webma_clip0263.png
Pre-defined periods tickets

Pre-defined periods appear as a button in the search and filter options of the events.

webma_clip0301.png

In this way, the user can call up the events within the period in question by simply clicking on the button, without having to fill in the dates himself.

In order to set up a pre-defined period, you have to click on Edit in the table:

webma_clip0264.png

This allows you to fill in the name, determine if the period button has to be visible or not, and fill in the desired start and end date of the period.

webma_clip0265.png

After defining a period, you have to save it by clicking on Save.

General settings

Module active

This setting determines if the module in question is available or not (visualised as a tab) on the Recreatex Webshop.

In this way, different modules can be offered per Webshop (if different Webshops are created for a certain Recreatex database).

Anonymous access

This option allows website users to access this module without having to log in. In this way, users that do not have a user account can also consult the module.

Warning

  • If a user that has not logged in wants to add an item to the shopping basket or wants to make an order/booking, the system will ask him/her to log in anyway (if required by creating a new account!)

  • If anonymous access is not allowed, the tab of this module will not be visible to users that have not logged in.

Navigate to shopping cart after adding

This setting is active by default and makes sure that the Webshop automatically navigates to the shopping basket after clicking on the button In shopping cart.

If this option is deactivated, the system will return to the previous overview after an order/booking. In this case, the user can navigate to the shopping basket himself to finalise the order.

Disable remarks

Activate this option if you want to deactivate the question to fill in any remarks (while ordering tickets).

webma_clip0302.png

Use single tickets/ticket

membership

These two parameters are deactivated by default and only single tickets (events) will be visualised on the Webshop (no ticketing membership).

  • If only Use single tickets is active, this will result in the same situation.

  • If only Use ticket membership is active, only ticketing memberships will be visualised.

  • If both parameters are active, the user will be able to choose between single events and ticketing memberships when surfing to the module Tickets.

webma_clip0303.png

Select price ranges up front

This option allows website users to select price groups up front while ordering tickets.

webma_clip0487.png

Thereafter, when the user makes the seat selection, Webshop automatically applies the price groups for the selected seats.

webma_clip0488.png

The user can, of course, modify the auto-filled price groups.

Note

This setting can only be activated when the setting Use ticketing membership is also activated.

Show extra info (price, occupancy, venue) on detail page

If this option is active, the information regarding price groups, occupancy and venue will be shown on the detail page of the selected event.  

webma_clip0312.png

Use culture series

Activate this option to enable the visualisation of event series on the Webshop.

webma_clip0304.png

Note

When a customer books an event series, he/she essentially books tickets for all the events in the series.

  • Overview settings

webma_clip0267.png

This is the initial period in which activities will be called up when surfing to the module Ticketing.

webma_clip0305.png

  • Today

  • This week

  • This year

  • Today + 1 week

  • Today + 1 month

  • Today + 6 months

  • Today + 1 year

webma_clip0268.png

Price display

This option allows you to determine which price has to be visualised in the overview of ticketing events:

  • Display minimum price

  • Display maximum price

  • Hide price

This may for example be useful if different tariffs apply for events.

Visualisation occupancy

More flexible visualisation of the occupancy of ticketing events.

webma_clip0269.png

Detailed: this is the already existing way. This visualisation shows the number of remaining seats vs. the total number of seats.

webma_clip0306.png

Colour indication: a coloured ball gives an indication of the occupancy.

o

0-25% = Green (a lot of places left)

o

25-75% = Orange Yellow (the activity is starting to fill up)

o

>75% = Red (almost full)

o

100% = Black (full)

webma_clip0307.png

No visualisation: no occupancy information is shown.

webma_clip0308.png

Default sorting

This parameter allows you to define the default sort order of the ticketing events.

In this case, the ticketing events will initially be sorted according to this setting. The user can of course always select his/her preferential sort order when searching for events.

Visualisation filter
webma_clip0270.png

In the part Visualisation filter, the behaviour and content of the search and filter options can be set up.

