Hi
I have recently purchased EE4 and features including the calendar are important for my site / business. Another feature that is critical is the coupon codes feature. i see that it is not currently in EE4 (but in EE3). when will EE4 be updated with this?

Hi Fernando,
We can’t currently provide a time scale for when the EE4 promo codes addon will be available but rest assured that it is being worked on, as we know it is important to many of our customers.

Hi Dean
Can you at least provide a rough guide …..1 month, 6 months, 1 year?? As I need to decide whether I move to another event registration software or wait for the addon. It has important financial implications for my business.
Regards,Fernando

Hi,
While I know it’s frustrating, it is very hard to provide a timescale on things like this. We have tried it in the past, only to disappoint customers when the schedule gets pushed back.
Right now there are 10 open tickets for the addon which in number is small but it’s difficult to say how long each will take.
We are aware that the promotions system for EE4 is desired by a lot of people and we are trying to get the first iteration out soon but we also don’t want to push put a plugin that doesn’t work or has major bugs in it.

Starting today, current support license holders can opt in to the pre-release channel and download the Event Espresso 4.7 and Promotion add-on pre-releases.
We’d love to get your feedback on some of the new promotion features and changes that we’ve been working on. These include:
- New interface for managing promocodes
- Promo code discounts now apply to entire order instead of per ticket
- Promo code generator
- Automatic (non-promo-code) discounts
- Discounts limited by quantity
- Discounts limited by start date and end date
- A widget for displaying non-promo-code discounts
- A shortcode for displaying non-promo-code discounts
Important: The Event Espresso 4 promotions add-on will activate only if Event Espresso 4.7 is active. This means you’ll need to install the Event Espresso 4.7 pre-release before installing the promotions add-on.
If you haven’t already opted into Event Espresso’s pre-release channel, you can go to your account page and check the box to opt in to the pre-release channel. Once you opt in, the download files will be available under the EE4 tab under the Pre Release Downloads heading.
You can find out more information about in the pre-release channel guide.
If you have feedback about Promotions or the 4.7 release, please reply to that Promotions announcement or start another new topic.
