Major Features:

- Registration Emails: Emails may be sent to the registrant & attendees based on payment type and the level registered. Unlimited number of emails may be designed based on various conditions. This change is NOT backward compatible and as such upgrade is not recommended for active events unless planned. The "Registration Emails" tab replaces the emails that were part of the "Messages" tab and no longer require addition of tickets or name badges. [read more]
- Event Listing Sites: Listing pages may be set up with registration sites instead of the event. Each site may have different levels and sites from the same event may be listed in the listing site.
- Attendee Designation/Role: An additional parameter set for each attendee during registration. Levels with multiple included registrations (e.g. include 10 tickets) may name each attendee position (e.g. Table captain, Team Leader, etc.) showing the label on the registration form. Positions will be saved in the report and in the attendee record. [read more]
- Dynamic Coupon Code in URL: Coupon code(s) may be passed through the URL. The coupon code will automatically apply once the conditions of the coupon code are met. E.g. addition of "&CC=abc;def;ghe" for coupon codes abc, def and ghe. Multiple coupon codes may be separated by semicolon.
- Inclusion of Coupon Code in URL for individual events listed in the event listing sites.
- Tracker: Trackers may be added to the end of the event page URL by adding &trk=xyz to the end of the URL, where xyz is a free text used for tracking the transaction. Possible use case is sending the link to different mailing lists and tracking each mailing list's response. [read more]

- No inventory check if "Registration Timeout" is set to 0. By not monitoring inventory no cookies will be used and iframe in Safari & Opera will work.
- Event "End Date" is no longer checked against level end date making it easier to stop registration without having to change the end date of each level.
- Discount Plans: Registration Form Label > the name as it appears next to the coupon code. In the previous releases the label was fixed as "Coupon Code". It may be customized using this field.
- Box Office: Event start & end date will no longer apply to the box office. Box Office may be used at any time, before start or after end date, for registration.

- Removal of the "Published Date" from the event basic tab. Publish date will no longer be used as it is now built into the overall behavior of various date fields.
- Removal of "Public Site URL" for each event. A single site is used for all events. The "Public Site URL" is set up in the Default Settings tab and used by all events. Existing events will continue to use the set URL but all new events will use the default URL as their base.
- Change of the registration form labels showing the attendee role / designation to the "Next" button. The button will now show: "AddTable Captain" if the role is labeled as "Table Captain".
- Addition of "Browser Tab Title" for all registration & listing sites. The additional field helps with customizing the tab name for each registration site.

The release has been tested extensively with the following limits for an event. The listed counts are not necessarily the limits of the application but the extend that we have tested the Salesforce's limits.
- Tickets included increasing to 25 from 12
- Levels: 200
- Custom Questions: 2500
- Mapped Contact Fields: 2500
- Tickets Included per level: 25
- Tickets per registration: 100
- Total attendees for a single event: 60,000
- Registrant & attendee emails: The post-installation script creates an email for the "Registrant" & "Attendee" based on the emails in the "Messages" section of the prior release. These emails are set to behave as the old release but are inactive by default. Each event needs to be reviewed and if the emails are to be sent they need to be set to active and saved, otherwise no emails will be sent out after the upgrade.
