Custom role for event registrants?

    We are using Events Manager to register people for continuing education classes. Instead of automatically being a “Subscriber” I was wondering if I am able to create a custom role for the registrants? I am using User Role Editor and it works well for the various roles we have set for our website, and I was hoping that I could incorporate that into Events Manager to manage the registrants. Thank you.

    That should be possible. Are you using No-User Booking Mode?

    No, I did not select to use No-User Booking Mode, it didn’t sound like something we wanted to do. Perhaps I don’t have a complete understanding of this option. I’m just setting this up so I’m still learning all of the options and features.

    We wanted the people registering for a course to create an account, to be able to log back in to manage their registrations if need be, and numerous registrants will be returning for subsequent courses, so we wanted them to be able to log back in without having to enter their information again. The description reads: “When this mode is enabled, extra booking information about the person is stored alongside the booking record rather than as a WordPress user.” but I think that we want the extra booking/registration information to be associated with a user, not with the booking/registration record. We do not have anyone else other than registrants creating accounts on our system, so I guess it they could remain “subscribers” but I would rather have them designated as “Adult Education Registrants”. Thank you.

    hmm, did you mean enable EM to assign the user role per bookings?
