I'd like to add a couple of staff members to a full session on the back end - any ideas?

Hi Sarah,

Yes, this is possible! Planner-side (backend) registration can override session capacity. Please follow the steps below to add your staff members to the full session:

• Go to Attendees > Attendee List.
• For each staff member:
  • If they're already registered:
    
    • Click their name > Modify Registration.
  • If they're not registered yet:
    
    • Click Add > Register and complete the wizard until you reach Sessions.
• On the Sessions step, select the full session you want them in.
  
  • Even if it shows as Full, planner‑side registration will still let you add it; this action overrides the session capacity for that attendee.
• Complete the registration/modify flow and Submit.
