    Here is the type of event ticket plugin that I am suggesting. https://wordpress.org/plugins/ticket-tailor/

    I have asked this question before and will try to do so again. I want the GD events to post to primary site and share to ticket.whatshappeningtoday.com in order for people to purchase tickets.

    “My thinking” was simple. I hope. When the user of GD is successful in posting their event the redirect page to that displays “success” can also have a link that reads.

    “Do you need to set up tickets for your Event? If “yes” click on this link “I want offer tickets”

    They are then sent to the tickets.whatshappeningtoday.com and see their event or can find their event and set up the tickets.

    Maybe I need to set this up on the jobs board?

    Again and always…kind regards,

    Most (if not all) booking or ticket plugins allow the administrators to sell tickets for their website.
    To be able to integrate a booking or ticket plugin with GD, all your users need to be able to create tickets.
    So any of these plugins can only work if they allow all your users to create their own tickets. That does not seem to be the case.

    Hmmm. Let’s see. plugins “only?” allow the administrators to sell ticket for “their” website.

    To integrate booking or ticket plugin with GD, all user need to be able to create tickets inferring all user would need to be administrators.

    So any of these plugins will work “if an only if they allow “all” users to create ticket as administrators.

    Do you feel that a registration plugin such as s2member with a plugin like capababilities manager.. and between the two s2member with custom capabilties and capabilities manager that at time of registration that any person/user can opt for the custom capabilities to sell tickets and not be administrators?

    Kind regards,

    It’s not that simple. Then any user can sell tickets for other users too. And all the payments will go to one account, etc.
    You will have to find a pretty specialized developer to create anything like that.
