Limit event tickets to one per user

[Vuk]

Hi guys,

Is there any way (configuration, code snippet, anything) to limit number of tickets per user to 1 per event?

The idea is to allow only one ticket (application) per user since these events are free, and one can only apply for himself.

Also, is there a way to pre fill user data (first and last name, email) if they are logged in ? (take a look at an attachment if you don’t know what i mean)

Thanks a lot
Hope to hear from you soon

Hi, Vuk. Check this out:

For filling the logged-in user’s info, I believe this is coming soon (week or two). I’ll put this thread on the list to be notified once this functionality gets released.

Hi,

Thanks a lot for the first code snippet – works like charm. 😀

Looking forward to the other feature with pre filled user data 😀

Thanks
Vuk

Just for fun 😉
Tickets produce hidden product.
You can just set in “Inventory” property “Sold individually” to Yes, and you can have ability to sell only one ticket.
Thanks to basic support for products in ticket case.

Thanks for that tip, Dmitry.

Here’s a code snippet using Dmitry’s suggestion, which may be preferable:

However, it only restricts to the checkout, not within a user’s account.

But I don’t know, this solution working without any coding (snippet). Just as is. And it works not only on check out, but also when you tries to add into cart.

Right, Dmitry… just that this snippet makes it so all WooCommerce tickets act as if that box is checked.

Probably I do something wrong, but I have it works 😉 without coding.
I have installed (Community Event, Community Tickets, Event Tickets and Event Tickets Plus).
More over, I install dependencies plugin, which enable create dependence between products, and it works with tickets too. I can sell ticket only I have the other product (I didn’t check dependencies between two tickets, but I think it will work too).
As I think, product validation with this field and other plugins is exists as feature in one of that plugin.
If you want to see, I can give you link to my test site and I can describe (and preconfigure some tickets in English) how I set and what you get.

[Cliff]

The code snippet makes it so you don’t have to manually check the box in WooCommerce product settings for each past and newly-created ticket.

Thanks for your feedback. I’ll close this thread now since the original poster, Vuk, is taken care of.

Have a great weekend.
