WooTickets – Automate Ticket Purchase Process

Problem: A PayPal/Credit Card-purchased ticket does not show up in my email. Ever! I have to manually change the WooCommerce Order status from Processing to Completed. This can’t be how Eventbrite does it.

Solution: Go to WooCommerce Products (NOT The Event Calendar), click your Ticket item.

In the Product Data section:

• Choose Simple Product, then
• Tick “Virtual” (so the checkout doesn’t get confused about shipping), and
• Tick “Downloadable”

If there’s a way to make this process automated without ticking the “Downloadable” box, I didn’t see it in the WooCommerce Tickets: New User Primer videos or read it in the detailed instructions.
