I am working with a client and trying to get the Espresso ticketing to work they way they need it to for their performances. I have run into several somewhat related issues that I cannot get around. Before I try to figure out a way to custom code them, I wanted to see if there was a way I could do it within the system: I created several ticket types: General Admin, Student, Senior, etc. But users can only purchase one ticket type. Is there a way to allow a family to purchase 2 general admin, one student and one senior? Also, they are selling parking at the lot next to the venue for $5. Is there a way to select that as an add-on fee? If I create it as a ticket type (ie. General Admin & Parking), then it gets multiplied by the number of tickets. Third, they want to use a Buy One Get One Free promo code. With the current promo codes I couldn’t figure out a way to do that, so I made it a fixed price discount equal to the amount of a single tickets and added some jQuery that would only allow the user to proceed when using that code if they selected more than one ticket. This works, how ever they would like it to give the user 2 free tickets if they purchase 4 (3 free for 6, etc). Is there a way to make that happen?

1) Yes, using the Multiple Event Registration addon. When a user adds the event to cart on checkout they are shown a list of the ticket types and can purchase multiples of each ticket.
2) Car parking. Not currently, aside from having it as an event, though that could work well, we have had many customers sell physical products that way.
3) 50% discount code but the issue is that it would affect a sale of odd number tickets and also additionals like the car parking. The Volume Discount add on (beta version) can do the same as the discount code but make it automatic and you can at least set it to kick in at 2 or more tickets though odd number ticket sales will still be an issue.
