Ticket Types - limit the total of a sinle booking

Hi

We a using event booking plugin and it work great. Now I'm hoping to use the ticket types function.
For a booking the total tickets is 10 for example
I see you have a limit per booking for each ticket type.
What we need is to check that the sum of different event types total does not exceed an overall booking total.


For example:
If
Total for a booking = 10.
Ticket Type A quantity = 8
Ticket Type B quantity = 3
Fail because 8+3>10

Would this be possible?

Yes Alan. You just need to;

1. Set Capacity of the event to 10

2. Go to Events Booking -> Configuration, look at Themes tab, set Calculate Number Registrants Based on Tickets Quantity config option to Yes

Then check it again, it should work as expected

Regards,

Tuan

Hi Thanks for the quick reply.
I need slight difference. This is for a tour booking that runs multiple times and is set up as a single event. So the event runs forever and people just select a time slot.
The "capacity" for a single booking would have to based just on the Ticket A quantiy + Ticket B quantiy.
(The over all event capacity does apply)

Is that possible?
If needs be I could add custom javascript to check the select boxes ticket_type_quantity onchange
Thanks for your help.

Hi Alan

If so, that's not supported, sorry. You will need to customize the code yourself to implement this validation

Using javascript onchange is not enough, you should implement validation using server side validation (PHP code)

Look at components/com_eventbooking/controller/register.php, method validateTickets and try to customize it to meet your need

Hi Tuan,
Thats okay, it's a great plugin and cant e expected to do everthing. I'll make the server side validation. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

OK Alan.Remember to implement the modification as override so that it won't be lost when you update to future releases of the extension. See eventbookingdoc.joomservices.com/develop...hod-in-a-model-class for our documentation
