Suitable for my needs???

[Mr T]

Hi
I’m thinking of using Events Calendar, Event tickets and Event tickets plus with woocomerce for my website and just wanted to check if other people thought this was the right combo for my website functions. I want to allow customers to book a half hour appointment slot with a member of our team and pay when they book. I wasn’t sure if Event tickets plus will be right for this as it says on the home page about not being enabled to perform reoccurring events or is there a way round this? I am effectively creating a reoccurring event with multiple tickets available, starting every half hour of everyday. Will these plugins work for this or will it just be a lot of inputting??? The other part of our site is for customers to be able to book to go on a course of ours. Each course will be held at various venues up and down the uk. I’m sure these plugins will be great for this I’m just not sure about the appointments, can anyone offer any pointers or suggestions of another way to set this up?

Many thanks

Ps another question, I see Event tickets plus as the function of gathering information from customers when they book, is there the option to allow them to upload a file when they book? Thanks again.

Hi there,

Thanks so much for stopping by and checking out our plugins! I’m afraid that you might find our plugins falling a bit short of your particular needs here. 🙁 Unfortunately, you’re correct in that support for ticketing recurring events isn’t available with Events Calendar PRO and Event Tickets Plus at this time. Additionally, our plugins do not include any built-in support for bookings (for the booking of specific items, venues, time slots, etcetera). While we do plan to incorporate this recurring ticket support at some point in the future, we don’t have any plans to add booking support to our products–if this type of pre-built implementation is critical to your project, you may wish to consult a third-party developer or consider other options.

I’m so sorry to be the bearer of bad news here–I do wish you the best of luck with your project, and we hope we might have the opportunity to welcome you back should your needs change in the future! 🙂 Thanks again, and please don’t hesitate to let us know if there’s anything else that we can do for you!

Thanks for getting back to me Caroline, I did suspect that was the case. Ever mind, back to drawing board!
