Now sellers can publish an event date to their ads and sell tickets. With this feature, users can sort listings by event date, and a Calendar view is available and buy a ticketed event.

How it works

  • Seller selects an event date posting his ad.
  • Buyer clicks the Buy Now button and buys a ticketed event.
  • The confirmation email is sent to the buyer, which includes the Order ID and Product ID.

Prerequisites

  1. Create a Custom Field on Classifieds -> Custom Fields -> New
  2. The custom field Name must be eventdate and Type must be Date
