Is anyone else frustrated with the number of things that are still not in Flex that were in Classic?

Today, found that Flex does not allow to Register additional group members after the initial registration is complete.  In Classic it was as simple as a Drop Down from Registration (where Modify Registration, Switch Registration Type, Substitute Registrant or Unregister still currently is) - Add Group Member.  

Second thing I find frustrating is Quantity Items - only Optional Items are available.  I've made it work using optional items, but it's not as robust. 

Third thing, there is still no option to add a table to the website.  Currently creating a table outside of CVent, then using the snip tool to make an image file (png).  with every change have to create a new image file, rather than just being able to update the table. 

I've put in enhancement requests for these items, but not sure how long it will take them to update the software. 

What other items are others finding that still don't work in Flex that were in Classic??

Hi Angie,

Here are some solutions to help.

Invitees can add Group members post registration. The Registration Summary Widget on the Confirmation page has a button 'Add Group Member' by default if Group registration is enabled for the path in question.

In addition to Quantity items, we can create Membership as well as Donation Items in Flex.

Regarding tables, they can split the number of columns in the section widget and use individual text widgets as cells for a table.

Apart from this, we have the code widget available as well which can be used to create custom tables using HTML.
