The front-end date picker
You’re here because…
you want to know what the buyer sees — how they pick which date they’re attending before they add a ticket to the cart.
On the event page, a recurring event shows a date picker: the buyer selects the occurrence they want, and the ticket they add to the cart is tied to that exact date.
What the buyer does
- Opens the event page and sees the available dates.
- Picks a date — sold-out dates are clearly marked.
- Adds a ticket (and a seat, if the event is seated). The chosen occurrence travels with the cart item all the way to the order.
Why it matters at the door
Because the occurrence is stored on the ticket, the Check-in app and the rules engine know which night each ticket is for. Scanning a Friday ticket on Saturday returns a clear wrong event result, so the wrong-night problem solves itself.
