Recurring events

[Eric]

Hello,

we’re wandering to use your calendar in our new wordpress site.
We have one particularity: we have recurring events that occurs once a week (same day, same time) but with an unique subscription for the whole period.
We have, for example, acting classes that starts in September and ends in June. All our classes have like 14 spots and people can register even after the classes have begun and join the group that already exist, but we want to have the correct “left-spot” number in the following events.

cheers,
Eric

Hey Eric,

While our PRO add-on has recurrence functionality that would indeed handle the recurrence of the event itself fine, in line with the description you gave for it, unfortunately the “left-spot” / event registration is a bit trickier – as things currently stand, our ticketing add-ons only handle ticketing for single events. So even if an event is within a recurring series of events, tickets can only be sold for one at a time.

It sounds like for the registration/”left-spots” functionality, you’re trying to sell tickets or reservations that are sold one time, and sign someone up for all of the events in the series. Is this correct? If so, you’d unfortunately have to either build something that enables this yourself, or attempt to work around the limitation by simply selling tickets to the first event and just checking against that for all future events manually.

Let me know if anything here helps or if you need clarification about a specific thing I mentioned.

Thanks!
George

Hello George,

you understood correctly! Then I’ll continue as I did it until now: create an event for the whole period and specify in the title that it occurs only on a specific day 😉
Thanks for your answer!

ciao
