We're Moving to a New Support Platform – Starting June 1st!

We’re excited to let you know that starting June 1st, we’ll be transitioning to a new support system that will be available directly on our product websites – Amelia, wpDataTables, and Report Builder. In fact, the new support platform is already live for Amelia and wpDataTables, and we encourage you to reach out to us there.

You'll always be able to reach us through a widget in the bottom right corner of each website, where you can ask questions, report issues, or simply get assistance.

While we still do not offer live support, a new advanced, AI-powered assistant, trained on our documentation, use cases, and real conversations with our team, is there to help with basic to intermediate questions in no time.

We're doing our best to make this transition smooth and hassle-free. After June 1st, this current support website will redirect you to the new "Contact Us" pages on our product sites.

Thanks for your continued support and trust – we’re excited to bring you an even better support experience!

    I had hoped the "Show Event on Site" might allow me to use a shortcode to reveal it but it seems not to. Is there any way to keep an event off the calendar display, but view via a shortcode.


    The thing I'm trying to do here is do a pre-sale where people with a direct link (to a page with the shortcode on it) can book the event. But the public (who see the event calendar) can not (yet).

    Hello Taylor,

    Thanks for reaching out to us. 

    You could use this shortcode, for example 

    1. [ameliaeventslistbooking event=1] if you want to show only the Event with the ID: 1,

    to display the particular event on a separate page. I guess you could maybe use this shortcode 

    [ameliaeventslistbooking tag='physics'] if you want to show the booking form for all Events that include the tag ‘physics’.

    And then place the tags for all events, except the event that you want to use as a pre - sale.

    Please, let me know if it works.

    Kind Regards, 

    Stefan Petrov

    Hi Stefan, 

    Hrm, it's possible I didn't articulate the problem well. Let me try again.

    I want to offer a pre-sale. This is access to register for an event, prior to the general public. 

    The general public has access to the events calendar [ameliaevents type=calendar]. 


    Now to attempt to meet this need on my end, I had hoped I could uncheck the "Show Event on Site" checkbox but still provide access to it via a "private" page (direct link to people qualifying for the presale) using the [ameliaeventslistbooking event=<#id>]. However (probably as designed) it will not show that event if that "Show Event on Site" box isn't checked. But if I leave that on, the event will show in the calendar (thus the general public can register during the presale period, which is not what I want) and I'm not aware of any other way to restrict registration. 

    Is there another way to restrict registration for specific events?

    Hello Taylor,

    Thank you for clarifying. The option "Show Event on Site" will affect all booking forms, so if you create a new page [ameliaeventslistbooking event=<#id>] and disable this option, it will not be displayed on this form nor the event list, that's correct.

    By default, all customers can book a place for an event without any restrictions, but what i have on my mind is using the third-party plugins. Any membership plugin (like MemberPress, Ultimate Member, etc.) allows you to create pages that are inaccessible to some (for example non-logged-in users). You can also create custom logic, so a user can access this page once a month (for example), but we're not sure about that, since we don't work with Membership plugins. 

    I hope it helps.

    Kind Regards,
