Can Our Ticket Fields Be DropDowns?

Hey Guys!

We have some events that have a ton of tickets.

For example, we have some events that are every day in a month, so for one event posting we have a ticket created for each individual day.

This can result in pretty long ticket sections, like the image linked here: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/ebzx2pip7a4c63kp2t6dp/Ticket-Example.png?rlkey=kzoy0bedasxy1c0vjyd93y78z&st=kxt6gza1&dl=0

Furthermore, we sometimes have tickets where they can choose multiple options, so there would be 2 or 3 different ticket options for each day.

My question here:
Is there functionality in Event Espresso, (or in the recurring tickets add-on) that would allow us to continue to use one event “post” like we currently do, but include dropdowns for each?

So for example, the ticket section would just be:
Date Dropdown – Ticket Tier Dropdown – Ticket Quantity Dropdown

Is that dropdown functionality something we can do here?

Thanks so much!

Hi there,

So we don’t have the functionality you are requesting above, but we do have a ticket filter built in if that helps.

Go to Event Espresso -> Events -> Templates

Set the ‘Show Date & Time Filter?’ option to be ‘Maybe show…’

(‘Maybe’ becuase its based on the number of unique datetimes, which is set using the threshold below)

I assume you have a unique datetime for each instance of the event and the tickets are assigned to the correct datetime? If so, you can set the threshold to a number that will enable the filter for these types of events but not for others, try 3 (so 3 unique datetimes before the filter shows).

Then view the ticket selector and you’ll see the datetime selector above it.

Does that help?
