Hi guys,

i am about to purchase the premium version for a race event, therefor i have some prior questions.

1.) Can i ad a new payment gateway? Do you provide the support to do so? “One Pay” gateway
2.) would it be possible to provide a race number for each registration?
3.) Is it possible to provide special events only to people who registered already to a event?
4.) Is there any demo, where i can see how offline payment works with EE?
5.) Can i set different salesperson accounts for manual registration? We would like to sell tickets also offline and it would be good to have separate registration accounts for our sales team.

would be great if i could receive a quick answer on my questions.

thanks

Hi,

1.) Can i ad a new payment gateway? Do you provide the support to do so? “One Pay” gateway

Yes, we provide documentation on how to add your own gateway, or you can sponsor the addition of a new gateway for around $1000.00

2.) would it be possible to provide a race number for each registration?

Not by default. However, we provide an auto-generated registration id, that can be customized adding a custom hook within your theme/functions.php file.

3.) Is it possible to provide special events only to people who registered already to a event?

Sorry, we don’t have that type of functionality at this time. However, I am sure something like that can be custom coded by a third party developer or an Event Espresso Pro.

4.) Is there any demo, where i can see how offline payment works with EE?

Yes, you can see how this works by registering for an event using our testdrive website: https://eventespresso.com/testdrive/

5.) Can i set different salesperson accounts for manual registration? We would like to sell tickets also offline and it would be good to have separate registration accounts for our sales team.

Using our Roles and Permissions addon, you can allow registered users of your website to administer events and attendees.

Hi Seth!

thanks for your reply.

1.) is it possible for a hobby coder to get through your documentation and ad a new gateway or does it need professional coding skill?

2.) Do you mean that we basically can change your registration ID and use as our race number?

5.) Is this Roles and Permission function you meant, already included in the Business package? as i see there is just a BASIC R&P version included. We will have several locations were would like to sell registrations OFFLINE. So we just want to have accounts/roles for a group of sales person to work with your MANUAL REGISTRATION function. So we have a kind of log for each sale person.

furthermore question, our site will be bilingual. Is there any recommendation from your site which plugin works best with EE? i am hesitating to get WPML but need to check if it works with EE and our template.

cheers

Hi,

1) A hobby coder *might* be ok with it, but it depends on the level of skill of course, as such it is really hard to answer this.

2) Yes, the custom function that is available will allow you to modify the registration ID to a format of your choosing, some PHP knowledge will be required.

5) The Roles & Permissions (R&P) plugins have slightly different functionality. R&P Basic allows you to add an Event Admin, which basically has full access to Event Espresso related screens. R&P Pro builds upon that and allows an Event Manager and Regional Manager that have different access levels.

If the users who will be arranging the offline registrations need access to all of the events, then the Basic version is fine, however if you need them limited to only events that they themselves have created, then the Pro version would be better.

Regarding bilingual, the plugin is fully translatable, but we do not offer support for multi languages. That being said, several users have successfully translated the plugin into a dual language system.

One aspect that will cause a problem is whatever plugin you use for the translation, must not affect the url, which WPML does by default. I believe there is an option to switch it to using subdirectories instead of the url modifier, but I have never tested it.

You may also want to consider qTranslate as an alternative.

I would also suggest taking the plugin for a Test Drive, either by purchasing the full test drive we offer (good to test out R&P) or using the Lite version (a free way to test out the qTranslate).
