Pre-sale question about Tickets Plus

[Pat Andraka]

Good Morning,

I have a couple of questions about the Ticket Plus. The site I’m working on currently uses the Events Calendar plugin, we need Reservation/RSVP functionality. Specifically we are wondering if Tickets plus can do the following:

1. Extra / extended fields: First Name, Last Name, Title, Organization, additional check boxes ect.
2. We need to limit the tickets purchased to 1, but may have 1000 available
3 If the person is logged into the site can the pluggin pre-populated the fields from the WordPress user information and / or extended profile fields?
Thank you, Sincerely Patricia AndraKA

Hi, Pat. Thanks for your interest in our plugin suite.

Event Tickets Plus (ET+) is our paid add-on plugin that upgrades the functionality of our free Event Tickets (ET) plugin.

Event Tickets Plus enables you to sell tickets via one of our supported eCommerce platforms. The free plugin only enables free RSVP-type tickets.

You can view our roundup/comparison of all the eCommerce plugins ET+ supports.

Our plugin uses your eCommerce plugin of choice, but your eCommerce plugin isn’t displayed for shopping pages. Please reference our Making Tickets KB article (screenshots are from an install using WooCommerce) for an idea how to create tickets for an event.

Site visitors would purchase tickets from each event’s single page/view (e.g. http://wpshindig.com/event/events-tickets-demo/) — if there is an RSVP to submit or ticket to purchase.

The order confirmation email will include a QR code that can be scanned to “check in” someone at the door at the time of the event. It could be displayed on their mobile device or they could print it like any other email. You can read more at Tickets: Managing your orders and attendees.

If your tickets will be free, you don’t need QR code check-in, and you don’t need to collect additional information other than name and email address, you likely could just use the free/core Event Tickets plugin.

To limit the quantity available to purchase at a time, please reference these snippets:

and

The ability to pre-fill user data into basic ticket information is likely to be a future feature, but this Template Override example (https://theeventscalendar.com/support/forums/topic/populate-rsvp-form-if-user-logged-in/) could be helpful if you need such functionality right away.

Last but not least, we have a pretty great Refund Policy so you can buy one or many of our add-ons and thoroughly test them.

I hope this info helps. Let me know if you have any follow-up questions.
