Premium 'Featured' Events

Hello, I’m developing a site which will allow users to upload their own events – without being logged in. The user fills in a form: event name, date/time, their name, their details etc. I’d like to have a ‘featured event’ tick box which if the user ticks this box, sends them to a payment gateway to pay a fee. Then, in the backend an Admin moderates the events before they are published on the site.

Is this something your plugin can do? I appreciate it would take a bit of modding, but I’m not adverse to getting my hands dirty!

We do have a front end event manager which allows logged in users to create events, although it does publish them immediately. You could probably modify it to create the events with a default status of ‘draft’. I would think if you didn’t require the user to be logged in that you are going to have a lot of problems with spam. We do have recaptcha available on the registration form, so you could probably copy that code into the front-end event manager, if you really wanted to. I’m not sure about the payment gateway redirect for featured events. I think that would take a fairly substantial rewrite.
