Presale questions

[Jonathan Appleton]

Hi guys

I have to build a site for this motorbike training company who are currently using Joomla with DT register for event bookings.

Can your tickets plus allow complex reg form like this one with conditional fields?

Are we able to tailor a custom welcome email that get sent out to each person who buys a ticket. Each events email might have different wording?

I assume as we will be using Woocommerce for the checkout then we can enable discounts and gift vouchers on shop and events items.

Also been looking at Event Espresso but it seems their version 4 is missing some key features also

Thanks

Howdy Jonathan,

I would love to help you with this. Those are very insightful questions, it’s clear you’re thinking ahead here.

Can your tickets plus allow complex reg form like this one with conditional fields?

The forms would be fairly simple. You can have 4 question types, a drop down, text, radio, and checkbox. So you could put the basic elements of the form into the Event Tickets Plus ticket fields.

But they would not have those nifty little (?) boxes off to the side, that presumably offer a helpful tooltip. Nor would they support custom validation, such as making sure the birth date match YYYY-MM-DD. You could certainly customize our templates to add stuff like that, using JavaScript and PHP. But it will not be a built in feature, it’s one you’d build yourself.

Are we able to tailor a custom welcome email that get sent out to each person who buys a ticket. Each events email might have different wording?

Each email shares a single template. But, you can customize that template. Again this is a feature you could essentially add using a custom template and some knowledge of PHP. You could modify our custom template to change based on which event is sending the email, and so you could add this feature with our API if you are versed in PHP.

One of the major strengths of our calendar is that it is designed to be flexible, and has a very powerful API. This is great for people with knowledge of building customizations for WordPress, but it does not really impact those without such knowledge unless they hire a PHP dev.

Does that all make sense? Will that work for you? Please let me know.

Cheers!

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.
