I want a list view of available dates, but since I have different ticket options, I don’t want any prices to appear in the list of dates, just the event itself. Once they choose an event, then they will have the ticket types and prices to choose from. So they would choose a date, then choose a ticket type.
With the ticket types/prices, the area to show the price options is very narrow, so until you click on the drop down options, you don’t see the price listed.
Ex: You can only see “CPR & Basic first aid ($8”
http://funcpr.com/wordpress/?ee=1
Is there a way to make CPR & First aid one event with a price, CPR only another event with a price, first aid only an event with a price. These events are all on the same day, but the person would only choose one to register for.
Every time you click on something to register, the new screen takes you to the very top of the wordpress page, so you have to scroll down to see what the next step is, like confirm registration, pay, etc. Why is it doing that? Because of this, people have been registring, then not paying since they didn’t scroll down to confirm and pay!
Finally, I’d like to be able to have advanced features that shopping carts such as woocommerce offer, such as:
ability to add them to a newsletter, join a loyalty or affiliate program, offer related products on checkout, one page checkout. How can I do this? Having all of these multiple screens might drive customers away. Can I just use woocommerce to check them out? I just want a simple, seamless process to get people registered.

Hi Jason,
Hopefully I understand your issue correctly, but if not please advise further.
I think there are two ways to do what you are asking.
1) on the event list use some CSS to hide the prices, and have each ticket as an event. There is a flaw to this methid though in that if you have limnited capacity you would have to split this capacity between these events which I would think is not ideal.
2) You could use a table view either via the old Custom Files add on or the new Custom Templates addon. A screenshot of the Custom Templates default template http://d.pr/i/Hlzc
This would mean that the prices would still appear in a dropdown menu but again, some simple CSS can make that wider, for instance:
p.event_prices select {
width: 300px;
}
Regarding the top of the screen, this is standard behaviour for most websites and most browsers: you are going to a new page so it starts at the top.
Version 4.0 features a single page registration process which basically eliminates going from screen to screen, but there is little that can be done in 3.1.x unless you add in some jquery to force the page to scroll.
add them to a newsletter
You can use the Mailchimp addon
join a loyalty or affiliate program
You would need to use a third party plugin to achieve this. We are considering a simple affiliate system in version 4.0 but nothing has been confirmed yet.
offer related products on checkout,
You can use the Price Modifer plugin to add extra costs to the ticket prices, but this is done during the registration process.
one page checkout.
See above re: Event Espresso 4
Can I just use woocommerce to check them out?
At this time Event Espresso does not integrate with Woo Commerce
