Feature request: Display ticket invalidation

  • Hi,

    I would like to have a different return on ticket verification by anyone and users with privileges.

    I patched your code with one line

    in mt_templating.php at line 838 by adding

    $text .= ‘ (‘ . __( ‘Ticket has been marked as used!’) . ‘)’;

    right after

    add_post_meta( $purchase_id, ‘_tickets_used’, $ticket_id );

    This should do it.

    We had some issues which could have been prevented, if a successful invalidation is shown.

    Thank you,
    Michael

    So, if I understand correctly, you want the verification to have an indication that confirms that the ticket usage has been recorded. Is this because of a situation where the person checking tickets was not logged-in, so they *thought* they were marking tickets as used, but they were not? That’s the situation that comes to mind as a possible problem area this could solve; but let me know.

    It helps me to know what the situation you’re trying to solve is.

    Hi Joe,

    yes, that was exactly the situation. Sometimes a QR reader opens another browser where the user isn’t logged in. So he’s checking the tickets and they aren’t invalidated. With a message like “Ticket is valid and has been invalidated” this would be clear. Right now the message does not differ between logged in users and everyone else.

    Best regards,

    Michael

    Thanks for confirming that! Makes a lot of sense; I’ll get it implemented in the next release.
