Fishing permits

[Daniel Persson]

Hello,

I would like to make a site with Woocommerce where I sell fishing permits. So its kind of like a ticket, but no pre set dates. I need the customer to be able to enter atleast name and a free of choice date when buying the product. And then be able to download a printable permit/ticket with the chosen name and date on it,

Is this something I can achieve with your plugin?

Thanks,
Daniel

Hi, Daniel.

Event Tickets Plus (ET+) is our paid add-on plugin that upgrades the functionality of our free Event Tickets (ET) plugin.

Event Tickets Plus enables you to sell tickets via one of our supported eCommerce platforms. The free plugin only enables free RSVP-type tickets.

You can view our roundup/comparison of all the eCommerce plugins ET+ supports.

Our plugin uses your eCommerce plugin of choice, but your eCommerce plugin isn’t displayed for shopping pages. Please reference our Making Tickets KB article (screenshots are from an install using WooCommerce) for an idea how to create tickets for an event.

Site visitors would purchase tickets from each event’s single page/view (e.g. http://wpshindig.com/event/events-tickets-demo/) — if there is an RSVP to submit or ticket to purchase. Or you can add tickets to any other post type, like a Post, Page, or custom post type post.

The order confirmation email will include a QR code that can be scanned to “check in” someone at the door at the time of the event. It could be displayed on their mobile device or they could print it like any other email. You can read more at Tickets: Managing your orders and attendees.

You could also Display a List of Attendee’s Events.

If your tickets will be free, you don’t need QR code check-in, and you don’t need to collect additional information other than name and email address, you likely could just use the free/core Event Tickets plugin.

Specific to fishing licenses, you’d need to create a ticket and that requires start/end dates (when the ticket is allowed to be sold), but you could set that far in the future or January 1 – December 31.

The tickets get emailed, and you can override that layout/content by following our Themer’s Guide (our “how-to” walk-through video may prove helpful) for this file: /wp-content/plugins/event-tickets/src/views/tickets/email.php

You could also use our free PDF Tickets extension, which converts the email output to a PDF and then attaches that PDF to the email that gets sent. Basically, you print the email out to PDF for them and attach it.

Last but not least, we have Bundles and a pretty great Refund Policy so you can buy one or many of our add-ons and thoroughly test them.

I hope this info helps. Let me know if you have any follow-up questions.

Hey there! This thread has been pretty quiet for the last three weeks, so we’re going to go ahead and close it to avoid confusion with other topics. If you’re still looking for help with this, please do open a new thread, reference this one and we’d be more than happy to continue the conversation over there.

Thanks so much!
