Events + Tickets = Sessions?

Hey they,

Trying to figure out Event Espresso’s relationships here between “Event Datetimes” and “Available Tickets”. I was expecting this to act like an Event->Sessions relationship where the Event Datetimes acted as sessions and Tickets would enable the user to select the number of Event Datetimes (sessions) they purchased a ticket for (by using the “# Datetimes” field under “Ticket Details”).

The end goal here is that:

  • We have a single Event with multiple Sessions inside of it (each lasting a week)
  • We have multiple ticket options, 4 weeks, 6 weeks, 8 weeks, etc.
  • User can register for the event, pick the ticket (number of weeks), and then select from a list the Sessions (for instance, if they purchase the 4 week ticket they can only select 4 sessions from the list)

However, it doesn’t seem like this Event Datetime/Ticket relationship works as I expected. Could someone guide me in the right direction for setting up a system in this way?

Hi there,

You make the relationships between a datetime and a ticket by clicking on the gear icon of the datetime editor and/or the ticket editor, then you check the box next to a ticket or datetime to associate the ticket to the datetime.

Then you can limit the number of datetimes per ticket by entering a number into # Datetimes field.

To help explain a bit further, the user cannot select a datetime, but they can select a ticket that’s associated with a datetime. You may find that you’ll need to set up registration form questions so they can select their choice of sessions.
