TOPIC: Custom booking fields in the participant list

I've spent a lot of time looking through the documentation and forums and am struggling to find information about how to add custom fields to the participant list. I have a field called "school_setting_name" but when I insert it into the participant list it doesn't change to the date that is in the field - it just displays school_setting_name. I have found a forum post that mentions using MAT_BOOKING_CUSTOM1. Are these system variables to describe the custom fields that I've created?

I'm keen to understand the syntax for pulling custom information from the database into the sign in sheets and emails

Hi Mark,

is it a event specific or global bookingfield?

Event specific -> MAT_BOOKING_CUSTOM1
global -> MAT_BOOKING_FIELDNAME so MAT_BOOKING_SCHOOL_SETTING_NAME

We have a some helpfull tutorial videos showing how to setup bookingfields and how to use them in templates: www.youtube.com/user/compojoom

Best regards,

Yves

Hi Yves
It's a global one. Thanks for the link I'll have a look at the tutorial.
Best wishes
