One event, 2 dates

[Mylene Bruneau]

Using The events calendar pro and Event tickets plus 4.1.3 + woocommerce
My client gives workshops.

So workshop 900 is happening on November 22, 2016. But it is almost sold out, so they want to add a second date, say February 17, 2017. How can I have 2 tickets, for one workshop ? Or do I have to manually add every workshop ? It’s time consuming, especially since there is no “duplicate event” button.

Also, workshops are often cancelled. How can I leave it in the system, but not have any tickets for sale ? My client does not want to delete that workshop, since they want to keep track of past sales/refunds/clients, etc.

And last: They would like those workshops to appear in a page where they are all there “on demand” i.e. with no dates. So far, I gave the workshops a date in last May, and modified a stylesheet to hide date, but it is very cumbersome. Any ideas ?

Hi Mylene.

Thanks for your interest in our plugin suite.

Each event requires its own tickets. You cannot have Event A with Ticket X and Event B with Ticket X. It would have to be Event B with Ticket Y.

Although third-party, not guaranteed or supported by us, this plugin exists that may help: https://wordpress.org/plugins/duplicate-tec-event/

If you create an event and want it hidden from public view, you could change its Status from Published to Pending Review or Draft.

We do not have a way to create events that are indeterminate date/time. I’d suggest a template override (see our Themer’s Guide) or simply CSS or JS like you’ve already done.

For example, you could have an Event Category of “non-specific date” (or “date is TBD” or something else) and if a single event is in that category, then your template override won’t display the event date but if it isn’t in that category, then it’ll display like normal.

I hope this helps. Please let me know if you have any follow-up questions on this topic.

Hey there! This thread has been pretty quiet for the last three weeks, so we’re going to go ahead and close it to avoid confusion with other topics.
