  • 1.  Is there a way to prevent an attendee from choosing more than one session?

    We're using flex for our events.  Is there a way to prevent an attendee from choosing more than 1 session?  We have two training sessions.  They are the same and we just need attendees to choose between the two, but I would like to prevent them from choosing both by mistake.  Thanks!

    Hello @Kim Abbott,

    The easiest way to achieve the outcome you are looking for is put both sessions into a session group. When in the site designer and place the session widget onto a page by default, the session setting is set to not "Allow registrants to select sessions that overlap".  For both the session and session group you can add description, instructions, and style on the page. 

    Here is a link to one of the articles about session groups

    Hopefully that gets you going in the right direction.
