Events Booking buying a Membership Pro plan

How can we implement the following for our club:New public person sees our Introductory Course in Events Booking. They sign up for the event and pay the fee via PayPal. The event also comes with 3 months Probationary membership to the club.Is it possible for the Events Booking event to sign them up for the 3 months probationary membership in Membership Pro?ThanksRob

Not sure if there is anything in EB. However, you could use the 'User - Membership Pro' plugin where any user who registers on your site could be automatically be assigned to a Membership Pro Plan. However, this would apply to all your users who register, not just the ones who sign up for an event. So this might not work for you.

Hello Rob

That would require developing a plugin to allow integrating Events Booking with Membership Pro. Basically, it should allow you when add/edit an event, you can choose a subscription plan in Membership Pro and if users register for that event, they will be subscribed automatically to the configured plan

Thanks David we did look at that but as you have mentioned it is an ALL feature, not a choice feature. Unfortunately not what is required. Cheers Rob

Hi Tuan,

I have seen other forum requests that are similar, has anyone else asked for this requirement? Have you considered it before?

I think that it would have many uses, from people attending an event and being signed up for the scientific journal of the event spokes person for a set time period, with an opt in to continue to receive for a nominated fee as a permanent membership plan.

Or as we are using it, a training event, get a free 3mth membership, they like what they try and want to join the club and continue to learn the skill further with an upgrade to a full time membership plan.

Thanks
Rob

Hi Rob

To be honest, I do not remember about it. I guess it could be useful for some customers who use both Membership Pro and Events Booking on the site, but not many customers

I will consider supporting it in next release

I could see this working for various types of businesses:
Gym
Yoga studio
Archery Club
Cooking Classes

People sign up for a course or session, get another short membership free eg 2 weeks, month etc with option to upgrade in the free membership to a full time membership.

I am sure others could name more that this would work with.

Thanks
Rob

Hi Rob,
I think your question also throws up a bigger question for Tuan and Joomdonation Team is: should there be closer integration between Events Booking and Membership pro.
I don't know how many EB customers are also MP customers.  We certainly are , and we closely integrate Membership with discounts on our events. We have put some extra coding in (with the help of Tuan) to more closely integrate.
It would be interesting to here what other customers would like about a closer integration of the 2 products
Kind regards
David

HI David,

Agree, we are trying to have a one stop for products where possible so a relationship with the vendor (Hi Tuan and Co.) can be made and support in both directions can occur. To build products that work smoother and have good flexibility.
Integration between the products that this team has created is integral to that future.

Regards
Rob

David and Tuan,

I am going to copy our conversations over to the Features Wish List and create an item there. Please add additional thoughts there.

Thank you
Rob
