Custom Additional Fields for Tickets in Event Campaigns
As a small community foundation, we have a fund holder who has the local artistic community creating about two dozen posters to promote freedom of expression. They'll be "sold" (given as premiums) for a donation to a C-Suite campaign. Each poster design is offered as one ticket.
We are running into the limitations of the C-Suite Ticket object here. We need each ticket to be able to add CUSTOM ADDITIONAL FIELDS similar to the way the Note field works at present. We would want Shipping Address for fulfillment on each item.
I know there are some order options that we can use for this purpose - since you will soon be able to indicate a "vegetarian/non-veg" or "adult/child" option on each ticket, we might use this for "Framed/Unframed" as an option.
We'd imagine that ALL those data points might be available to the template for the donor receipt. Also we'd like multiple orders of the same item (4 copies of the same poster) to appear on the receipt as such, rather than generating four unique PDFs (the current behavior for multi tickets).
Lastly, I'd like the Fund Holder to be able to login to the Portal and trigger some kind of report on the granular tickets with detail, that contributed to their fund. At present the whole order is rolled up into a single donation amount.
I know this might not be ready till NEXT Thanksgiving, but I"m putting it out there now so that others who could use it might chime in.

Just keeping this alive. It's still needed every day.
Another fund holder just started offering t-shirts in honor of donations. They need to accept shirt-size and shirt-color as custom fields. The data needs to roll up into reports and be spat out in receipts. Shipping options AND POSTAL DELIVERY ADDRESSES.

We need custom fields for registration for certain local events, for example events that parents might be registering children for, requiring fields for child's name, age, school, etc.

it would be critical that custom fields have the option to be external facing and that they are sequenced in the workflow BEFORE the transaction is completed - the current additional request function does not show up before checkout and users NEVER complete the questions

It would be so helpful if campaigns could support custom fields. For example, for an event, attendees could add a note about that event. In alumni events, grads could enter their grad year (new alums attending that wouldn't be in the system yet). Or please have someone contact me about this event...or I am handicap and need ....
