Ok, so I read in another forum that this issue has been "resolved." The solution was to use a button in the copy of the event description.
Here's my work around:
- Create an advanced event
- Create registration type for a ticket that no one can actually book
(this is the tricky part. I had already built a member level for only association staff so I used that as the only available registration/ticket type for the event because I know that no other members could book it that ticket through the internal link)
- Set that registration/ticket type to be "hidden" if unavailable (that way the internal registration button doesn't even show up on the event)
- Create a button in the event description field (images work or text works) that links to the external ticketing site.
- Set "visible to" (this can be public or restricted to specific membership levels/groups if the event is members only)
- Enable the event
- Check it out in public view to make sure it looks and functions properly
- DoneUsers should now be able to see your event in the event/page calendar, and the only option for booking tickets would be through the external button link you've created in the event description. This works best if you try and make the button look like the system generated buttons for your other events (this varies depending on your site template), but even if it doesn't match exactly it should work as long as it's obvious.
Hope this helps!
HOWEVER: This would be much easier if Wild Apricot would just allow us to override their internal registration link with an external ticketing link as suggested in the OP.

You can accomplish this using membership fields.
Current behavior you can create a membership field that is restricted to a certain membership type, and you can make that field required.
The problem is you'd have to create a different one for each membership type which is really sort of the point. BUT Membership fields don't show up in some of the modules such as event registration.

It would be REALLY nice to have this feature for both the app and desktop applications. As mentioned the reader only works with the Affinipay Mobile App (not desktop). At our events we typically have a laptop set up at registration, so it would be nice to have the reader work with the WA website or at least a desktop app if that's possible.
