Changelog

Schedule ticket sale end

You can now schedule when tickets are no longer available.

This enables you to automatically stop the sale of tickets at a certain point. End ticket sales:

• When the event begins
• When the event ends
• At a specific time before the start date (I.E 2 hours before the start of the event)
• At specific time

Schedule ticket release

You can now schedule when your tickets become available.

This enables you to display an event, display a message that tickets will be available in the future, and then have them automatically available at that date. No more need to manually log into ECA to release tickets.

Ticket availability

You can now display ticket availability to your customers. 🎉

Availability information shows on the purchase modal, and throughout other areas of the widget if each type type has limited availability.

Improved event analytics

Analytics have been added to the event overview page.

Attendees page

We've added a fancy new attendees page.

The attendees is a collection of all the people who have come to any of your events. Use it to see your most loyal customers, however much they spend, and which events they have attended.

Improved event analytics

Analytics have been added to the event overview page.

End sales automatically

You can now automatically end sales when the event is over.

Toggle this in the RSVP/Tickets settings of the event.

New event page

Easily see all the rsvps and purchases for an event directly from the editor.

Simply click on an event, head to the RSVP/Tickets tab (on the left) and click "See all responses to this event".

RSVP/Tickets page update

The RSVP/Tickets page, where you see all the purchases and rsvps for your events, has been completely re-built with a host of new features:

• Faster - The RSVP/Tickets page now loads significant faster. Accounts with a large number of purchases sometimes found this page a little slow.
• Group by - View your purchases in order of purchase date or grouped by event.
• Search & filter - Search for purchases with the new search functionality. Choose to only see purchases between certain dates.
• New export functionality - Export all purchases between two set dates. Very useful for accounting purposes.

Fresh admin

We've refreshed the admin section of Event Calendar App with a new, cleaner look. 🤓

Widget Navigation

A new navigation bar has been added to the bottom of the event calendar widget. This makes it more obvious to users when they scroll to the bottom that more events may be available.

Zapier Integration

Zapier intergation is now live. 🎉

See our app's page on Zapier

Event duplication

Duplicating an event as been made clearer to show which event is the original and which is the duplicated event.

The editor also now 'auto-focuses' on the new duplicated event.

Confirmation page

A confirmation page has been added which shows after the customer has made a purchase. It provides a summary of the purchase rather than the modal simply closing.

In addition, a customisable message can be added to the bottom of the screen.

Shopify checkout integration

New Shopify customers can now sell tickets using our Shopify checkout integration.

Check out the demo here https://eca-demo-store.myshopify.com/

Coupons

You can now create coupons and decide which events that coupon can be used with. Before, you could only create coupons and allow them to be used with all of your events.

Tax Support

ECA now supports adding tax to your ticket sales. Ideal if you need to apply sales tax or VAT.

Featured Events

You can now 'feature' events. Featured events will always appear at the top of your listings, irrelevant of their date.

This is great if you're running regular events but have a particularly special event that you want to promote.

Timezone display

You can now show a timezone next to your event times. Turn this feature on from inside the editor.

Add to calendar changes

The event 'add to calendar' button has been changed so that it adds events into an existing calendar rather than creating a new subscription. The old system didn't work very well because if the customer wanted to subscribe to 10 of your events, it would effectively create 10 new calendars in their calendar app. Not ideal.

The downside to this is that we can't automatically update the event in the customers calendar if you update the event in ECA. Boo! However, when your customer adds your event to their calendar we include a nice link which enables them to check the absolute latest details.

Overhauled ticket types functionality

Overhauled ticket types functionality. You can now set limits on a per ticket basis, or create groups of tickets and set a limit on that.

You can also change the order in which ticket types are displayed simply by dragging them.

Changelog

This is the start of the changelog!

Now clearly there's been many improvements before November, but from today I've decided to start documentating the changes in the form of a 'changelog'. This will enable you to see what has changed and when.
