Fairly new in working with event registration. Looking at setting up registration for Homecoming with multiple events over several days. Would like the constituent to be able to choose which events they would like to attend and then only register for those specific events. Any suggestions?

    Depending on how you wish to track the events in RE (capacity per event choice, for example), you can either set them up as separate events grouped under one overarching Homecoming event for reporting purposes or else within one event as different pricing options.


    You can then build out the event registration form with multiple events or a single event.  The display online would vary based on that decision - but it would all still be within one event reg form in BBNC.

    For complex events like that, we generally have each event be a different RE event, but make them all the same event group. So to use Homecoming as the example, I would probably make an event group "Homecoming", and have events such as "Rally", "Dance", "Social", etc. Each of the indivdual events would have an event group of "Homecoming".


    When setting up queries to select the events, you can pick Event Group to get everything, or Event to get a single event.
