Does 6.53/Events 2.0 offer maximum capacity for event registration?

Hey Jennifer,



On the new event form it's automatic. So if we set a capacity in The Raiser's Edge, NetCommunity will always respect that capacity setting.



The thing it won't do is "hold" the tickets in a cart. So you only have 1 ticket left and two people try to buy that one ticket at the same time, but are on different computers, it can be timed so that both go through. Now if one of those people tries to buy two tickets it won't work because you only have one left. This doesn't effect most people, but it can if the event is large, popular, or has only a short window to buy tickets. I hope that makes sense!



Thanks,


Karen

Wait - so which response is correct? Capacity doesn't work in the new event registration form?

As a work-around, I set the publishing date for the registration form to end immediately. That way, I could keep the page open, with basic information about our event that is happening tonight, but registration is not an option.
