How to check if ticket is valid?

[ernst]

Hi Forum,

we plan to do a electro festival ticketing system, guests can get their ticket and pay with paypal. at the festival entrance, we want to check if guests have a valid ticket, for example with an excel list. at the moment i create an event with tickets, you can order them and get a ticket by mail. each ticket has a serial number and a security code. how can i export a list of sold tickets containing the ticket number and the security code?

thanks for your help!

Hey @ernst,

Sounds like a cool project! We have an “Attendees List” feature that sounds like it should suit your needs here quite well.

You can access the attendees list for an event from a few places. Here’s an example of where to access it from the default “Events” list in your admin → https://cloudup.com/cpahu_mjBxw

That leads to an Attendees List with a good amount of data, including the ability to export, print, and even email the list – which includes things like the security code, name of the buyer, all that. Though the only event I had readily on hand was a quickly-made event for testing purposes, and no tickets are actually sold yet, you’ll be able to see all the column headers for the data here → https://cloudup.com/ctUCHHPhk_B

Here’s a screenshot from our marketing page that shows what it looks like with some actual data → https://theeventscalendar.com/content/uploads/2014/08/4-woo-attendees.png

I hope that’s helpful! The digital attendees list itself plus the mailing and printing features should meet your needs – let us know if that’s not the case, or if you have any other questions, comments, or concerns 🙂
