Hi,<\/p>\n
I’ve got a very specific set of requirements for a client site that i’ve been racking my brain over for the last few days to provide a solution for.<\/p>\n
The client runs a club that offers paid memberships, once a member you’re able to purchase tickets to individual events that they run.<\/p>\n
The solution that *i think* would work reasonably well is as follows:
\n– the events calendar: this would be used to list events
\n– woocommerce: this would handle the transactions
\n– woocommerce groups addon: this would provide the paid membership functionality, e.g. when a user purchases membership they are added to the “Member” user group
\n– woocommerce tickets: this would allow the site to sell the events through the events calendar<\/p>\n
What i’m not convinced of is that I would be able to restrict sales to particular tickets to only logged in members using the groups plugin. I am concerned with regards to compatibility and I would be hugely grateful if anyone has any feedback on doing something similar. I’m very open to suggestions if you believe there is a better solution out there.<\/p>\n
I had looked into using Eventbrite to handle all transactions as this has the potential to be a much cleaner and more secure solution however we run into issues where we need to restrict access to to only members. A password protected event is not secure enough and the events would need to be listed on the site (as the events calendar plugin displays them) along with a link to purchase tickets – this isn’t something that i’m aware you can do (as well as restrict access to them).<\/p>\n
Apologies if any of what i’ve gone through above doesn’t make sense.<\/p>\n
Please let me know if I need to elaborate on any of the points.<\/p>\n
Thanks,
