Hi Jerry, thanks for reaching out!
These are excellent questions. My hunch is that neither The Events Calendar nor Event Tickets are going to be a great fit for your project.
For example, our plugins do not offer variable pricing right out of the box. In other words, it is unable to display different prices for tickets based on a person’s membership status on the site, though I have heard some folks have success integrating our plugins with WooCommerce and its Dynamic Pricing extension. In other words, it might be possible to achieve that functionality with the following plugins installed:
- Event Tickets
- Event Tickets Plus
- WooCommerce
- Dynamic Pricing
…but our plugins do not offer that right out of the box. Just worth keeping mind.
I need the attendee to only be able to choose 1 of the 3 as they cannot be in more than one place at a time.
Our plugins are great for displaying calendar events, but are not well suited for booking specific timeslots within events. That said, I do not believe The Events Calendar would be very conducive for the concept of educational credits that can be used toward booking a timeslot.
Sorry for the bad news, but does this at least help answer your questions? Definitely let me know if you have any other questions and I’d be happy to help as best I can!
Cheers,
GeoffHey Steve, welcome to the forums!
The easiest way to display the day of the week in the List widget is to:
- Head to Events > Settings > Display
- Change the “Date without year” setting to: l, F j
- Save the settings
That will include the day of the week in the widget (screenshot). Will that work for you as well? Please let me know. 🙂
Cheers!
GeoffHi Mikko and thanks for getting in touch!
So sorry about the trouble here with recurring events, especially on the translation side of things. I’m afraid the sticking point here is that Events Calendar PRO’s recurring events feature is incompatible with WPML. We’ve been working with the WPML team to build more integration between the two plugins (it requires a lot of work on both sides) and, while we’ve made strides in that direction, there’s still a lot to do that we plan on releasing in future updates to the plugin and that I know WPML plans to release in their future updates as well. While I do not have a timetable for when everything would be released, I do know it’s a difficult process and is more down the road than right around the corner.
My hunch is that the recent plugin update (likely both to Events Calendar PRO and WPML) overwrote whatever configuration you had in place before that was successful in getting things to work. Are you able to downgrade versions to what you had installed before? If so, that might be the best way to restore the compatibility you were able to achieve with The Events Calendar, Events Calendar PRO and WPML.
Thanks,
GeoffHi Nathan,
Thanks for getting in touch! I’m really happy to hear you’re considering Event Tickets for your site. 🙂
Event Tickets will indeed allow you to create an unlimited number of RSVP (free) tickets for the event. Each time a person registers for the event, Event Tickets will generate a RSVP which the person can then use to check into the event.
The sticking point might be the second part of your question. Event Tickets is designed to RSVP a person right away, so there really is no mechanism to manually approve people and then send the RSVP email from there. However, there is a snippet you can use to disable the RSVP email. That would allow you to manually curate the list of attendees and then communicate with them from there.
Either way, Event Tickets is a free download so it might be worth plugging it in and giving a test drive to see if that configuration works for you.
Does this help answer your question? Please let me know.
Cheers!
GeoffHey Luke, hope you’re having a great day!
That’s odd — the long description should display on the individual event post by default. Here’s an example of that right from our demo site.
Do you happen to know if the theme has customized versions of the calendar template in it? You can check by opening the theme folder and looking for a folder called tribe-events in there.
If there is no tribe-events folder in there, then you may need to either create your own customized version of the template, or try switching to a default WordPress theme just to confirm that the reason there is no conflict in the theme that is preventing the full post description from displaying.
Let’s start there and see what we find. In the meantime, I am going to move this thread over to our technical support forum.
Thanks!
GeoffThat is so awesome to hear! Nice work and thanks a ton for following up to let me know.
I would definitely recommend backing up all your files on all future WordPress, theme and plugin updates moving forward to ensure that workaround stays in tact. 🙂
I’ll go ahead and close this thread but thanks again for following up and definitely let us know if any other questions come up and we’d be happy to help as best we can.
Cheers,
GeoffHi Joan and thanks for following up!
I’ve been looking at this with a few other folks on the team and it looks like the combination of the site both running PHP 5.2 and on a Windows server is a likely culprit. If it’s possible to update PHP then that would be great, though it may not solve the full equation here.
In particular, it appears that the error comes up when attempting to update the plugin’s translation files. One workaround, if you’re willing to give it a try, is to delete all of the files from the following folder in the plugin: /lang
That will prevent WordPress from attempting to update the language files when the plugin is uploaded manually using a FTP application instead of through the WordPress admin which, in turn, should prevent that error from freezing the plugin update.
Let’s try that and see what we find.

Cheers and thanks for following up, James! Hope you had a great weekend. I’ll go ahead and close this thread but please do let us know if any other questions come up and we’d be happy to help.

Hi Raul, thanks for following up!
I’m afraid not. The QR code only displays in the ticket, which is emailed to the purchaser after the checkout is completed.
Cheers,
GeoffHi Alessandro,
Thanks for following up!
The “find out more” link can be hidden with this:
.fusion-meta-info { display: none; }Here’s a screenshot of how that looks when I test it out.
Yes, it is possible to show the event city and price under the title. You may actually want to reach out to the Avada theme author for that one though, because Avada already uses cutom templates for The Events Calendar and they would be much more familiar with the code.
The two functions you will want to use are:
- tribe_get_city()
- tribe_get_formatted_cost()
You will add those to the template where you would like them to be displayed. Again, you may want to reach out to the Avada theme author for more guidance here, but I believe you will be able to find the template in the Avada theme directory at: /wp-content/themes/Avada/tribe-events/pro/photo/single-event.php.
Sorry I don’t have a concrete solution for you here, but I really do hope that at least helps get you started and that the Avada theme author will be able to pick up any questions from there.
Cheers!
GeoffWell, shoot! Sorry about that.
You can try this instead:
#tribe-events-header .tribe-events-sub-nav { display: none; }This also works when I tested it on your site (screenshot).
Cheers,
GeoffHi Hakob,
I see my last reply was marked as the correct answer. I’ll go ahead and close this thread but please do let us know if any other questions come up and we’d be happy to help. 🙂
Cheers and have a great day!
Geoff
Thanks so much, I appreciate the update! Definitely keep us posted.
It’s worth noting that our system automatically closes threads after 3 weeks of inactivity. I doubt that will be the case here, but wanted to point that out in case it happens. If it does, then we can always continue the conversation in a new thread.
Cheers and have a great weekend!
Geoff
