Add a Booking System

 With Modern Events Calendar, you can effortlessly manage ticket service and registration forms. Customizing your own form and integrating a booking system to gather essential information prior to processing payments has never been easier.

How to Add a Booking System to MEC?

First, you need to enable the booking module (Click here for more information about MEC booking settings).

Go to WordPress Dashboard > M.E. Calendar > Settings > Booking > Basic and click on the “Enable booking module” checkbox and save changes. Now, after refreshing the page, you will be able to see the menus related to the booking system.

By refreshing this page, you will see three new sections: Booking Form and Payment Gateways in settings and Bookings in the dashboard menu just under the M.E. Calendar menu.

Booking Form

In MEC Settings > Booking > Booking Form, you can add custom fields to the booking submission form. This is the form that will be displayed on the single event page, allowing users to book the event. Click here for more information about Booking Forms in the Modern Events Calendar.

Hello, I’m really interested in your pro version of your plugin but I would like to know before purchasing if it has the ability to make variations for the tickets pricing. For example I want to create an event with limited tickets and when a person is booking lets say 3 tickets she can choose 2 adult tickets and 1 children ticket wit a different price. I want to know if the person can book all the tickets in one operation and have only one invoice with all the details of her purchase.
Thank you.

Hello, I would like to ask a question. By purchasing the pro version, can I already enable payment methods? Like paypal. Or do I need to purchase them separately, like woocommerce?
 
Thank you!

Hi – my website will list online events on zoom. Therefore I need to display zoom link only to users that book and pay for a specific event. How can I do that?

Hi, when I input the Price of a Ticket, the field only allow me to input NUMBER. So, how can I set the Currency for the Price? e.g. If the event is particular in Hongkong, the price would be in HKD; If the event is in US, the Price would be in USD ….Different events may need different currency, how can I do so? Thanks!
