Allow RSVP until X days after event starts

[TimB111]

I have events for booking courses that run for between 2 and 4 months. Some people join late, after the course has started, and I want to restrict that to only allow booking up to 14 days after a course has started.

When editing an event, in the RSVP tab, it's only possible to restrict RSVPs to X days BEFORE and event starts/ends. Is it possible to allow X days (and also Y hours) AFTER an event starts?

I think I allow negative numbers: -1 day = 1 day after the event started etc ...

Thanks, I did a brief test last night but it didn't appear to work as expected. I created a test event with RSVP until 0 days -1 hours before event starts, but 1.5 hours after the event started it was still possible to RSVP. I'll do another test and will report back.

Ok it works fine with negative numbers.

I have a test site and a live site, and the problem in the previous test was that on the test site the server time was off by an hour. Once corrected it worked as expected.
