Getting Merge Search to Work: Waitlist with Plus-ones

I have a event registration system, and I just added the ability for people to add plus-ones to their registration.

The way I’m handling it is that it also creates a registration data type(like a normal registration), but tags it as a plus-one, and also adds the plus-one_of_registration to link any plus-ones back to the main person’s registration.

In the registration list, I use nested repeating groups, so the first one only shows the non-plus-ones, and then nested in each cell is a repeating group to show any plus-ones attached to it.

I’m handeling any plus-ones as waitlisted until I approve it, so I’m trying to get them to show up in the waitlist section when that toggle is clicked.

I’m trying to have it add any main registrations that are waitlisted, and merge it with a list of any registrations that hasplus-one registrations under it. I thought if I did a search for all these plus-ones, and added all the registrations of that it would show them all, but nothing is showing up.

I’m wondering if it has to do with the (), but anytime I try and split up the merge it does not seem to want to let me. Any ideas?


Nevermind, I think I figured it out. I missed checking the ignore empty constraints.
