How do I use custom fields in registration form?

[Anonymous]

I would like to try out something new for my garagesale events:

A user will be able to register, with these informations:
– Name
– Adress
And as custom fileds:
– the offer
– the time, they are at their location.

I set up the 2 custom fields as text and “eventfield” (idk if that is the correct notation?).
They show up, when setting up the event.
But they don’t do, when I try to register for the event.

Later I want to export those 4 fields, only to import them to GoogleMaps. This would (hopefully) fix my issue of multiple locations at one event.

Where is my mistake? How can I get those fields to show up in booking form?
Thank you so much for your support.

A field of type “event” allows you to add custom fields/input info to your events, but not bookings. The custom field needs to be of type “RSVP”. After that, make sure to use the custom field in your RSVP form too.

Hi Franky.

I understood, that there has to be an additen here:
class=’eme-rsvp-form’>
<tr><th scope=’row’>Nachname*:</th><td>#REQ_LASTNAME</td></tr>
<snip>
<tr><th scope=’row’>Angebot*:</th><td>#_OFFER</td></tr>

Thanks so far.
But I tried to make a new custom field, textarea, named “OFFER”, but in bookingform it won’t show up. Why, please?

Please read the doc: https://www.e-dynamics.be/wordpress/category/documentation/7-placeholders/7-6-registration-form-fields/
#_OFFER doesn’t exist, for your custom field it should be #_FIELD{OFFER}
