Early bird tickets and normal tickets for one event

    Is it possible to restrict a cheaper “early bird” ticket to be able to buy in between a specific space of time (e.g. two weeks prior event) and offer a second “normal price” ticket for one event?
    Or is this possible with Coupon codes only? I would like to avoid people entering a code. They should be able to buy the early bird price and if the date is gone, normal price should be available only

    Not really in that way, but you can either use discount codes with an expire date, see http://www.e-dynamics.be/wordpress/category/documentation/17-discounts/
    Or create your own discount filter, see the filter examples: http://www.e-dynamics.be/wordpress/hooks-and-filters/

    Yes, that is what I’m trying now with the limited coupon codes.
    The amount that you define for a coupon code with a fixed value is not reducing by a per ticket base but for the whole order. Would be nice if you could set this reduction for a per ticket reduction, when not using a percentage value.

    I don’t get how the filters work yet as I’m not a programmer. Perhaps a video tutorial would be helpful to learn that?

    The filters are a wordpress thing, so I point in my page to wordpress for that:
    https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/add_filter/

    Also, the page in my post above contains some examples on the filters to use (there is a discount example on that page, basically copy/paste that code in your theme function.php file will get you going). I know it takes some work, but filters are there just because it allows you to get it working the way you want.

    Concerning the per-ticket or total reduction: it is a nice suggestion, I’ll see what I can do for that.

    FYI: the next version will have a new discount type “fixed discount per seat”
