Schedule and Restricted Content for Event Attendees

[Valerie]

Hi. I’m building a site for an association who hosts multi-day educational seminars with different speakers on multiple days. I’m just wondering how you’d go about listing the schedules using your events plugin or is there a 3rd party that people use for this part or native WP posts? It would be an event like a WordCamp or such but I’m just not sure how to approach listing the schedule.

Also, the association would like to offer a WordPress page or other content only to attendees. How would that work? I’m looking at using your Events Pro and Woocommerce/Woocommerce Members possibly. Just a lot of moving parts and I’m not sure how they’d work together.

Any suggestions you can offer would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Hi Valerie,

Thanks for reaching out to us and for your interest in our products 🙂

Regarding how to display / organize the event for display, I guess there are multiple options depending on the context. For example let’s say I’m creating a site for ‘WordCamp Townsville 2016’ then I guess it would be a good idea to create an event for every talk featuring info about the speaker an the talk itself, as this will give the calendar a better look than having just one event for all the WordCamp. Does this makes sense? Following the same example if there’s just one ticket for all the event then maybe it’s better to create it as a standalone WooCommerce product instead of using Event Tickets Plus.

On the content for ticket purchasers, maybe you can force account creation (or give this as an option to access the premium content) on the checkout so everyone who purchase tickets will end up with an account on the site. If you do so, then it’s just a matter of hiding the premium content to non-logged in users. Other approach might be to send the premium content links in the tickets (or purchase) email. Again there are various ways of doing this.

Hope these tips help you out and please let me know if you have any other follow-up questions on this,
Best,
Nico
