Tickets pro

Does this tool allow users to sign up for an event

We do not necessarily want to charge them at this point
but like to:
allow to sign up & book slot & get notifications.

Hi, GP.

Thanks for your interest in Event Tickets Plus (ET+), our paid add-on plugin that upgrades the functionality of our free Event Tickets (ET) plugin.

Event Tickets Plus enables you to sell tickets via one of our supported eCommerce platforms. The free plugin only enables free RSVP-type tickets.

You can view our roundup/comparison of all the eCommerce plugins ET+ supports.

Our plugin uses your eCommerce plugin of choice, but your eCommerce plugin isn’t displayed for shopping pages. Please reference our Making Tickets KB article (screenshots are from an install using WooCommerce) for an idea how to create tickets for an event.

Site visitors would purchase tickets from each event’s single page/view (e.g. example.com/events/rogers-day-at-the-zoo/) — if there is an RSVP to submit or ticket to purchase.

The order confirmation email will include a QR code that can be scanned to “check in” someone at the door at the time of the event. You can read more at Tickets: Managing your orders and attendees.

If your tickets will be free, you don’t need QR code check-in, and you don’t need to collect information other than name and email address, you likely could just use the free/core Event Tickets plugin.

I hope this info helps. Please let me know if you have any follow-up questions.

hmm- this is appears to me a cut-n-paste response without really trying to understand my question.

GP, our ET / ET+ product is not a true “bookings” solution (like having available time-of-day slots that have limited capacity), although quite a few users do seem to use it this way via PRO’s recurring events functionality (which ET does not yet support).

Other than that, I believe the information I shared should give you a pretty solid understanding of what ET / ET+ is capable of and to help you decide whether you can get away with using the free one or if you’ll need to upgrade to ET+.

Please let me know if you have any follow-up questions on this topic.

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. If you’re still looking for help with this, please do open a new thread, reference this one and we’d be more than happy to continue the conversation over there.

Thanks so much!
