Good evening Dave and welcome to the Events Calendar forum!
Thank you for your interest in our products.
We’ll be glad to answer your question.
Is this possible and if so, do I need the tickets module or other kind of add-on? Thanks!
Yes, absolutely.
In order to sell tickets, you will need:
- Our Event Tickets free plugin https://theeventscalendar.com/product/wordpress-event-tickets/
- Our Event Tickets Plus premium add-0n https://theeventscalendar.com/product/wordpress-event-tickets-plus/
Once that is done, you will need to setup the e-commerce plugin of your choice ( WooCommerce being the most popular )
From there, you will need:
- Another plugin that lets you manage discounts based on user role (if your members have a special WordPress user role). E.g.: https://wordpress.org/plugins/woocommerce-role-based-price/
- A discount code (known only to your members) requires no extra plugin, it can be added directly within your e-commerce plugin.
Let me know if that helps.
Have a great day!
Geoff B.
