Questions and Answers:

Q: Can I replace the map image with an image of my own?
A: Yes, the image can be replaced. Place the desired image in the tmGifs folder. Locate the line containing the F_HTML_SEATMAP references towards the bottom of the page. Comment out the line. Add an image reference to the page calling the desired image from the tmGifs folder. Please note the reference should only require the folder name (tmGifs) and the full image name.

Q: Can I increase/decrease the value in the drop down for number of seats to purchase?
A: Yes, you can. This value is controlled by the over all cart limit, event limit and performance limits.

  • The cart limit is located in Setup >> System Preferences under the Web tab. It's controlled by the Maximum Tickets field. This value determines the total number of tickets that are allowed per cart. If the patron has already added tickets to their cart the drop down will decrease by the number of tickets in the cart.

  • The Event limit is in the Eventtab of the Event Setup. The Web Purchase Limit defaults to the cart limit from above. However, a value can be entered into the field to alter the total number of tickets that can be purchased over all for the Event. This means if there are several performances this is the total tickets for all performances. If an event has a maximum of 8 tickets regardless of performances this is where the value would be set.

  • Finally, the Performance limit is controlled in the Web Settings tab. This is located by selecting the Performance tab in the Event and double clicking on the performance. The Web Purchase Limit field controls the maximum tickets per performance that can be purchased. If an event has a limit of four tickets per performance this is where the value would be set.
