How many seats available?

[Keith]

I want community events to be added and to show how many available spots are available. No tickets. It is a free event in a home so would like something like 8 spots available then when someone registers the event will update to say 7 of 8 spots remaining. Is this possible?

Hi Keith,

Thanks for checking out our plugins!

Community Events will let users submit events from the front end of your site, and with Community Tickets, they will also be able to create RSVPs on their events and set a capacity for each RSVP. Events created this way are the same as events created on the back end and will be displayed in the same way – so, your remaining spots will show up automatically by default. You can test out how this looks with The Events Calendar (which is our free events plugin that is required to use Community Events) and Event Tickets (which adds the RSVP functionality) in a testing site.

If you don’t want to handle event registration at all within the site (and just display the number of spots remaining on the front end), then you could use an additional field (a feature of Events Calendar Pro) to display this on the front end, or enter it into the event description. You would need to manually update this however.

We do offer full refunds within 30 days of purchase, so if you’d like to take Community Events, Community Tickets, or any of our other premium add-ons for a test run, feel free to do so! Please let me know if you have any additional questions.

Thanks,

Jennifer
