Adding a Custom Field to an Event Booking Form
When creating an event, you may have fields you want the customer to tick in order to confirm details.
For example, you may want a custom field, which allows the user to tick if they are allergic to dogs.
These fields enable you as the host to cater for multiple choices, or ask for multiple opinions.
Creating these fields is easy and quick. Read further to discover how.
