Hi,
We are looking to set up an “event” (ie ceramics class) that will happen each week (ie tuesday from 7-9pm) for a set period of time (ie 2 months – 8 sessions). There is one fee for all 8 tuesday sessions of the class. Is it possible to use your Re-occuring Events Manager to do this? If so, can you explain how or point me to an FAQ that covers the topic? I used the sandbox to try and it looks like it is setting up multiple events with separate fees vs. a series of events with one fee.
Additionally, we’d like each session to show up on the calendar so that at a glance you would be able to see all sessions with dates and times.
Thank you,
Kimberly

HI Kimberly,
How are you today?
If you want your attendees to register for one event, say at the beginning of a series then: 1) create each event and use the Recurring Events Manager (recommended method) to schedule the subsequent occurrence of the events, 2) then in the subsequent events in the series you can use the Alternate Registration Page (http://www.screencast.com/t/JZTyjAZQ3W6M) field to point the event details pages of the subsequent events to the registration page for the first event. That will allow you to display all the other events on your calendar, but control the attendee records and registration limits by the settings of the first event. Does that make sense? Then you can also have one-off events too.
With the Multiple Event Registration addon (https://eventespresso.com/product/espresso-multiple/) you can configure individual shortcodes to add a series of events (where the individual pays for all tickets) to the cart at one time.
The shortcode to add a series of events to the cart in one step looks like this:
[ESPRESSO_CART_LINK event_id=”6-7-8-9-10-11-12-13-14-15-16-17-18-19″ direct_to_cart=1 moving_to_cart=”Redirecting to cart…”]
Each number in the event_id parameter is the event id for that event (not to be confused with the “Unique Event Identifier”). The event id can be found on the Event Overview page in your dashboard.
Does that help?
