Events Beta Feedback

When both Donation Amount and Event Tickets are available on the same form, there should be a tag related to the ticket that can be added to the donation Donation Receipt Email and PDF Receipt.

As a site owner I'd like to have Events for Peer to Peer sign-ups for Fundraisers.

In the form builder, it won't let me save a donation form without a Donation Amount field included. Ideally, there should be an option where the Event Ticket price is the donation fee. Right now, then the Event Ticket price has to be free in my case, and the Donation Amount is the Ticket price.

The ticket sales allows for multiple tickets types. That is great. But we also sell tables (which may be 8 or 10 per table). The total capacity will be the sum of individual tickets plus tables x seats per table. We can get to the total either way, so the overall seating limit is the sum of both and is not known before hand. So if we had a total capacity tracker that reflected this instead of the individual, that would be very useful Alternatively the ability to hide the count would be good in the form builder, and we can determine when we are sold out offline. Also if we sold different levels of tickets (gold, silver etc) at different prices, again these just count against the total capacity. A plus would be a table assignment and meal field for guests to aid in planning on the guest list report that we could manually edit. If there is a fair market value we want to identify that and let people know in the receipt. That would be the non deductible portion of the donation. Last, we would want to be able to send a custom receipt for ticket sales and donations. This may already be possible, but not sure.

When adding descriptions to the tickets, if the description exceeds 60 characters, the box indicating total number of tickets gets "pushed" out of alignment. If the description text is too long, the box for number of tickets is pushed outside of the donation form and is no longer visible. Steps to replicate: Create an Event with Event Tickets Block Beta Add Tickets Add descriptions consisting of more than 60 characters. Create a donation form using the Visual Form Builder Add the Event Tickets Block to the form. Display via preview/Shortcode/Block

Currently the Capacity field can't be left empty, so it's not possible to have unlimited capacity.

The donation summary should really say "Payment" summary in the context of selling event tickets; and likewise, the title for the Stripe Gateway should also be customizable, depending on context. I couldn't find a way to change either. There was a way to change the text on the "Donate Now" button to "Pay Now."

The quantity field for the number of tickets can only be changed with the + or - symbols. This can be frustrating when a lot of tickets are required: to purchase 99 tickets the donor/purchaser is required to press the + symbol 98 times. If all the tickets are accidentally chosen, then the following issue comes into play: https://feedback.givewp.com/events-beta-feedback/p/choose-all-remaining-tickets-doesnt-allow-you-to-decrease-the-ticket-amount-befo

Current we could set inventory to 9999 and hide the inventory counts with css, but that's a bit hacky to have to do every time. We also typically see a mix of inventory tracked tickets and add on items like Journal Ads that don't have any qty limit.

Sell "Tables" that decrease from a global event inventory number. 1 Ticket would decrease global inventory by 1. 1 Table would decrease global inventory by 10 (or whatever you set it to). The event being sold out would be determined by the total of both instead of per-line inventory. I know this is much more complicated than inventory per ticket type, but I think this would be very useful for the non-profit specific user base of GiveWP. Example: I have a room with a capacity of 200 and we're selling single tickets for $500 and tables of 10 for $4000 - we could sell 1 table and 190 tix, 10 tables and 100 single tix, etc. Putting an inventory cap on either line item risks turning away sales before the room is actually at capacity. No inventory cap risks overselling the event.
