…I want to voice that the (Woo) Product Bundles plugin (http://www.woothemes.com/products/product-bundles/) combined with WooTickets & ECP is an effective solution to sell bundled tickets. One of the core requirements for a site I’m developing was to be able to sell a series of classes for a different price from what they would cost individually. The site is in beta now and I have extensively tested the flow from purchasing a series/bundle of four classes (which is effectively four standard woo products) all the way to the attendee list and it works like a charm.

One thing to note is that the order won’t show up in the attendee list until the order is confirmed (whether it is a bundle or stand-alone class). Until the order is confirmed, the box at the top of the attendee list will reflect that the ticket has been sold but it will not show up in the list. Once the order is confirmed, both bundled purchases as well as stand-alone classes are showing up as they should in the attendee list. Related to this issue of the order needing to be confirmed before showing up in the attendee list, it is a WooCommerce thing that puts the order initially into a status of “processing” when a user submits a new order. This makes sense for sites that are selling products and need to do fulfillment but probably often doesn’t make sense for a site selling tickets. This can be remedied by a snippet of code that will automatically complete orders when they are submitted which can be found here: http://docs.woothemes.com/document/automatically-complete-orders/.

I’m sharing all of this because I spent quite a bit of time trying to find a solution and this is what has worked for me. And – I WHOLEHEARTEDLY agree with @orgspring that this should be a feature included with WooTickets.

Thanks for providing the information.

We are working on updating the ticket framework and hope to include a more robust solution then the system we have now. I do not have a timetable for that ticket framework, but it is actively being worked on.

I am going to close this ticket, but the information will remain. If anyone has a questions related to this topic please create a new ticket and reference it.

I am also moving it to WooCommerce Tickets Forum as it is relevant to that plugin.

Thanks
