Hi,
A barcode or Qr code reader would be perfect for event check in registration. This is at the moment (in my view) the biggest feature lack of your otherwise so good component.
I have no experience of using Barcode or QR code so i cannot say wich one is the most reliable option, guess i would be happy with any of them.
Making it work with a free app for smartphone would be perfect.
When do you think we can see this feature in "Event Booking"?

Regards
Mats

I used this for a site

Code:

<img src='https://chart.googleapis.com/chart?chs=150x150&cht=qr&chl=http://www.umsiko.com/".htmlSafeOutput($bmeMemId)."'>

in your case you would use

Code:

<img src='https://chart.googleapis.com/chart?chs=150x150&cht=qr&chl=UrlGoesHere'>

It will even display when you just go straight to the URL
chart.googleapis.com/chart?chs=150x150&c...ttp://www.umsiko.com

I got the QR code working for the Ticket Submission. Email sent and viewed online

It is generating a QR code for the TRANSACTION ID - which the clients would use for payment offline methods and the staff would scan and use as delegate reference for attendance

DOMAINAME/components/com_eventbooking/emailtemplates/individual_detail.php
DOMAINAME/components/com_eventbooking/emailtemplates/email_individual_detail.php

Code:

<img src="https://chart.googleapis.com/chart?chs=200x200&cht=qr&chl=<?php echo $row->transaction_id ; ?>">

Great Idea Tuan

Customer books ferry ticket online, copy sent to ferry operator server, customer presents barcode as ticket, ferry operator checks for matching barcode ...Done !

If you use a QR code that contains a URL linking to an Event Booking "front-end Registrant Check-In plugin", that should negate the need for a customized smartphone scanner app (just use any qr-code-reading barcode app) and be platform independent (would work on iOS, Android, etc., unlike some of the iOS-only apps that others mentioned in this thread) . Set it up to allow only a registered user with proper permissions to access the Check-In, and it should work for every scan (after an initial login by that user on the first scan, that is).
URL would be something like MYSITE.COM/index.php?option=com_eventboo...&task=checkin$txnID= [registrantTxnId]

Is there any update on that? There is a PDF invoice template, and I am sure a QR image could be implemented, but I would be interested to know if you plan to build it anyway, Tuan.

Hi

This is already supported in the extension. See eventbookingdoc.joomservices.com/advanced-features/check-in-registrants and eventbookingdoc.joomservices.com/advanced-features/tickets-pdf

There is an additional method for checkin registrants using iCODY Mobile APP which I haven't documented yet (best method for checkin registrants, I think)

Regards,

Tuan
