How to add advanced fields to the booking checkout form?

Introducing the latest update to EventPrime – the Advanced Checkout Fields extension! This new feature allows event organizers with the ability to create an additional set of diverse and dynamic fields on their checkout page in the frontend. Now, you can go beyond the standard input fields and provide your more ways to collect attendee data.

With the Advanced Checkout Fields extension, you can now easily add four different types of fields to your event checkout form. These are:

  1. Radio Button: Create a set of options where attendees can select a single choice from a list. Ideal for questions like “How did you hear about this event?” or “Preferred time slot.”
  2. Checkbox: Enable multiple selections for specific preferences or choices. Utilize checkboxes for options like “Meal Type” or “Select the workshops you wish to attend.”
  3. Dropdown Menu: Provide a compact and organized list of choices, conserving space while offering various options. Use dropdown menus for selections like “Country of Residence” or “Proficiency Level.”
  4. Text Area: Allow attendees to provide detailed information or comments. Utilize text areas for collecting feedback, special requests, or additional comments during event booking.
