Automatically activating second batch tickets

[Benjamin Thomas]

Hi,

Is there any way we can configure Event Tickets to automatically activate second batch tickets only after the first batch of tickets run out i.e. the stock of first batch (early bird) tickets goes down to 0?

If you look at the following event, you’ll notice that the second batch of tickets i.e. ‘3 day ticket (15th, 16th & 17th April) – Second batch €30.00’ is already visible, which is not ideal since the first batch of tickets haven’t sold out yet.

Currently, we work around this by setting a future start date and keep an eye on the number of tickets sold, to manually change the start date of this particular ticket to show it on the front-end once the early bird tickets sell out. Again, this is not ideal because we cannot monitor the number of tickets sold 24/7.

Is there any way to automate this?

Kind regards,

Ben

Hey Benjamin,

Thank you for your question! Unfortunately, this is not possible:

The only thing our plugins provide is automatic activation of ticket sales based on date—like, for example, Ticket Type A start selling on April 15 at 5pm, then Ticket Type B starts selling on April 20 at noon.

There aren’t other automatic ticket-sale activation or deactivation options at this time, unfortunately. 🙁

Sorry to disappoint!

Sincerely,
George

ok thanks – is this in the pipeline?

It is not in the pipeline at this time—to vocalize your desire for this feature, though, we would love to hear about it in more detail! Post any ideas like this on our “UserVoice” page, where the idea can be “voted on” by other users and such → http://tribe.uservoice.com

We often incorporate ideas from this page into our plugins, so post there and this could end up in our pipeline.

Cheers!
George
