Hi Andreas,

Would it be possible to let a ticket buyer to only buy ie 2 tickets of the “IBO the Committed” and once that is selected it is not possible to choose any of the other two ticket types?

You can set a maximum of 2 tickets per transaction which would limit the user to only register on any 2 tickets from any of your available tickets. That means the most tickets any one user can select in a single registration is 2.

It’s the ‘Maximum number of tickets allowed per order for this event’ option here: http://take.ms/vDYz6

Also, I would like the 1st ticket type “IBO the Committed” to be hidden from the available tickets lists until a certain time. And the hide the ticket again after ie. 2 hours.

For that you can set the ‘Goes on sale’ and ‘Sell until’ dates/times on the ticket and then hide them using CSS when the ticket is not available. So add something like this:

.ticket-pending, 
.ticket-sales-expired {
    display: none;
}

We recommend using either the My Custom CSS or Reaktiv CSS Builder plugins to add custom styles such as these.

I want to exclusively give the option for this ticket for attendees who are currently attending an already existing Event.

Event Espresso does have a feature to enable ticket sales based on other ticket tickets so this will need to be handled outside of Event Espresso.

The CSS I provided earlier had the same selector twice, I have updated the post above to fix that.

So it is not possible to set maximum for a specific ticket, just a complete order?

You can set a min/max on a specific ticket.

Click the cog icon for the ticket and set the min / max quantity fields, in your case max 2 – http://take.ms/d2oCL

That will only allow a maximum of 2 tickets for that specific ticket type to be purchased, however that does not limit the user to only purchasing that ticket type in a single registration.

One problem though. Now all tickets disappeared.
Is it possible to pin-point just one specifik ticket to hide?

You can use the ticket name within the CSS prefixed with ‘ee-ticket-‘, so in your case it would be:

.ee-ticket-ibo-the-committed.ticket-pending {
    display: none;
}

That will target only the ‘IBO the committed’ ticket whilst it is pending.

The ‘Maximum number of tickets allowed per order for this event’ setting, shown here: http://take.ms/vDYz6

Sets the total amount of tickets a user purchase in one single order.

So in effect they can only select 2 tickets from an combination of tickets available.

The individual settings within each ticket allow you to specify a qty for each individual ticket. Meaning they can only select a max of 2 for that ticket type, if ‘Maximum number of tickets allowed per order for this event’ is higher than this they can also select other tickets if needed.
