Allow 0-seats cannot be deactivated

[Anonymous]

Hi Franky,

The “allow 0-seats for attendance-like events again” change in 1.7.6 is messing up my system.

Here is a typical booking page:
http://cfd.direct/openfoam-training/berlin

It uses multibooking because there are 2 events. Each event is “attendance only”, with a No/Yes dropdown.

Even when I have set “Min number of spaces to book” set to 1, if a booking is made for one of the events only, both events are booked, one with 0 seats, one with 1 seat.

How do I revert to the old behaviour where an event is simply not booked if it is not selected?

(I do not know if this is bug, but I could not find a setting / switch for this)

Thanks,

Chris

Although I understand your problem, the attendance-feature works as intended (to indicate whether or not you’ll be present for a certain event).
But, by using this version of eme_rsvp.php:
https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/events-made-easy/trunk/eme_rsvp.php?rev=1536510&format=txt

for multibooking && attendance events, the empty seats won’t get stored unless you use the (now documented …) option register_empty_seats=1 (default=0) for the shortcode eme_add_multibooking_form. This changes the default behavior, but I think it is more logical …

I tested the change to eme_rsvp.php and it worked fine – as you intended, not storing the empty seats when defaulting to register_empty_seats=0.

Thanks, that’s an effective solution that provides options for different user needs.
