Is there any way to add extra purchase options to an OX Event registration form?

Lisa Church

I've created multiple registration forms and know that there's an option for a registrant to add an extra donation to their registration fees. Is there any way to add extra purchase options? We'd like to pre-sell additional items (i.e. extra bottle of wine for table, special wine glass, chance to win diamond ring, etc.)

 

I thought I could add these items to the "Select the price types to include" field. But found that this creates what appears to be an additional registrant and looks confusing for the person registering. It then adds a participant attribute for not only the registrant but also for each additional item for purchase. So in my situation, if I choose to purchase 2 tickets and extra bottles of wine, the form creates dinner options for each ticket purchase PLUS a dinner option for the bottle of wine, too.

 

I know that I can create a donation form but I'd like my event registrants to be able to select and pay for everything from the event registration form if possible. Any suggestions or thoughts?

There isn't another way right now. We ran into that issue as well, and it is something I hope they can fix. We have underwriting opportunities that aren't tied to registration that we would like to sell on the same form.
