A bit later than expected, but 1.2 is ready for release. This update is mainly focussing on the bookee infrastructure, but there’s few other bits added in too. Bookee shortcodes [booking_history] – displays all the bookings (confirmed or otherwise) that a user has made [events_attending] – displays all events that a user is attending There …
Gateway settings (merchant account details etc) must be the same across all events – but it is possible to restrict which gateways appear on which events – for instance to allow PayPal purchases only on some events To do this we use the eventorganiser_enabled_gateways hook, which filters the enabled gateways. Step 1: Specify which gateways …
As mentioned in this article on enabling auto-redirect, setting the return url [in PayPal accounts] will not affect the url they are redirected too as the plug-in specifies the return url when it sends the user to the gateway. By default users are returned to the booking page with a thank you noticed displayed at …

1.1 is about be released this week so I’d share with you some of the updates that shall be included: What’s in 1.1 Guest booking options 1.0 gave you the option of only allowing logged in users to place bookings. Or you could allow guests to place bookings, but they would be created an account. …
