We are looking for a way to offer a ticket for $40 as buy one get one free and want it to look appealing on the event. I’ve seen the ticket bundle example after searching the forum but surely there is a fancier way to show BOGO on the events page where they select amount of tickets. Do we make one ticket $40 and a minumum/maximum of 1. Then make a bundled ticket minimum qty2 and maximum X. And make both $40 as the price? Or do we have to make the bundled ticket have a price modifier of 50% or $discount? |

Hi there, With EE you need to create a ticket bundle to allow for this: https://eventespresso.com/wiki/create-ticket-bundle/ So you would create a normal ticket at $40 (you can set the max qty to 1 if preferred). Then another ticket with a price of $20 and set the min/max qty to 2 for that ticket, meaning the user can only select 2 tickets = $40 – http://take.ms/R7wt3
I’m not sure why you would use a ticket bundle and then a 50% discount price modifier, did you mean on a standard ticket with 50% discount? |

Hey guys so we have an issue now. It seems customers are pretty darn smart and we have the ticket bundle setup perfectly where they get 2 tickets for the price of 1. BUT, what one customer just now did was go and view the event cart and decrease the quantity to 1 ticket even though the ticket name is clearly (2 Painters) and we have it set to a minimum and maximum of 2 tickets. So I believe that there needs to be a setting where the customer can’t decrease the quantity by viewing the event cart when we clearly have it set to min/max of 2 tickets. I know you smart coders can figure something out for all of us :). Or heck, maybe I actually did set something up wrong but 99.9% sure I have it setup correctly. I can share a link privately if you let me know how. Thanks |

Hi there, We have a ticket to investigate this further, for the time being what you could do is hide the Add/Remove ticket qty buttons using CSS and disable the qty field to stop people updating them. You can do that using:
You can add that to Appearance -> Customize -> Additional CSS Please refer to this guide for more detailed information about the CSS customizer: https://codex.wordpress.org/CSS#Custom_CSS_in_WordPress |

Hi Tony, Thanks and keep me updated if you can on which update includes a fix OR if the only way to fix it will be CSS long term. Have a good weekend. |

Just to note, we don’t have any eta on a fix for this currently as the developers are working on other areas of the plugin so it’s unlikely to be fixed ‘soon’. We usually work through any tickets within a release and update the threads linked to those tickets notifying users the update has been released, however just incase we miss this thread for any reason you can also find details of all our releases in the changelog: |
