Which plugin to buy and best way to set it up

[Dawid Prazak]

Hi there,

Here is the set up I would ideally want to have:

I have major location venues for fishing – Venue A / Venue B / Venue C. Each Venue will have indivudual packages for example Pike / Salmon / Salt etc. Each of these packages will have assigned guides. Each package can have 1 or more guides. Each package will take up the whole day and availability of the package will show up on the calendar and show how many spaces there.

Is it possible to make a set up where this can be bought as gift ?
Is it possible to synchronize it with Google Calendar?
Which plugin is best suited for this?
In terms of payments, is it possible to take payments with the plug ins but also is it possible to disable payments but receive the package confirmation and approve it?

Sorry for the amount of questions and thanks for your help.

Best Regards,

Dawid Prazak

Good evening Dawid and welcome to the Events Calendar forum!

Thank you for your interest in our products.
We’ll be glad to answer your questions.

The short answer is yes.
What you can do is absolutely feasible.

To accomplish this you will need the following plugins:

1. the Events Calendar (free): https://theeventscalendar.com/product/wordpress-events-calendar/
2. Event Tickets (free): https://theeventscalendar.com/product/wordpress-event-tickets/
3. Event Tickets Plus (premium add-on): https://theeventscalendar.com/product/wordpress-event-tickets-plus/
4. WooCommerce

This will let you:

• Use the calendar’s Venue custom post type for Venue A / Venue B / Venue C.
• Use either the Event categories or the Tickets for Pike / Salmon / Salt (depending on your scenario)
• Use (and rename) the Organizer custom post type to guides. This works because you can have multiple organizers per event.
• See the spaces available through the use of Tickets. You can even have several tickets for a single event and use a Global stock limitation, should you wish to.

Is it possible to make a set up where this can be bought as gift ?

Yes, that is possible through the use of WooCommerce many many plugins.
The simplest form being a coupon code.

Is it possible to synchronize it with Google Calendar?

You can import your events from Google calendar via our awesome Event Aggregator service: https://theeventscalendar.com/product/event-aggregator/

In terms of payments, is it possible to take payments with the plug ins but also is it possible to disable payments but receive the package confirmation and approve it?

We actually hand over all of the transactional aspect of things to WooCommerce.

This means you can setup as many payment gateways as you would like. Even Cheque Payment (which would seem to fit your need as far as the approval process is concerned).

There are a number of payment gateways available by default with the plugin, but there are many others available as a third-party plugin.

Let me know if that helps.

Have a great day!
