 * I have searched the WP plugin area as well as Google for a considerable amount
   of time looking for a plugin so I can start a webinar registration area. For 
   example, a visitor goes to my webinar page and registers with specific info for
   an upcoming webinar.
 * The only plugin that I found that may have had the capability is wp-eventmanager
   but it’s development has not continued and was not even stable on 2.2.
 * Any ideas on how I can make this happen would be greatly appreciated.

 * apparently nobody has done anything like this so far?
 * what a heck?
 * and I’d think it would be one of the most requested features…

 * why not just use a plugin like [http://www.deliciousdays.com/cforms-plugin](http://www.deliciousdays.com/cforms-plugin)
 * you dont need it to output anything on the front end, right? just a way for people
   to sign up for an event? with that plugin you can create very customized forms.
   i used it on a site for a registration form for a non-profit group. they wanted
   it to include a bunch of info from users, including a big group of check boxes
   etc.

 * good idea…
 * but I still needed a frontend output to display actual events with a URL to signup
   and such, so I had to modify **events-category** plugin a bit to work the way
   I needed.
 * for now, it’s cforms + events-category together that are taking care of this 
   issue…

 * I am currently in the alpha state of making such a plugin.
 * The company who needs this, want an easy admin where it is possible to set up
   an form, using UI. I will be using some jQuery drag’n’drop. Validation is a must.
   
   It will be possible to export to a .csv for easy use with Excel etc.
 * If you have any ideas, suggestions etc. I am open.
    As long I make it usable 
   for the company who is paying for it, I wont mind adding features.
 * _Ps. the company know this will be open-source.
    Pps. It will work in 2.5+

 * I’ll be more than happy to see such a plugin (as far as I know, this is gonna
   be the first one of this kind, and there were already quite a few requests)
 * I’d love to use it for website of department of my university to prepare a module
   for signing up for seminars: so my suggestion for features would be:
    – max limit
   of people for a particular event – possibility to set opening time for signing
   up to start
 * Thanks and keep us posted 🙂

 * I saw this as I was searching for a solid calendar. I don’t see this as being
   much more difficult than a link to a form for sign ups. The form plugin link 
   above has registration limits.
 * The challenging part has been to find the right calendar plugin. Some work, some
   don’t and some require external connections. I’m going to create a new post on
   this.

 * and what about an option for a person to sign out, is it possible? one would 
   have to get some kind of code/password, which would be used during signing out
   process…

 * What do you mean by sign out? They sign up for the event by filling out the form.
   Some level of human intervention maybe to make sure it is a real request.
 * You mean sign out while they are at the event?

 * I’m assuming that it means if they decide not to attend the event, they can de-
   register themselves?

 * yep! exactly – sorry for the confusion, my english is not good enough sometimes…
 * for my needs (simple page for singing up for a seminar) I’d need this option 
   for people to be able to de-register (before the event/seminar starts), and after
   a person de-registers his place would become free for another person

 * Well… you could use a combination of existing plugins etc.
    But my users is very
   dumb. So I have to keep it simple. I my self use cForms and I love it, but for
   this purpose, it just too advanced.
 * I’ve got an “Go ahead”, so make this plugin is a certainty.
    For now I have a
   very rough idea of how this is going to work.
 * I would really love to hear any input, features ideas etc.
 * 1. Keep It Simple Stupid
    2. Use of jQuery, to make the build of the form easy
   and fun. 3. TinyMCE integration, for easy publish of a single registration form.
   4. Validation 5. Export of attending people (.csv) 6. E-mail – Telling people
   what they signed up for and a link for “de-registering” 7. Theme-able + option
   to use css from WP theme. 8. Gettext localization (.po/.mo) 9. Option for advanced
   users to insert html, when building the formular. 10. Set “active period”, set
   max people attending.
 * Missing anything?
 * We are two that will be working on this and the deadline is in 2 weeks.

 * the list of features sounds superb for me, I cannot think of anything else (the
   idea with ‘de-registering’ link is simple and perfect, I dont know how I could
   have been thinking about some extra passwords for this process)
 * good luck with that! 🙂
