We have a charity paddling / canoe event where we would like a team of people (around 6) to be able to use "register multiple participants" option, and use a price set to cater for various options, but only charge once for the canoe registration as it is shared between the team members. What I have done can be seen here:
https://www.paddleforlife.org.au/civicrm/event/register?id=2&reset=1

With the price set all options are repeated for each registrant but we were hoping to be able to have the  "Registration Fee" show only once.

Does anybody have any suggestions for this?

Thanks.

I am new to CiviCrm and have integrated it with a Joomla site.  This topic is what I need to accomplish, so rather than start a new topic I figured I would just post here.

I have multiple registrations on, so you can select the number of people you are registering.  I have a price set established and in it is a $2500 sponsorship that includes four golfers, a $1750 sponsorship that includes two golfers, as well as numerous other options.  I would like to have a way that when someone selects either of these sponsorship checkboxs, that it selects either four or two registrations, then the next three or one registration pages only have the profile info needed and not any pricing.

It sounds like the hook option is the same thing I need to do to.  I have read how to create the appropriate php file, however, I am having difficulty figuring out what the actual hook language code would be to make this happen.  Any assistance would be greatly appreciated as I need to get this live by March 1st.  Thanks in advance for any advise and examples.

Thanks Lobo,

I have printed the book you referenced (all 302 pages), but I am not sure where to find the civitest.module.sample, but did find some examples on the web.  Is the civitest.module.sample included in the CiviCRM-Joomla install zip?

I can't seem to find a similar solution although I think I understand what I need to do with the function:

1. add a $0 amount field.  Do I do this in the price set or do I use something like:
   $form->addElement(
   'hidden', 'Platinum Greens Fee', 0,
   array('id'=>'Platinum Greens Fee')
 );

2. for the main register from, use buildAmount hook to hide the $0 field and set the number of registrations to either four or two depending on which sponsorship they check

3. for the next three or one participants, set the $0 as default and hide the price set

I would most appreciate it is someone could give my the general code layout so I can get an idea where to start.  I am comfortable with php code (it is a hobby not a profession), but I just can't seem to grasp what to do with this hook.

Again, thanks in advance for any assistance.

Lobo, thank again.  I will review this and see what trouble I can get in too.

Hello,

I am trying to do something similar on a website for a golf tournament sign up.  What we need to have is 4 pricing levels:

Level 1 - $400 - 4 participants (signed up by one user who will pay this and enter in the information for the multiple participants).
Level 2 - $300 - 4 participants (signed up by one user who will pay this).
Level 3 - $200 - 4 participants (signed up by one user who will pay this).
Level 4 - $100 - 1 participant (individual)

The problem I see right now, is that you cannot have a "group price" for 1 pricing option.  Is there anyway to have a group price where the person that selects "level 1" has to pay the full group price, regardless if they enter in the information for all participants?  For example for "level 1" I tried pricing each participant as $100, so for 4 participants it would add up to $400 at the end of registration, but the problem is that they can skip a participant and therefor it doesn't total to $400 for them.  We need them to pay the full group price, as they may not know all of their participants at the time of event registration.

Thanks!

Ok thanks for the reply.  I don't have the knowledge of Civicrm or time to program this right now, but if I find the time maybe I can setup a project to do this and learn the civicrm API and hooks.  I can see that Civicrm could use a lot of improvement on the price sets.
