Basicly:
QRcode generator, which gives the user a QR code to print, or to display in the smartphone and the ticket collector can than scan the code, which is then set to "scanned".

As described here on forum:

Basically:

If I wanted to create a really business website for selling tickets, I would not use a VirtueMart. You can check our website on Joomla: https://www.pragueclassicconcerts.cz (etc 750 developping hours and 50 hours of project preparation).
It contains a QR code on tickets and is connected to the special DB, and using app on a mobile phone/tablet, I can scan the code and mark the tickets as scanned when customers enter the concert.

But if you really want to use VirtueMart, it's an possible option, it'll just be a little trickier to run so it's not a funny site ..

Maybe you need someone to make your idea a working project. Such work is usually paid for and is prepared by the project manager, who understands all needs (not only the client, but also the end customers). Definitely not a developer or programmer :)

Ok, I should be more specific. My project is only one annually repeating open-air festival https://chillifest.cz. I want use Virtuemart to keep things simple and cheap. One system to sell tickets and merch. For more complex e-ticket solution I'll give a try to this extension for example: https://joomdonation.com/joomla-extensions/events-booking-joomla-events-registration. It may be less fun :)

does not have a connection to an external DB with the possibility of online checking of QR codes and depreciation in the DB.

Hello Rudolf,

Park Restaurant is the best place in the world to have a steak. I live 50 meters from there :D Too bad they don't work much with chili :D I have asked them several times to participate in the festival.


I have idea to try combination of this software

https://awodev.com/ Awocoupon
To sell codes by Virtuemart.

I'm not sure how to deprecate these coupons.

Maybe this is the way.

To generate, export and online check codes.
