Event website ... possible?

[Fowley]

Hi everyone,

I'm only on my second site with Actinic, so apologies for my lack of knowledge.

I've searched the forum but can't seem to find a specific answer to these questions (not that is less than 3 yrs old anyway)

I've been asked to build a website that a client can use to sell tickets to 10 different events. These events run for most of the year.

The client imagines the process as this:

Customer selects event >
chooses date from a calendar >
price is displayed (price is date specific, i.e off-season = cheaper) >
selects number of tickets >
completes payment >
e-Ticket is automatically emailed to them with a unique ID number.

So I guess the questions are:

1: Is there a calendar function in Actinic that will allow you to do this, and also set different prices for different times of year.

2: Can Actinic generate e-tickets (vouchers) that have an automatically generated ID number and email them to teh customer (or even email them a link for download)

If Actinic can't do this, maybe there are some plugins? Has anyone seen a similar site made in Actinic?

Thanks in advance for any help / advice.

no, all you can do is create a product for each event

2: Can Actinic generate e-tickets (vouchers) that have an automatically generated ID number and email them to teh customer (or even email them a link for download)

actinic will generate an email with an order number, or you can use digital download

If Actinic can't do this, maybe there are some plugins? Has anyone seen a similar site made in Actinic?

not that i am aware of, i'd look at other packages before progressing with actinic

Ok - that's kind of what I figured, but I just wanted to double check, before I started looking elsewhere..

Thanks for your help.
