Specific questions about EE4 Everything Purchase, for MultiLingual project

Hi Support Team.
I have a multilingual seminar being held in Russia in just less than 3 months. Up to now we have managed with an excel spreadsheet, and PayPal buttons used through 2 different websites.
My questions are as follows with regards to EE4 Everything purchase.
– will I be able to swap on the go between Russian, English and possibly Turkish – on all forms on the website?
– Does EE4 Everything give me the ability to print tickets on the fly (at the event) and also before the event?
– Can I use iPhones and iPads to register attendees?
– Likewise can I use the same devices to check attendees on Entry to the event
– Again, does EE4 have the ability to provide me with entry and exit of attendees? (I need some way to make sure they are in the event for a specific amount of time, and would possibly need reporting of attendance…)
– Do you have any plans to integrate with GetResponse in the future?
– Does your payments gateway function ok in Russia (has this been tested)
– Is there the ability to print out receipts for those who want them?
– Can tickets include photos, and does EE4 have ability to take photos on the fly at registration to include them to an attendees profile?
– Is the implementation in WordPress based on plugin only or does it include shortcodes?
On the initial discovery of EE4 and checking it our very briefly, it looks to be an ideal solution for me. Apologies if these questions might have been asked in other supper forum questions before me.
Thank you for your help!

Hi CraigK,

Thank you for considering Event Espresso, how are you today?

– will I be able to swap on the go between Russian, English and possibly Turkish – on all forms on the website?

Currently Event Espresso does not officially support multi language sites, you can translate EE to multiple languages, but only a single language can be selected at once.

– Does EE4 Everything give me the ability to print tickets on the fly (at the event) and also before the event?

Each registration creates a ticket, the Admin can download individual tickets at any time. The ticket is a PDF so can also be printed any time.

– Can I use iPhones and iPads to register attendees?

To register them onto the event or ‘check-in’ the registrant to show the attended the event?

– Likewise can I use the same devices to check attendees on Entry to the event

Yes you can although currently this would be done through a 3rd part app to scan the tickets, see here:

https://eventespresso.com/wiki/how-to-use-a-mobile-device-to-scan-ee4-tickets/

Or you can manually check-in registrants from the check-in list.

– Again, does EE4 have the ability to provide me with entry and exit of attendees? (I need some way to make sure they are in the event for a specific amount of time, and would possibly need reporting of attendance…)

It is possible to view when an attendee checked in and out of an event on a per checkin basis, there is currently no reporting of this in bulk.

– Do you have any plans to integrate with GetResponse in the future?

Currently we do not have any plans for a GetResponse integration. We currently integrate with MailChimp.

– Does your payments gateway function ok in Russia (has this been tested)

Which payment gateway are you looking to use? Event Espresso currently does not integrate with any Russian gateways directly that I am aware of, although Mijireh may support a gateway you can use (as we do integrate with Mijireh)

– Is there the ability to print out receipts for those who want them?

All registrations can download a receipt by default, or you can send them an email containing a link they can download the receipt from.

– Can tickets include photos, and does EE4 have ability to take photos on the fly at registration to include them to an attendees profile?

Yes tickets can include Photos although currently we do not provide an upload file feature within the registration form to include an image on registration.

– Is the implementation in WordPress based on plugin only or does it include shortcodes?

Can you expand on this further please? There are shortcodes available for EE4 however it depends on what you are looking to do.

I would recommend registering to Test Drive Event Espresso 4 so you can get a feel for how Event Espresso works. This will allow you to create an event, register and view the registrations from the admin.

If you have any further questions just let us know.

Ho Tonh.

Thanks for the info:

– will I be able to swap on the go between Russian, English and possibly Turkish – on all forms on the website?
Currently Event Espresso does not officially support multi language sites, you can translate EE to multiple languages, but only a single language can be selected at once.

– THANK YOU. DOES THE DB HANDLE MULTIPLE CHARACTER SETS WITHOUT ISSUE. IF I ENTER RUSSIAN NAMES, TURKISH NAMES AND ENGLISH NAMES WOULD THAT CAUSE AN ISSUE?

