EVENT CATEGORIES<\/strong><\/strong><\/td><\/tr>
\u2714 When creating new events, you can now select matching main categories and subcategories<\/strong>. There are five main categories in total, each with its own subcategories.

\u2714 Once enough events have been categorized, we can add a search and filter function<\/strong> to the web shop and, in future, recommend similar events to buyers. That means more visibility for your events.

\u2714 For existing events<\/strong>, the general category \u201cCulture \u2013 Other\u201d was assigned automatically so that no error messages appear when editing them.

\u2714 Until the filter function is available, you can either ignore this or take the opportunity to try out the new category system with your existing events.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n

<\/div>\n
SAVE LOCATIONS<\/strong><\/td><\/tr>
\u2714 You can now add and save<\/strong> venues<\/strong> yourself that don’t appear in the search (because they aren’t listed on OpenStreetMap).

\u2714 You can create and edit<\/strong> venues directly in events and event series.

\u2714 Venues no longer have to be added again every time \u2013 they stay saved permanently<\/strong>.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n

<\/div>\n
UPPER AUSTRIAN CHAMBER OF LABOR (AK O\u00d6) BENEFITS CARD<\/strong><\/td><\/tr>
\u2714 With fixed discounts<\/strong>, you can now also integrate the benefits card (Leistungskarte) of the Upper Austrian Chamber of Labor.

\u2714 When buying a ticket, the card number<\/strong> is validated live and the discount is applied automatically.

\ud83d\udca1Please note: this feature is currently only available to benefits card holders from Upper Austria.<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n
<\/div>\n
AGE VERIFICATION FOR DISCOUNTS<\/strong><\/td><\/tr>
\u2714 Also new: age verification<\/strong> for fixed discounts.

\u2714 When buying a ticket, the buyer’s age is requested and the discount<\/strong> is applied automatically.

\u2714 You can define any maximum age<\/strong>. When purchasing, buyers confirm their date of birth.

\u2714 This is particularly handy for youth discounts<\/strong>.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n
<\/div>\n
MORE UPDATES<\/strong><\/td><\/tr>
\u2714 We’ve also made a number of improvements<\/strong> to the system.

\u2714 Minor bugs<\/strong> have been fixed<\/strong>.

\u2714 Seat numbers<\/strong> are now shown in the cart (in the POS and the web shop).

\u2714 The admin area<\/strong> has been technically overhauled.

\u2714 The web shop<\/strong> has received an update and now looks even more modern.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
