Hello,

I am very interested in buying you plugin for some events on me site. I need some kind all in one solution and i hope this plugin is exactly what i need. I need to be sure for some things.

1.
When I add events i need they to be published like posts. One above another with title, content(custom number of characters ), and featured image.

2.
Also when I add event i need them to be placed in calendar. That day of event should be highlighted and when i click should be lead to that event. I need calendar for sidebar and one large for full width page.

3.
Since i need some online reservation form(PayPal system), I am wondering does this plugin support this too. I need some basic fields like name, email.. and few advance form for calculating number of tickets, multiple price and then final result. For example:

breakfast __( they should enter number of people ) x __(price that i enter before) = __(should calculate total cost)

lunch__( they should enter number of people ) x __(price that i enter before) = __(should calculate total cost)

__(calculate total number of people) __ (calculate total cost)

Main idea is when they enter number of people => total number of people is calculating in the same time.

Sorry for long explanation, but i really need some solution for all of this because this would save me a lot of time.

Thanks in advance.

Hello John,

  1. When I add events i need they to be published like posts. One above another with title, content(custom number of characters ), and featured image.

The events will appear in list on your Event Registration page (see example here). Also, you can choose to create a post that will be added to your blogroll (see example here). You are can add title, content, and a featured image to your events.

  1. Also when I add event i need them to be placed in calendar. That day of event should be highlighted and when i click should be lead to that event. I need calendar for sidebar and one large for full width page.

We have both a calendar that can be placed on a page (like this) and/or in a widget like on this page. You can choose the events from the calendar and proceed with the registration process.

  1. Since i need some online reservation form(PayPal system), I am wondering does this plugin support this too. I need some basic fields like name, email.. and few advance form for calculating number of tickets, multiple price and then final result.

With our Multiple Event Registration add on that is included in the Business License, you can add multiple events to a cart. The total cost is then calculated and a total is given. If the registrant decides to remove the event from their cart, the total is adjusted. I hope this answers your questions.

Please let us know if you have anymore.

Hey again,
Thanks for very quick answer.

I must say that calendar look very nice.

1.About event list i need to be sure because i need exactly something like this http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/15/eventslist.png/ (date and time are not important). Its look just regular post and when i enter single event i will put register link and other things.

2.
I probably don’t gonna need multiple event registration, just single one. For example http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/33/eventform.png/

Sorry for this additional questions but i need to be sure because this will save me a lot time, and i gonna have a lot of events so if this work like this it’s gonna be awesome.
Thanks again.

With the 3.1.29 update, we added featured image support (which can be customized by tweaking the template files or CSS) for events. So you can have an event list that looks the way your mockup looked.

2.I probably don’t gonna need multiple event registration, just single one. For example http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/33/eventform.png/

Currently the only way to have separate line items for each type of ticket is with the Multi Event Registration add-on and adding each of those as a separate event. Without Multi Event Registration, you can have multiple price levels, but you cannot select multiple different ticket types in a single registration without Multi Event Registration.