– Does EE4 Everything give me the ability to print tickets on the fly (at the event) and also before the event?
Each registration creates a ticket, the Admin can download individual tickets at any time. The ticket is a PDF so can also be printed any time.

– EXCELLENT.

– Can I use iPhones and iPads to register attendees?
To register them onto the event or ‘check-in’ the registrant to show the attended the event?

– MY BAD, I WILL GET A LAPTOP ON SITE TO HANDLE NEW REGISTRATIONS AT THE DOOR.

– Likewise can I use the same devices to check attendees on Entry to the event
Yes you can although currently this would be done through a 3rd part app to scan the tickets, see here:
https://eventespresso.com/wiki/how-to-use-a-mobile-device-to-scan-ee4-tickets/

– THANK YOU.

– Again, does EE4 have the ability to provide me with entry and exit of attendees? (I need some way to make sure they are in the event for a specific amount of time, and would possibly need reporting of attendance…)
It is possible to view when an attendee checked in and out of an event on a per checkin basis, there is currently no reporting of this in bulk.

– OK. I WILL LOOK INTO SOMEONE FROM THE COMPANY CREATING A REPORT FOR THIS (CUSTOM REPORTING AND MODS ETC).

– Do you have any plans to integrate with GetResponse in the future?
Currently we do not have any plans for a GetResponse integration. We currently integrate with MailChimp.

– THANKS.

– Does your payments gateway function ok in Russia (has this been tested)
Which payment gateway are you looking to use? Event Espresso currently does not integrate with any Russian gateways directly that I am aware of, although Mijireh may support a gateway you can use (as we do integrate with Mijireh)

– SOME CREDIT CARD TYPES IN RUSSIA ARE NOT ACCEPTED BY AMERICAN PAYPAL ACCOUNTS. THUS I WOULD NEED TO LOOK AT DIFFERENT OPTIONS, THUS THE QUESTION ABOUT THE GATEWAY USED. WILL CHECKOUT MIJIREH… THANK YOU

– Is there the ability to print out receipts for those who want them?
All registrations can download a receipt by default, or you can send them an email containing a link they can download the receipt from.

– EXCELLENT! THANK YOU.

– Can tickets include photos, and does EE4 have ability to take photos on the fly at registration to include them to an attendees profile?
Yes tickets can include Photos although currently we do not provide an upload file feature within the registration form to include an image on registration.

– THANK YOU. MIGHT REQUEST THIS TO YOUR DEV TEAM IF I PURCHASE, AS A FUTURE OPTION.

– Is the implementation in WordPress based on plugin only or does it include shortcodes?
Can you expand on this further please? There are shortcodes available for EE4 however it depends on what you are looking to do.

– SOME PLUGINS I HAVE LOOKED AT GIVE LIMITED SHORT CODE USAGE. IF YOU HAVE SHORT CODES THAT I CAN USE WITHIN MY SOURCE CODE, I AM HAPPY…

I would recommend registering to Test Drive Event Espresso 4 so you can get a feel for how Event Espresso works. This will allow you to create an event, register and view the registrations from the admin.
If you have any further questions just let us know.

Thanks for the help on this.

As long as you are using UTF charsets there shouldn’t be any issues.

– MY BAD, I WILL GET A LAPTOP ON SITE TO HANDLE NEW REGISTRATIONS AT THE DOOR.

You do not need a laptop at the door, although it would likely be a little easier. You can place registrations onto the event using an mobile/tablet, it just may be easier with a laptop.

– SOME PLUGINS I HAVE LOOKED AT GIVE LIMITED SHORT CODE USAGE. IF YOU HAVE SHORT CODES THAT I CAN USE WITHIN MY SOURCE CODE, I AM HAPPY…

Ah ok, we do have some shortcode functionality, but it too may be considered limited. It depends on exactly what you want to achieve, if you can provide further details we can answer this with greater detail.

Any other questions just let us know.
