How to Assign a Chart to an Event

Assigning a seating chart to an event is straightforward. Follow these steps:

1. Create a New Event:

   • Go to your WordPress admin dashboard.
   • Navigate to Event Manager > Add Event.

2. Fill in Event Details:

   • Add the event title, description, venue, date, time, and other standard information as you normally would.

3. Configure Seating Chart Settings:
   In the event creation form, you’ll notice three additional fields specific to Ultimate WP Seats Builder:

   1. Select a Chart:

      • A dropdown menu will display all published charts. Select the chart you want to assign to the event.

   2. Set Expiration Date:

      • Choose a date for when the event (and its booking) will expire.

   3. Enable or Disable Group Ticketing:

      • Check this box if you want to enable Group Ticketing for the event. Leave it unchecked for standard ticketing.

4. Save the Event:

   • After selecting the chart and configuring the settings, click Save or Publish.

5. Manage the Event Chart:

   • Once the event is saved, go to the event’s Edit Page.
   • You’ll see the assigned seating chart displayed.

6. Reserve Seats (Optional):

   • Below the chart, you can:
     • Reserve Seats for Users: Assign specific seats to registered users.
     • Reserve Seats Without Assigning Users: Block seats without specifying users.
     • Move Bookings: Transfer reservations by selecting booths and moving them from one section to another.

7. Ticket Creation:

   • If Group Ticketing is Disabled: Tickets are automatically created when the event is published.
   • If Group Ticketing is Enabled: You’ll need to manually create the tickets under the event settings.