You can, for example, determine if the search and filter options have to be expanded by default (and thus be visible) when a customer opens the module, and which options are available for the user to search for the desired events.

Immediately open filter

If active, the section with search and filter options will immediately be expanded when the customer enters the module Tickets.

Ask period

With this option, it is possible to look for events on the basis of the planned period.

webma_clip0309.png

Ask category

With this option, it is possible to look for events on the basis of category.

webma_clip0310.png

Ask activity

With this option, it is possible to look for events on the basis of activity type.

webma_clip0311.png
Order settings
webma_clip0271.png

Minimum number of different events in basket before checkout is possible

This option allows you to define a minimum number of different events that have to be booked before the online order can effectively be placed.

if this minimal number is not reached at checkout, a specific message will appear, for example:

webma_clip0314.png

If you fill in 0, this parameter will not be taken into account.

Price obligatory

This option is deactivated by default, allowing the customer to book events for free if no price has been entered in Recreatex.

If this option is ticked off, it will no longer be possible to make free bookings for events for which no price has been specified in Recreatex.

User can have tickets sent

If this parameter is used, the user will be able to have the booked tickets sent physically as well.

webma_clip0313.png

Note

For this purpose, the system of shipping costs has to be activated in the Recreatex ticketing parameters.

webman_0385.png

Sent minimum days ahead

This setting is entirely in function of shipping costs (sending tickets) and determines the required minimum number of days between the booking and the event date, as of which date it will no longer be possible to have the tickets sent. This is necessary to be sure that the customer will receive the tickets before the event.

Row display

It is possible to determine the visualisation of row code or row description when the Webshop user selects a seat on the venue plan.

webma_clip0315.png
History settings
webma_clip0272.png

Show tickets in history 'My Tickets'  

This option allows you to determine that the user can call up (and if required reprint) his/her ordered e-Tickets in History and overviews (My tickets).

Show confirmation in history 'My Tickets'

This setting determines if the booking certificate is available or not for the user under History and overviews.

Show overview 'To be paid' in history

Activating this option results in an additional overview To be paid in the history of My tickets. In this way, the logged-in user will be able to pay for booked but not yet paid ticketing bookings on the Webshop. Further processing is, as always, done in the shopping basket.

webma_clip0316.png
Messages
webma_clip0273.png

If the setting Warn when seats can not be kept together by BAS without visualisation venue plan is active, an extra message will appear if the seats that have been assigned by BAS could not be kept together (only if on the event level, tab Web it has been defined that the venue plan does not have to be visualised).

E-mail notification
WebMan_Activities_Email.png

As is the case with general notification e-mails (to be set up under General > Settings > E-mail messages) the e-mail address that is filled in here, is the addressee of the internal service, that will receive the copy of the e-mail sent to the customer. By filling in a deviating e-mail address per module, however, it is possible to make the addressee of the order confirmation (e-mail) dependent on the module in which the order was placed. In this way, orders of module X can be sent to service X, of module Y to service Y, etc.

Donation settings

If a donation amount is defined for the chosen price group, the user will be able to donate an extra amount when making a booking.

webma_clip0274.png

Tick off donation by default

If this setting is active, the option to donate will be selected by default and the donation amount will automatically be added to the booking when selecting a price group.

The user can, of course, choose to de-select the option and the donation amount will be removed.  

webma_clip0380.png

Note

For this purpose, the option Donations active must be activated from the Ticketing parameters in the Recreatex Desktop Application (Ticketing > Parameters > tab General).

Moreover, the donation amount must be entered for each price group. For this, go to Event details > tab Prices. Select a price group and enter the donation amount.

webma_clip0085.png

Donation

Specific text relating to donation can be filled in per language.

webma_clip0381.png
Introductory text module
webma_clip0223.png

It is possible to fill in an introductory text per Webshop module. As is the case with the general welcoming and introductory text, HTML is supported for the creation of the introduction per module and the text can be translated if you wish so. The introductory text is always visualised at the top of the module's primary page.

Always save the new settings by clicking on the button Save.
