Recurring Event Support for Tickets

Currently our WooTickets plugin does not work fully with recurring events, and users can only purchase tickets for the most upcoming event in a series. Would it be useful to you to combine the power of WooTickets with the PRO recurring events feature?

We’re continuing our work on a huge revamp of recurring events that would pave the way for recurring tickets. Additionally we’re working on backend improvements to tickets to support this kind of complicated functionality. Please continue to share your use cases in comments so we can strategize the scope of this long-awaited feature.

We really appreciate the tremendous of support this feature request has received. What is important to y’all is what guides our roadmap. Your feedback on this feature request has actually driven us to completely re-architect much of our plugins over the past couple of years.

This is a truly herculean feature request. While designing the user interface is simple, it requires many developers and many months worth of time get things in place for that simple interface to work. We have already devoted hundreds of hours of time to this, and still have many more to go.

Our next feature release will contain a lot more architecture improvements, and will put us many miles closer to the finish line. There are likely to be a few more similar releases in the coming months before this is truly complete.

In an effort to not mislead folks we are marking this with a new status called “longterm roadmap”. While work on this feature is started and has been for some time, it is easy to misinterpret that status as meaning “coming in our next release”. Thus we wanted to more accurately convey when it will come about.

Thank you all so much for your continued feedback and understanding.

Cheers,
- The Modern Tribe Support Team

We’re still working on this feature but it has admittedly been tougher to build than we has expected. While we are unable to get it into our next major release, Event Tickets Plus 4.4, we are still committed to this and hoping to get into one of the upcoming major releases instead.

Cheers,

Would love to have ability to sell tickets for recurring events individually using Event Calendar Pro and Event Tickets! If we have a class that happens every Monday, would be awesome to just create one recurring event!

Please add this feature. It's really a deal breaker in an otherwise outstanding piece of software.

For use case of weekly recurring events at same time frame for same set price and set #guests (cat yoga and cat cafe lounge visits). If possible to provide an export csv file that mimics the Ticket Import File using the event data such as follows below, it can hopefully provide unique ticket data per event that we can then just add the Ticket Price and Ticket Stock data, break the series to single events and then import the csv file. Export File to include Slug = [slug], TicketName = [EventStartDate][EventName][EventStartTime][EventEndTime], TicketDescription = [EventTitle] or [EventExcerpt], TicketStartSaleDate = [maybe default to 2 months prior to earliest start date in series], TicketStartSale = 1:00 AM, TicketEndSaleDate = [blank], TicketEndSaleTime=[blank], TicketPrice= 0.00, TicketStock =0, TicketSKU = [recurringeventid][incrementalnumber][EventStartDate][EventStartTime][EventEndTime]

A simple button that allows extras to be added to a ticket booking, you could use a similar function to the fieldsets for population. Each addition will need an extra cost function.
We organise events where there are always additional nights for a low cost.

like my previous poster:

if this feature is likely to be available soon I can use Events Calendar. If not, I'd need to look for something else. Please could you post an update?

We have events that recur on irregular dates and times. Currently we set up one event with multiple dates and multiple ticket options that correspond to each date. This means whatever 'date' the customer is looking at from the event calendar, all of the tickets are visible. It would be clearer for the customer if only the relevant ticket was displayed, but this would mean setting up each event separately, very time consuming. Why isn't possible to duplicate the event and then change the date and ticket information?

I run and sell tickets to repeat courses that have irregular (Once) dates, as well as free weekly events that I would like people to acquire tickets for. Breaking events from the series so Event Ticket Pro can be used to sell tickets defeats the purpose of recurring events. So please, please, please devlop this functionality so I can seamlessly sell tickets to my recurring events.

I thought this was standard, any ETA when support will be implemented?
