Hi

Am most of the way through setting up EE4 for the first time. Few nagging questions:

1. Does stripe need an SSL certificate?
2. How do I stop it sending a registration confirmation email from being sent to the users
3. How do I make it so that a registered user who hasn’t paid doesn’t get a ticket – its first come first serve and tickets are very limited, so if he doesn’t pay then the registration expires after say 5 mins.
4. How do I do scheduled early bird discounts? I have setup a discount but its manual and I’ll have to remember to sign in next month to turn it off.
5. Is there anyway to turn off those pop up boxes with redundant advice that crop up in the payment options page?
6. I only want to use Stripe as a payment menthod. Right now a user has to slect them from the method of payent, then close the pop up box, then read ‘important payment information’ that just says ‘Cluck the pay now button to proceed’, then they click the pay now button and then that opens Stripe. Is there a way of having Stripe open immediately or at the click of a single button?

Otherwise its looking like well made software.

Richard

Hi,

What version are you using?

1. Yes, it is also recommended on their website: https://stripe.com/help/ssl#do-i-need-to-use-ssl-on-my-payment-pages

2. Do you want to stop all emails? Or just send an email to the primary registrant?

3. You can set the “Default Registration Status” on the event to “Not Approved” (requires manual admin approval) or “Pending Payment” (sends the registration details, tickets, etc after the registrant has paid): http://www.screencast.com/t/VKw5U2wT1Hp

4. Create an early bird ticket (discount price ticket) that has a start and end sale date. Then set up tickets that go on sale at the normal price, after the early bird tickets have expired, etc. This page shows some screen shots of the ticket editor: https://eventespresso.com/wiki/datetime-ticket-names-consolidate-event-pages/

5. You should be able to deactivate any other gateways, then in the Stripe settings page within EE, you can enable the “Open by Default” setting. If checked, this payment method will be selected by default (assuming no other valid payment methods are also marked as open by default).

Cheers Seth

I am using version EE4.6.4.p

I only want the system to send one email. I think its too confusing to be sending them 3. I have turned off the tickets by deactivating the plugin, but it send both a registration and a purchase email. It is unnecessary to send two emails at the same time. I want to put all relevant content and instruction into just the purchase email and stop the registration confirmation email being sent to anyone.

Regards

Richard

Hi Richard,

You can go into the messages admin and deactivate the Registration approved message. The payment received message template can also be edited to include more information.

I don’t see an answer to #5

5. Is there anyway to turn off those pop up boxes with redundant advice that crop up in the payment options page?

Hi there,

Yes, you hide those by adding the following to your custom stylesheet:

#espresso-ajax-notices-success {
  display: none !important;
}

Where do I create the custom stylesheet?

Hi,

Custom CSS can be added to a variety of places:

1) The themes style.css (not recommended as updates to the theme will over write the CSS)
2) A child themes style.css file
3) A custom CSS plugin such as My Custom CSS
4) If the theme has a custom CSS section in the options, you can add it there.

Personally I find option 3 works great as it’s independent of other things.

It looks like that worked; I put it in my child themes’s style.css.

I got this weird error when viewing my Invoice after paying with PayPal. It is the only payment method that is active.

Hi there,

Can you check the invoice link again? The PayPal payment may not have been updated at that point. Along with that, you should not have error display activated on a live production site. You can make sure warnings do not display by adding this to your wp-config.php file’s developer section:

@ini_set( 'display_errors', 0 );
