I'm setting up a new event and want to offer pricing of the form: 120 for the first participant, 90 for each additional participant registered at the same time. Trying to work out how to set this up effectively. A price set? If so, what's the approach?

Thanks

graham - did you get this working via the hook? care to share?

Hi--

We did something similar without using hooks. We used PriceSets for our registration fees. We setup a radio control for our registration with two items: One for the first participant and another for additional participants. Make sure the radio control is required but that neither is the default. Then we created two custom templates by modifying the ones used for online registration: Register.tpl and AdditionalParticipant.tpl. On the Register.tpl we hide the 'additional participant' item and on the AdditionalParticipant.tpl we hide the 'first participant' item. The steps to hide controls are outlined at:

Ideally, we would like to make sure the visible radio option is selected. To select the visible radio use:

$("#CIVICRM_QFID_999_9").prop("checked",true);

in each template where '999_9' is unique 'id' of the radio button of the item you wish to be selected.
