How about a one-click-button-to-RSVP, which will set your number of guests to 0. Then it'll say "You're coming to this event :) [ I'm bringing guests ] [ I'm not coming :( ]". Where "[ this ]" is a button. Clicking on 'I'm bring guests' will allow you to add extra guests. If you are bringing guests this means 2 button presses.
I suggest adding the smilie faces to the text to encourage positive happy emotions for coming to events (since we all want to encourage as many people as possible to come). I also suggest a big gap before "I'm not coming" to prevent accidental button clicks (cf. Fitt's Law). -- Signing up for an event is too long and non-obvious https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/600134 You received this bug notification because you are a member of loco- directory-dev, which is the registrant for loco-directory. Status in LoCo Directory: Triaged Bug description: Signing up for an event is too long and non-obvious. Currently after going to an event page, you have to click on a 'Register for this event' link (not the best wording, how about a call to action "I'm coming!"), then go to another page and change your 'attending status' (which is a overtly formal and strange way to word that you're going to an event), and the options are "attending", "might be attending", "not attending". Saying "My attending status is attending" is a convolunted and unfriendly way to say "I'm coming". It requires extra mental effort on the users part to figure out that they have said "I'm coming". Also, in order to say that you're not coming, you need to click on the link for 'register for this event', which one would assume is only used for registering for an event. I suggest something more like Facebook's event's pages. At an event page, there should be a link/button that says "I'm coming". Clicking it will sign the user up to the event. There should be no interstital page to choose your attendance status. As well as a "I'm coming" button/link, it should have a "I might attend" and "I'm not going"button/links with similar functionality. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~loco-directory-dev Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~loco-directory-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
