We&#8217;re looking for some specific features:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Using WP users<\/strong><br \/>\nWe would like to ask (but not require) people who purchase tickets to set up a WP account on our site, and record information from their ticket purchase against that user account (see below).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Custom Fields<\/strong><br \/>\nWe gather a lot of information from the people who sign up for tickets. We need the ability to create custom fields to gather this information and store it against the ticket holder&#8217;s id in a database.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ticket transfers<\/strong><br \/>\nMy organization sells digital tickets and allows participants to DIGITALLY TRANSFER those tickets. So the ticket owner arranges to get cash from the person they are selling the ticket to privately, and then goes into the website, and adds in the new ticket owner&#8217;s email address. The system then sends the new ticket owner and email and they complete a ticket purchase with all steps EXCEPT the financial transaction. We need this feature because we want all participants to agree to a waiver and to complete other form-field data.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Waitlists &amp; Ticket returns<\/strong><br \/>\nOur events sell out quickly. We&#8217;d like the ability to gather a waiting for people who want tickets if they tickets sell out before they are able to buy one. We would then accept ticket returns so long as there are people on the waitlist. Ideally, for every ticket return the system would email the first person on the waitlist an opportunity to purchase the ticket, and that opportunity would expire in a set time period (24 hours). At expiry the system would provide a purchase opportunity to the next person on the waitlist. <\/p>\n<p>Thanks in advacne for your replies!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1338800","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Event Tickets Plus: Ticket transfers, Waitlists, Using WP users, Custom Fields -<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/theeventscalendar.com\/support\/forums\/topic\/event-tickets-plus-ticket-transfers-waitlists-using-wp-users-custom-fields\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Event Tickets Plus: Ticket transfers, Waitlists, Using WP users, Custom Fields -\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"I&#8217;m looking at Events Tickets plus as a solution for arts event ticketing.
