About Sugar Calendar
Events can finally ask attendees a question at the moment they sign up.
Registration Forms arrive as a tab on the event itself: a small builder with five field types — short text, long text, multiple choice, checkboxes and dropdown — each markable as required, asked at ticket checkout or on the RSVP form, with the answer landing on the attendee's record beside their name and ticket. The post is explicit that this collapses two separate requests, custom fields on checkout and custom fields on RSVP, into one feature. It follows a run of releases that added attendee email, Elementor page design, per-event ticket pricing and Zoom links.
