Clarify Registration Button Text for Invite Links That Bypass Waitlist

When a waitlist is active, and a race director sends an invite link configured to bypass capacity or the waitlist, the registration button still appears in red and says “Waitlist”—even though the runner is being placed directly into the entrants list.

This creates confusion for invited participants, who may hesitate or believe they’re being added to the waitlist.

Feature Request:

When an invite link is configured to bypass the waitlist, the registration button should display clear, distinct text (e.g., “Special Invitation” or “Direct Entry”)

Consider updating the button color or styling to further distinguish it from standard waitlist messaging

This would reduce participant confusion and improve the experience for invited runners.
