Confused about necessary plugins

[Johan]

Hi,

I want to list events on a new marketplace like website. This is the idea:
A customer is able to sign-up for a monthly fee;
The customer is then able to add events to the site using front-end editing;
The customer is able to add tickets to the event;
The customer is able to sell the tickets to the event. For each sale, a commission is paid to the admin of the site;
A visitor is able to order one or more tickets to one or more events;

I’m a bit confused which plugins I need for this. I see wooCommerce and Easy Digital Downloads.
Community tickets seems for wooCommerce only? Has EDD similar functionality so you’re not offering a plugin for that? What solution do you suggest (wooCommerce or EDD)?

Are there any (nicely designed) themes that support the community tickets feature?

Regards,

Johan

Hello Johan and thanks for getting in touch.

That’s a great idea for a site!

It sounds like these would be the plugins you’re looking for:

• The Events Calendar (our core plugin)
• Community Events (allows users to create events on the front end of the site)
• WooCommerce Tickets (allows you to create and sell tickets for events)
• Community Tickets (extends the ticket functionality to Community Events so users can create tickets for the events they submit)

And, of course, you will want WooCommerce itself since it provides the eCommerce engine for WordPress.

Does this help? Please let me know and I’d be happy to answer any other questions as best I can. 🙂

Cheers,
Geoff
