Hi there,
I wonder if anyone has tried or might be able to suggest a solution to the following regarding repeating discounts for recurring child events.
I would like to run a repeating weekly event and can happily create a parent/child event as such. But I would like to allow a specific number of attendees, (from the actual venue) to go to the event for free. So if I have 20 spaces in each event, I would like to allow 5 people access for a full discount. My initial thoughts would be to:
1) use a 100% discount Coupon, that I could provide to the venue specifically for their use and 5 of their people could attend and not be charged. I know I can set the category in the coupon to be specific for these recurring events, and I can set the number of times used. But will that number of times used recur with each child event in the category? Or would I have to produce a different coupon for each and every event?? i.e. if I set times used as 5, if 5 of these discounted people register for the first event, will the coupon stop or will it reset for recurring events?
2) I have successfully used custom fields previously to include discounts to events, that recur. And could use similarly, but I am usure if I can limit the number of times that a custom field is used?? i.e. if 5 venue people register and use the custom field to indicate themselves as related to the venue, can it be set not to show up after these number of times?
I think Events Booking is a brilliant application and do use quite a lot, but haven't needed to use in this way before. I hope I have explained the situation reasonably, but can anyone think of a solution that may help? Any thoughts or help that I could try out would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you and sending kind regards
