I am in need of answers pretty quickly if at all possible.
1. I own a tour bus business and am in the need for when people pay for a spot on the tour bus for that day, that they are sent an email with a "ticket" they can print along with what they purchased. There will be 6 tours every day, but all the tickets will be the same. Basically, is it possible to send them an "Image" of a ticket that they can print out, with directions telling them to print the ticket out and bring it with them, as well as where they need to go to meet the tour bus? Is this possible?
2. What is the difference between Paypal Standard and Paypal Pro?
3. Is it possible to print out a list of who will be attending the tour for that day? So a list for the people attedning the 7AM tour, a list for the 9AM tour, a list for the 11AM tour etc all in one print out?
4. What is needed to use the FirstData payment gateway as well? Like what kind of information do I need to have to make this plugin work?
5. Is it possible for when a family registers so they don't have to enter each persons information. So say I have a family of 5 that want to go on the tour. They would pick "Group registration", and take up 5 spots. The ticket would be $20 a piece, so they would owe $100. But now they have to enter each persons information. Is it possible for them to enter 1 persons name like "The Jones Family" for the name and click "Same as first member" for the other 4, instead of having to enter each person's information?
6. Is it possible to have like Senior discount codes, and half price discounts for children etc? So say an adult ticket is $20 and a kids ticket is $10. So they can pick one ticket for themselves (Adult at $20) and then one ticket for the same event at $10 (Child) and if they are seniors they could have an option to pick a seniors discount or even just add a discount code one for a child's ticket and one for a senior citizen?
I have 4 other websites I will be needing this extension for, so if this works I will be needing to buy 5 extensions. I hope to get an answer quickly! Thank you so much.

I am sorry for lately response. It is holiday in our country these days (I will come back to normal work on Tuesday). Here are my answers to your questions :
1. I own a tour bus business and am in the need for when people pay for a spot on the tour bus for that day, that they are sent an email with a "ticket" they can print along with what they purchased. There will be 6 tours every day, but all the tickets will be the same. Basically, is it possible to send them an "Image" of a ticket that they can print out, with directions telling them to print the ticket out and bring it with them, as well as where they need to go to meet the tour bus? Is this possible?
=> After users complete payment, there will be a conform email send to them. The content of this email can be confiruable from back-end (using HTML editor to modify it). You can insert Image into the message using HTML editor, so basically, the answer for this question is Yes .
2. What is the difference between Paypal Standard and Paypal Pro?
=> With Paypal Standard, users will need to be redirected to Paypal to process payment. With Paypal Pro, users will be able to enter credit card information directly on your site to process payment (Paypal charge 30$/month in order to have Paypal Pro) .
3. Is it possible to print out a list of who will be attending the tour for that day? So a list for the people attedning the 7AM tour, a list for the 9AM tour, a list for the 11AM tour etc all in one print out?
=>You can export list of attendee for an event into CSV and view it in MS Office program. I think MS Excell allows you to print it, so the answer is Yes .
4. What is needed to use the FirstData payment gateway as well? Like what kind of information do I need to have to make this plugin work?
=> You will need to have a FirstData account, install First Data payment plugin, enter the merchant account information from back-end of the extension .
5. Is it possible for when a family registers so they don't have to enter each persons information. So say I have a family of 5 that want to go on the tour. They would pick "Group registration", and take up 5 spots. The ticket would be $20 a piece, so they would owe $100. But now they have to enter each persons information. Is it possible for them to enter 1 persons name like "The Jones Family" for the name and click "Same as first member" for the other 4, instead of having to enter each person's information?
=> Basically, It is not possible. Right now, users will need to enter information of each person (the fields you want to collect can be configurable from back0end).
6. Is it possible to have like Senior discount codes, and half price discounts for children etc? So say an adult ticket is $20 and a kids ticket is $10. So they can pick one ticket for themselves (Adult at $20) and then one ticket for the same event at $10 (Child) and if they are seniors they could have an option to pick a seniors discount or even just add a discount code one for a child's ticket and one for a senior citizen?
=> It is possible but you will need to configurable it (under custom fee fields feature). Have a look at joomdonation.com/index.php?option=com_co...icle&id=80&Itemid=72 , looks at How to use Fee Field feature in Event Booking section .

Tuan
