    I have just downloaded and tested WooCommerce Deposits v1.3.1 with The Events Calendar v4.5.12.2 and Event Tickets Plus v4.5.3. It doesn’t work.

    The table of available tickets shows either the full amount or the deposit amount only depending on how you configure things. The purchaser only sees the deposit details when they go to their cart. Not a good customer experience.

    That said, I’m not sure that Event Tickets Plus can easily incorporate WooCommerce Deposits into it’s ticket display table. The displayed pricing would somehow need to reflect the deposit and full payment options which would be tough to do in the available space.

    Thanks for the response!

    While I appreciate the link to the other thread regarding this issue, I would advocate that the default behavior of the map marker on the map view should be to show all events at a particular location and not just one (see attached screenshot). Note that I’m aware that the map view only shows map pointers for events listed on the current page even though more events at a later date may be defined for the venue.

    If an example would help elucidate the issue, take a look at the upcoming events page on our website: https://www.reveresriders.org/events/. Notice that if you click the map marker for either Bedford, IN or Crawfordsville, IN, only one event is shown in the marker pop-up. However, there are TWO events for each of these locations. Worse, the marker pop-up shows not the event coming up first but the event coming up last!

    If it is not deemed a priority to include all events for a particular location on the map marker pop-up, may I suggest that at least you show the event closest to the current date instead of showing the event furthest into the future?

    Thanks!

    Actually, that doesn’t work for one big reason: the “All Events” link on individual events points back to /events/. That means if/when a visitor to the site clicks that, they are back at the complete calendar of all categories. Not what I want.

    Basically, I want to have the main calendar by constrained to a specified category or categories and not have any any way for the site visitor to accidentally get back to the full calendar of all events in all categories. This is important as I want to make a distinction between events hosted by my organization versus events hosted by 3rd parties. Having them in separate calendars (even though it is just separate categories in the backend) makes this distinction more apparent.

    My understanding is that the EventBrite Tickets plugin can only retrieve events from an EventBrite account for which it has the login credentials. Is that correct?

    What I want to do is pull EventBrite events from arbitrary EventBrite accounts (as I explained in the original post).

    Thanks!

    Couldn’t this be solved by doing essentially what is done on the back-end? Specifically, include text like:

    “X available of global stock Y”

    on the front-end when multiple tickets are defined having a global stock level.

    The advantage of this method is that you can easily address the cases where there are tickets with both global stock and individual stock for a single event (a scenario which is allowed for in the back-end ticket configuration).

    in reply to: Not a fan of the new "Buy Now!" button in list views #1324644

    Instead of doing that, I created a child theme and removed the following lines (64-71) from /the-events-calendar/src/views/list/single-event.php:

    <?php
       /**
       * Runs after cost is displayed in list style views
       *
       * @since 4.5
       */
       do_action( 'tribe_events_inside_cost' )
    ?>

    and put the resulting template file in my child theme at /tribe-events/list/single-event.php.

    I ended up needing a child theme for other customizations anyway, so this was the best route.

    A setting to omit the “Buy Now” button in the WP dashboard would be appreciated (or perhaps I’m unique in my dislike of the “Buy Now” button and even putting that much effort into being able to easily turn it off isn’t worth the effort).

    Thanks for the reply and code snippet.

    in reply to: Email confirmation to organizer #1323825

    I don’t believe the above code actually addresses the original question which was how to include the event organizer on the ticket purchase confirmation email. The above code would add email addresses to the ticket purchase confirmation email for ALL tickets regardless of the organizer would it not?

    My understanding is that it is not currently possible to send an email notification to the event organizer with Event Tickets/Event Tickets Plus. This feature appears to be on the “longterm roadmap” according to this thread on tribe.uservoice.com which also references a different code snippet to implement this feature via the functions.php file.

    Still nothing.

    I loaded the plugin to our development site at devel.reveresriders.org and the page source does not contain a <noscript> tag. Even switched to Twenty Fifteen theme to make sure this wasn’t a theme issue.

    I don’t currently have the time to pursue identifying whether this is a plugin issue or not.

    I looked in the “Extensions Archive” for the extension you mentioned having created and found nothing. Am I looking in the wrong place? I did not see a link to the extension in your response…

    Really appreciate your quick response and work in addressing this issue. Thanks!

    Can’t this functionality just be added to the plugin directly instead of trying to hack it in via functions.php? That would seem to be the “correct” way to do it.

    I’ll hunt around in the code to see if I can figure out where the relevant Javascript is located and modify the code myself.

    I’m using a child theme of Kallyas (https://themeforest.net/item/kallyas-responsive-multipurpose-wordpress-theme/4091658) and adding the code to the functions.php of my child theme.

    The <noscript> tag does not appear in the HTML source of the event page when using our child theme nor when using Twenty Fifteen.

    I’m omitting the leading <?php in your code snippet from above as the functions.php file already includes that.

    The <noscript> modification did not work for me.

    That’s odd. It appears to be working now. I’m guessing this is due to some server-side caching that SiteGround is using. I have all their proprietary caching turned off, but perhaps they have additional caching that can’t be disabled by the customer.

    Weird…

    I’ve found the following:

    • “View Your RSVPs” — this appears to be an issue with our custom child theme of Kallyas
    • clicking on the order # for an RSVP in the dashboard “Attendees List” for an RSVP does not function even with the Twenty Sixteen theme and only the plugins you specified activated
    • editing the RSVP for an event still does not function even with the Twenty Sixteen theme and only the plugins you specified activated

    I will create a new clean install and re-test to determine if the issue is with our particular installation.
