One ticket only per event

Hi,

I have an Event that takes place over 2 days – But the tickets can only be booked for either DAY 1 or DAY 2, a person should not be able to book for both days.

I.e. If someone purchased DAY 1, then DAY 2 should be disabled for them.

How can this be achieved?

Many thanks.

You can set only 1 ticket maximum per event, so someone will able to choose one of your ticket.
When you create new events, set “Maximum number of tickets allowed per order for this event:” to 1 and publish your events.

Thank’s Robby 🙂

Here is a quick example of how that will work, with the editor you’ll have 2 tickets – http://take.ms/BRtT4

‘Maximum number of tickets allowed per order for this event’ is set to 1.

On the front end the ticket selector will change to a radio button and only allow selection of 1 ticket – http://take.ms/kbPbi

Is that what you are looking for?

Thanks very much for the tip!

It did work… but just for the first time. So if someone goes back to the event page, they can book again… and again!

Is there way to put up a message like “You have already booked 1 ticket (Maximum 1 ticket per person)”

I already have user registration and tickets are only available for registered users… What would be the best way to get this to work?

Hello,

Event Espresso does not have have an option to restrict registrations for certain events. You could check with an Event Espresso professional here for adding this functionality:

Hi Lorenzo,

For some reason most of your replies leads to ‘Please see a professional developer’….LOL

Actually I have already achieved restricting registrations for certain events through the use of MemberPress plugin, so this part is OK.

Thing is Event Espresso saves to the database and Im sure there is a way for it to see how many tickets a user has booked, and if a user has booked 1 ticket it should not allow the booking of additional tickets.

Hope there is a way to achieve this with the options already available in EE4… please let me know…. or maybe someone out there has any tips on this….

Many thanks

Thanks for the feedback. I recommend contacting an Event Espresso professional when custom coding will be needed.

Our team is flexible and we try to provide a starting point where possible, however writing a custom solution is outside of the scope of support that we provide.

I’m sorry that you didn’t find my reply to your prior support post helpful and it may not have been the answer that you were looking for but I was honest about where we currently were regarding our seating chart.

What about if you use wp-user-integration, so if the one already registered, he/she cannot register anymore.. one email address only one events. CMIIW

Yes you are right. Thats exactly the idea.

Now just need know how to do it. I already have user integration installed… maybe there is an easy way to do it like how Robby suggested… maybe the option is there somewhere and I’m not seeing it?

@lorenzo – thanks for your help so far. any input is highly appreciated.
