I actually had at least three people tell me they decided not to attend an event recently because they got so frustrated trying (and failing) to add a ticket to a cart. It&#8217;s usually a &#8220;duh&#8221; moment for them when I tell them they just need to increase the ticket quantity from 0 to 1, but the reality of my situation is that the vast majority of my sales are to customers who are buying a single ticket to an event that only has one type of ticket. For those customers, the current system is unintuitive, and I shouldn&#8217;t have to train customers on using a basic online shopping cart. Is there any chance the tickets themselves could have a &#8220;default ticket amount&#8221; field (maybe in the Advanced section? Near where you set the start date and end date for those ticket sales?), and that the general ticketing options in the Settings could allow the setting of a global default that gets overridden by anything set in the individual ticket fields, for those of us who usually need things one way or the other, but might occasionally deviate from it?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1574948","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>Can we please have an option to set an event&#039;s default ticket amount to 1?
