Hello
I am interested to be able to allow people to list their events, in a personal dashboard, by themselves.
If I use event calendar and wootickets with woocommerce, am I still able to have the woocommerce option like client rating and commission on the sales?
Is possible to translate also in other languages?
Thank you
Sonia

Hey Sonia,

Thanks for reaching out to us about this. Unfortunately, it’s difficult to nail down exactly how you’ll be able to implement things on your site. The main reason why is because of what you wrote here:

I am interested to be able to allow people to list their events, in a personal dashboard, by themselves.

This feature is itself a customization that you will have to make, so your ability to integrate with your WooCommerce add-ons like Commissions and Client Ratings is almost entirely up to how you code that feature (or whoever codes it, if you hire someone for example).

The only place where The Events Calendar and its WooTickets add-on come into play, as far as I can think, would be the actual tickets themselves. However, each ticket made with WooTickets is a WooCommerce “Product”, which you can see in the admin of your site, so as long as your solution and those other WooCommerce add-ons work fine with WooCommerce “Products” (as they all essentially do, or should!), then The Events Calendar + WooTickets themselves should work fine with your customizations.

As for translating things, yes, you can translate either your entire site with WordPress’ default language settings (in Settings > General in your admin) or you can offer multiple languages on your site with the help of a translation plugin out there. There are many options, we do not officially support or recommend/endorse any one plugin but there are known problems at the moment with WPML.

I hope this information helps! Let us know if that’s the case or if you have any other questions or concerns 🙂

Cheers,
George

Hello George
Thanks for the explanation.
I saw one of your showcase websites, Culinary local, I saw that people can add their events in their dashboard ( I mean they do not see the admin WP panel), so this would be available only after a customisation, right?
In case I get community events, event calendar and ticket (as you told me in a previous reply they do not work toghether, so in order to allow people to add their events, I should manually add a selling ticket to this event, right?
Would you offer customisation, in case?
Thanks!

Hey Sonia,

Sorry for my confusion about your use of the word “Dashboard” – if you have Community Events installed on your site, then users can submit events from the front-end without being in the admin.

As for selling tickets for community-submitted events, users cannot create tickets of their own at this time – they can submit an event with an Event Cost field, but to actually create a ticket for sale you would then have to log in to your admin, go the event, and manually approve & create the ticket for sale and save the event.

Unfortunately, we could not help with any customizations.

If you haven’t already, I’d definitely recommend checking out the full Community Events product page – check out the video and screenshots and such for a better overview of how everything works. https://theeventscalendar.com/product/wordpress-community-events/

Let me know if this information helps! 🙂

I have with interest been reading the conversation above and now have the following question.

Do you plan to add the possibility to sell tickets for community-submitted events without admin having to manually add the tickets?

What I am looking for is a solution that allows users to submit their event and add one or more ticket types. The system should then automatically add a fixed fee or a percentage of the ticket price as a fee on every ticket sold.

The system should also bee able to send the ticket price to the event arranger and the fee to my company. Maby via PayPal adaptive mode or similar.

If your roadmap is including something like that – what is your ETA?

It looks as if Culinary local is doing just that!

Please advise.

Jesper

Hey Jesper,

You asked:

Yes! We are actively working on this. Unfortunately, there is no ETA to share at this time.

Since I’ve responded to Sonia’s questions here and yours as well Jesper, I will close up this particular thread, but if either of you have other questions, feel free to open a new thread at any time.

Thanks!
George
