Pre Sale question

[Gregory Constant]

Hi I’m using a Plugin Called WCmarketplace Multi vendor plugin and I’m looking for a plugin that allows my vendors (already register in my site) to create their own events (front-end form submission) and dynamically store them in the calendar and show theme in the front end like a woocommerce product. It will be ideal if each vendor can display their events somewhere in their profile after being created… Is this something that Community Tickets or C. Events can do? Does it work well with WC marketplace? Is there a way to integrate theme?
Thanks for your nice response.

Hello Gregory,

Thanks for reaching out to us with your questions.

Community Events will allow users to submit events to your calendar without the Multi Vendor plugin, and the vendors (event owners) will have the ability to edit their events.

Community Tickets adds the ticketing functionality, so the event owners will also be able to sell tickets to the events. At the moment however, if a ticket is sold, then the money will go to your account and you will need to manage the re-distribution of the funds.

CE and CT did support Adaptive / Split payments by PayPal, however PayPal has discontinued that service and is not accepting new registrations any more. We are in the process of looking for an alternative solution for that.

I’m not sure how all this can tie into the Multi Vendor plugin. A note: an event by itself will not be a product, it will not be available for sale. You do need tickets for that.

Or you can have custom development done, which then will automatically create a product if a vendor creates an event.

As for the tickets, when they are created then a WooCommerce product is also created automatically. This product is hidden by default, so it will not show up in the catalog under WooCommerce products, but it is possible to manually change that. I suppose with a snippet it can be achieved that they are not hidden by default.

My guess is this could work with the Multi Vendor plugin.

If you want to give this a try, then possibly this article will be of use to you as well:

Let me know if you have any further questions.

Cheers,
Andras
