back end which is not our intention.

I've had to create fake contacts and google group email addresses to get around this issue. It would be better to fix it. Thanks!

Could you add the ability to have more than one event organizer in the event form? We often have co-chairs who are hosting an event so both need to get the emails as to who is coming.

To add to my comment of almost THREE YEARS AGO ...
In addition to having a Reservationist and an Organizer (each specific to that event), we routinely cc registration emails (using a hybrid system involving our domain registrar) to the respective Manager for that type of event, and sometimes one or two others. Unless WA made the list of optional recipients customizable by us, it would be cumbersome to include so many options. It would work just as well to be able to set up each event as a distinct Contact and autoforward from that Contact to the multiple recipients. I've just spoken with Support, who says currently that is not possible. A separate wish. -

Likewise, we have (2) co organizers for almost all events. So, having multiple email addresses would be a great help.

Multiple coordinators/contacts for an event.

Allow two or more people to be associated with an Event. E.g., there might be co-Organizers, or there (often) might be an Organizer and a different person as Reservationist.

We have many events where there are two or more organizers (hosts). It would be great if all the hosts received emails concerning their event.

Cassandra - thanks for the suggestion. I was 100% sure we had it already, by I could find one! I only found this one - http://forums.wildapricot.com/forums/308932-wishlist/suggestions/8827180-event-manager-for-specific-events-only-with-limite
