Registration plugins

[carl hedin]

I’m trying to familiarize myself with all that the events calendar does. I’m working on a site that needs to have event registration, show the number of slots left for an event, and be able to pay for it. I see a couple of third party registration plugins. Can I get some input on what plugins I need to buy for my client? I know “the events calendar” and I’m assuming the ticket plugin, but what do i gain by using third party registration plugins?

Hi Carl,

Thanks for getting in touch!

Here are the plugins I would recommend for your client:

• The Events Calendar (free) – You’re already familiar with this one, but it is the core plugin that all others rely on. It allows you to create event posts and display them in a calendar format on the site.
• Event Tickets (free) – This extends The Events Calendar so you can create free tickets (RSVPs) for the evetns published to the site.
• Event Tickets Plus – This extends Event Tickets so that you can create paid tickets for events and take payments for them by integrating into WooCommerce, which acts as the shopping cart for accepting payments. It also provides a way for you to show how many tickets are left for an event and to take registration information during checkout.

I believe this will give you everything you’re looking for with event publishing, ticket creation and registration functionality.

Does this help answer your question? Please let me know!

Cheers,
Geoff
