Discount for multiple tickets

For the moment you need to program discounts in yourself via the filter eme_insert_rsvp_action, see https://www.e-dynamics.be/wordpress/?cat=41

Thanks Framky.

I’ve had a look at that link and I’m afraid it doesn’t make that much sense to me ?? I’m not really a developer. J

Then I’m sorry, but for now discounts are not implemented directly into EME. Something on my todo list …

No worries…if you can drop me a step by step instruction, I would gladly make a donation to the project.

Franky, I wrote you on your e-dynamics support page about this same thing.

I’ll also make a donation for step-by-step instructions to do this.

Please.

Sorry for the late reply, and yes, I did see your post at the forum.
But if you’re unfamiliar with php, it’s not that simple.
I’ll see if I can cook up an example later on …

Here’s a post of somebody using the eme_update_rsvp_action filter:
https://www.e-dynamics.be/bbpress/topic.php?id=2106#post-8777

It’s similar to what you want, but instead you’d want to update the price field. So put the following in your theme functions.php (for a single-price-category event):

add_action('eme_insert_rsvp_action', 'my_eme_discount_function',20,1);
function my_eme_discount_function($booking) {
   global $wpdb;
   $bookings_table = $wpdb->prefix.BOOKINGS_TBNAME;
   $where = array();
   $fields = array();

   $event_id = $booking['event_id'];

   if ($event_id == 9467) {        /* put in the event_id that needs processing */
      //echo 'EVENT ID='.$event_id .' Booking_id = '.$booking['booking_id'];

      $seats=$booking['booking_seats'];
      $price=$booking['booking_price'];

      // more than 2 seats, then the price is 25 per seat
      if ($seats> 2)
          $price = $seats * 25;

      $fields['booking_price'] = $price;
      $where['booking_id'] = $booking['booking_id'];
      $wpdb->update($bookings_table, $fields, $where);
   }
   return;
}

Thanks for this Franky. I have either misunderstood or done something wrong as I added the code under the line below to the functions.php file (Which is the above with simply the event ID changed to match the ID that I wanted the ‘multibuy’ price for.) When I did this the price was reduced to zero. I suspect that I’m very close to being there but can’t work out what else I need to do!?

add_action(’eme_update_rsvp_action’, ‘count_only_attendance_tickets_on_update’,20,1);
function count_only_attendance_tickets_on_update($booking) {
global $wpdb;
$bookings_table = $wpdb->prefix.BOOKINGS_TBNAME;
$where = array();
$fields = array();

$event_id = $booking[‘event_id’];

if ($event_id == 5) { /* put in the event_id that needs processing */
//echo ‘EVENT ID=’.$event_id .’ Booking_id = ‘.$booking[‘booking_id’];

$seats=preg_split(“/\|\|/”,$booking[‘booking_seats_mp’]);

/* use only attendance tickets,#_SEATS1 and #_SEATS2, array values 0 and 1 */
$tix_tot = $seats[0] + $seats[1];

$fields[‘booking_seats’] = $tix_tot;
// echo ‘Attendence tix_tot =’ . $tix_tot;
$where[‘booking_id’] = $booking[‘booking_id’];
$wpdb->update($bookings_table, $fields, $where);
}
return;
}

you’re not using the example I gave, start with that. The example you used is for multiseats events.

Oops I cut and pasted the info from the wrong page into this thread…I did use the correct text…. below is what I have used on my website with the previously mentioned results.

add_action('eme_insert_rsvp_action', 'my_eme_discount_function',20,1);
function my_eme_discount_function($booking) {
   global $wpdb;
   $bookings_table = $wpdb->prefix.BOOKINGS_TBNAME;
   $where = array();
   $fields = array();

   $event_id = $booking['event_id'];

   if ($event_id == 5) {        /* put in the event_id that needs processing */
      //echo 'EVENT ID='.$event_id .' Booking_id = '.$booking['booking_id'];

      $seats=$booking['booking_seats'];
      $price=$booking['booking_price'];

      // more than 2 seats, then the price is 25 per seat
      if ($seats> 2)
          $price = $seats * 25;

      $fields['booking_price'] = $price;
      $where['booking_id'] = $booking['booking_id'];
      $wpdb->update($bookings_table, $fields, $where);
   }
   return;
}

Well … at a first glance it seems ok to me.
What you can always do is do a print of the price variable there and “die” then, so you’ll see what the price value is.
I’ll test this out this evening.

OK. I think I’ve gone some way to fix it now…I’ve amended the logic slightly as the price is reduced if the client is buying >1 ticket.

However it appears that the multiplication is now being done twice…as the amount being asked for is ￡100 for 2 tickets (￡25 x2 x2) and ￡225 for 3 (￡25 x3 x3).

Have I done something wrong here?

Ok, I’ve got it working now for one event using the below… Thanks Franky.

How do I duplicate this for several events?

add_action('eme_insert_rsvp_action', 'my_eme_discount_function',20,1);
function my_eme_discount_function($booking) {
   global $wpdb;
   $bookings_table = $wpdb->prefix.BOOKINGS_TBNAME;
   $where = array();
   $fields = array();

   $event_id = $booking['event_id'];

   if ($event_id == 5) {        /* put in the event_id that needs processing */
      //echo 'EVENT ID='.$event_id .' Booking_id = '.$booking['booking_id'];

      $seats=$booking['booking_seats'];
      $price=$booking['booking_price'];

      // more than 2 seats, then the price is 25 per seat
      if ($seats> 1)
          $price = 25;

      $fields['booking_price'] = $price;
      $where['booking_id'] = $booking['booking_id'];
      $wpdb->update($bookings_table, $fields, $where);
   }
   return;
}

What did you change?
For more than one event, eg. for event id’s 5,7,11:

if ($event_id == 5 || $event_id==7 || $event_id==11)

Thanks will try the multiple events…

I changed:

[ Moderator note: please wrap code in backticks or use the code button. Really, the code button is your friend. ]

if ($seats> 2)
          $price = $seats * 25;

to:

if ($seats> 1)
$price = 25;
