    <p>Oh, thanks for your feedback!!! Yes, you are right, the message you
    saw – incorrect. I’ll ask our developers to change the message. The
    main thing you (and other users of CiviCRM/Events + QR code) need to
    know that you can activate this option “QR Code” for the event only
    once when creating the event. It wouldn’t be available later when you
    would like to edit event and etc. That was the main information that
    users need to know.  So, activating “QR Code” option for one event
    does not influence other events. At the same time, many events can use
    the “QR Code” option.</p>
    
    <p>Thanks, Maryana</p>

  <p>So, I guess they just have to correct their description.. but, it's nice to know that we will have the ability to us QR codes for multiple events at the same time!!</p>

Answers.Text: United I misunderstood you this is incorrect. I do not have https://github.com/progressivetech/net.ourpowerbase.qrcodecheckin extension and I have that message as well. (although qr codes aren't being sent, just a blank image that says qr code)

Answers.Text: Perhaps install the qr extension and see if blank image issue gets resolved. But according to your question that would support 1 event at a time. I am not sure if civimobile have integrated qrcheckin extension, but by the issue you have explained it sounds similar to what qr code readme says.

Answers.Text: It does also support one extension. Civimobile does not generate qr codes for some reason (it says no image or unsupported type). Qr checkin extension does work though.

Body: <p>Can anybody tell me what this means? When creating a new event with the new release of City Mobile API, it gives you the option to turn on QR code generation for that event. However, it has a strange warning note that's really confusing, it reads like this:</p>
  
  <p>When generating QR Code tokens, use this Event
  If enabled, the QR Code for this event will be used (you can only have one event enabled at a time, enabling this event will disable all other events).</p>

  <p>When I read this, it sounds like if I enable QR code generation for one event all of my other events will also be disabled (is that QR code generation disabled, or the event itself will be disabled and not active).  </p>
  
  <p>I guess I'm just really confused by this new feature and there isn't any documentation talking about its behavior. It would seem strange to me that you can only have one event at a time generating QR codes considering most organizations would have multiple events scheduled and open for registration at one time.</p>
  
  <p>Anyone have any thoughts on this?</p>

  Can anybody tell me what this means? When creating a new event with the new release of City Mobile API, it gives you the option to turn on QR code generation for that event. However, it has a strange warning note that's really confusing, it reads like this:
  
  When generating QR Code tokens, use this Event
  If enabled, the QR Code for this event will be used (you can only have one event enabled at a time, enabling this event will disable all other events).
  
  ![enter image description here](https://i.sstatic.net/UZt2j.png)
  
  When I read this, it sounds like if I enable QR code generation for one event all of my other events will also be disabled (is that QR code generation disabled, or the event itself will be disabled and not active).
  
  I guess I'm just really confused by this new feature and there isn't any documentation talking about its behavior. It would seem strange to me that you can only have one event at a time generating QR codes considering most organizations would have multiple events scheduled and open for registration at one time.
  
  Anyone have any thoughts on this?
