Limit who can register for events

[Kenna]

Is there any way to limit ticket purchases to certain people? In other words, can I make an event exclusive?

Hey @Kenna,

You unfortunately cannot do this at this time unless you were to write some extensive custom code 🙁

We cannot help with custom coding (check out the “Product Support” section of this page for more information → http://theeventscalendar.com/terms). However, can you describe a bit more about who the “certain people” would be in your case?

Based on your use case, I will try to recommend some custom code if possible! 🙂

1. For example, is this as simple a distinction as non-registered users will not be able to see the ticket form and buy tickets, but users who have accounts on your site can buy tickets for events?

2. Also, is this a universal “limitation” for all of the events on your site? Or will only certain events be “exclusive” in this way?

Thank you,
George

Thanks for the quick and thorough response! Maybe a little more background will help. I run a dog training program, and want to make certain classes only available to dogs who have passed the lower level classes (think basic and advanced obedience, etc.). What would your recommendation be to enable that? I currently have Woocommerce as my payment platform.

Hey @Kenna,

Thanks for the elaboration here. What you describe is actually a bit more complicated than I assumed, and this sort of “tiered access” system is not possible with our plugins at this time 🙁

I’m sorry about this!

Sincerely,
George

Ok thanks for the answer! I’ll see what I can come up with.

Sounds good, @Kenna! I’ll close up this thread for now, but open a new thread any time if you’re curious about any other issues.

I wish you the best of luck with your project 🙂

Sincerely,
George
