Hi Gary,

One way to do this would be to write some custom jQuery to change the value in the *first quantity select box* to make it 1.

You can try something along the lines of this:

jQuery(document).ready(function(){
    jQuery('.price_id').first().find('option').remove().end().append('<option selected="selected" value="1">1</option>').val(1);
    jQuery('.price_id').last().find('option:last').remove();
    jQuery('#event_espresso_refresh_total').trigger('click');
});

The other option you can look into is using the Volume Discounts add-on. It will let you discount the entire cart when it meets a specific threshold (in this case two or more registrations will kick in the discount). It’s different in that the discount would apply to all the tickets, so the discount amount would need to be factored accordingly.

Hi Gary,

Volume Discounts is still in pre release, so you will need to sign up to the channel to get access to it, please see here – https://eventespresso.com/wiki/pre-release-channel-guide/

Alos here is the volume discount docs https://eventespresso.com/wiki/volume-discount-add-on/

Hi,

The easiest place would be in the template file, so shopping_cart.php, in between script tags. Be careful not to add it to a place where there is PHP. The bottom of the file is usually ok, but make sure if there is PHP that there is a closing PHP tag – example http://d.pr/i/sSBH

<script>
jQuery(document).ready(function(){
    jQuery('.price_id').first().find('option').remove().end().append('<option selected="selected" value="1">1</option>').val(1);
    jQuery('.price_id').last().find('option:last').remove();
    jQuery('#event_espresso_refresh_total').trigger('click');
});
</script>

You could also create a small plugin to add the javascript, or add the javascript to a .js file and call that from the template.

Hi Gary,

Not at this time. They would have to register an individual to use a free promo code. It’s a good idea though. I’ve registered your suggestion and we will keep it in mind for future features and updates!

We don’t have a private event status built in, but you can do it with categories. Create a category called “public” and attach that category to all your events except the private one. For the public listing of events on your site use the [EVENT_LIST category_identifier=your_category_identifier] shortcode (use the category identifier for your “public” category. Do the same for your calendar shortcode.
