Using Registration Sub-Categories
Sub-Categories in PheedLoop are a great way to provide further customization and organization to your registration process. Sub-Categories allows you to categorize your tickets if you are in a scenario where you have a lot of tickets and would like to group them more thoroughly. Additionally this grants you the ability to have add-ons for tickets, by requiring registrants to buy standard tickets so they will have access to these sub-categorized tickets.
1. Creating Sub-Categories
Quick Tip - if you have a subcategory - any ticket that does not have a sub-category will automatically show up under a tab called General.
- From the Event Dashboard, navigate Registration > Tickets
- Select a ticket you would like to add a sub-category to from the list
- Or above the ticket table, select Create.
- In the ticket editor form, navigate to Connections
- Under Sub-Categories, select Manage > Add Sub-Category
- Under Title, fill out the name of the sub-category
- Under Purchase Limit, enter the number of tickets purchasable within this subcategory per registration
- Toggle on the Purchase Required checkbox to make this ticket available if they purchase a regular ticket as well
- This would be required on, if you need a registrant to have at least one ticket from this subcategory to check out.
- Under Actions, select Save
