I want to create events where the event requires ticket purchase and registration of a time slot. 1 person per time slot, in 30 minute intervals over a fixed period of time.

Hi there,
To do that within Event Espresso you would need a ticket for each of those time slots which the user would need to select.
So you’d have a ticket for say 9am – 9:30am, then another for 9:30-10:00am and so on.
Can users purchase multiple timeslots within a single event? You mention a single person per timeslot, but could a user book say 9:30-10am and 1-1:30pm in a single selection?

Thank you for the response, I ended up figuring it out myself but was hoping for a more elegant solution. Users cannot book multiple time slots at one event. It appears to be working as I need to it, it’s just a lot of work to create a ticket for each slot.
The event does not show up in the calendar or list of events, would that be due to the way I had to ticket the event?

No, the ticket structure shouldn’t make any difference.
Is the event published? Can you link me to the event?

That calendar is not the EE Events Calendar, it’s from another plugin.
The default slug for EE events is /events/ but the output for that endpoint is being overridden by the other plugin.
If you create a new test page (call it anything) and add [ESPRESSO_EVENTS] to that page you’ll see the EE calendar.
Are you using the other events plugin currently, if not, disable it and flush your permalinks (Dashboard -> Settings -> Permalinks -> Save) and view the /events/ endpoint again for the EE event list.

Thanks, I did as you suggested and now see the EE4 events list.
Does EE4 offer a calendar format that can show events for the upcoming month or does it just provide a list of events?

Without creating custom theme template files, the /events/ endpoint will be a list of events.
You can create a new page and add the [ESPRESSO_CALENDAR] shortcode to it display a calendar. Its also possible to change the slug for EE events to something other than /events/ so you can use a page with the slug events and add the calendar shortcode to that if you prefer?
(Note that changing the slug will mean your events now list on the new slug, and single events will be available on /{new-slug}/{event-name})
