Description
Just encountered an issue on the NYCDH site where the Event Tickets plugin was activated on the sub-site and it was able to bypass the main BuddyPress registration page.
The Events Tickets plugin has a RSVP module that will allow a user to RSVP for an event through a web form. This web form doesn't require a user to be authenticated and will create a new user in WordPress by default. It is possible to to allow only logged-in users to RSVP for an event, but this option must be enabled under "Events > Settings > Tickets" in the admin dashboard.
Will look to only allow logged-in users to RSVP for events with a code snippet.
