Multiple Events

[Mark]

Do you allow multiple simultaneous events. I have a Conference one weekend and during the same week I have classes and workshops. Would this be able to be accomplished. My second question: If it is possible, can customers purchase tickets for both events and pay with one transaction. Third question: With the Conference, can I have a required ticket purchase (registration) before allowing for additional tickets to be purchased (classes)

Hi Mark,

Thanks for checking out our plugins!

Yes, you can create as many simultaneous events as you would like. You could create events for your conference, classes, and workshops during the same week; overlapping times will not cause a problem.

Customers can purchase tickets for multiple events in one transaction. Event Tickets Plus works with your eCommerce platform (such as WooCommerce) to handle transactions, so tickets are added to a cart and can then be purchased all together.

Requiring the purchase of one ticket in order to purchase another is not default functionality with Event Tickets Plus. You can require users to be logged in to purchase tickets, but from there you will need to get a little bit creative to get this to work. For example, you could add a custom field to the tickets for classes where users could enter their order number from the “registration” purchase, but validating that order number would require some code customizations (which we are currently not able to offer – check out or themer’s guide for information on customizing our plugins).

Another option would be to require approval for transactions before they are processed (through WooCommerce), but I believe this would mean you would have to approve every transaction, not just those for the class tickets.

Our refund policy entitles you to a full refund within 30 days of purchase, so feel free to test it out! I would also recommend downloading our free The Events Calendar and Event Tickets plugins to get a feel for how events work.

Sorry I don’t have a better answer for you on that last question, but please let me know if there’s anything else I can help you with!
