Codestorm Technology Ticketing for WooCommerce is a lightweight ticketing layer that works with WooCommerce. It keeps payments and product pricing in WooCommerce and adds the essentials needed to issue and validate tickets.
Version 1.0.8 includes:
- A simple Ticketing for WooCommerce dashboard.
- Ticket-enabled WooCommerce products.
- Global visit calendar with open weekdays and time slots.
- Visit date/time captured in the cart and order.
- One ticket per purchased unit after payment confirmation.
- Local QR Code generation. Ticket QR payloads are not sent to third-party QR services.
- Downloadable ticket PDFs generated locally by the plugin, with the QR drawn from the bundled QR matrix.
- Ticket links added to customer WooCommerce emails.
- Admin check-in with read-before-confirm flow.
- Atomic one-time consumption: a second entry is blocked.
- Optional camera scanning through the browser BarcodeDetector API, with manual/USB scanner fallback.
- Basic ticket list, settings and help screens.
- Ticket, calendar and protected operator check-in shortcodes.
- WordPress personal data exporter and eraser integration.
- RTL, keyboard-focus and reduced-motion friendly admin UI.
The plugin does not process payments itself. WooCommerce remains responsible for products, prices, checkout, payment gateways, taxes and refunds.
Privacy
The plugin stores the minimum purchaser information needed to issue and validate tickets: order reference, ticket code, customer name/e-mail, visit date/time and usage state. Check-in audit records store hashed IP address and hashed user-agent values rather than their raw values.
The plugin registers with the WordPress personal data exporter and eraser tools. Erasure anonymizes customer name/e-mail and the WordPress user reference while retaining the order reference and operational ticket state for transaction integrity.
QR Codes and ticket PDFs are generated locally. Version 1.0.9 does not send ticket payloads to any Codestorm Technology service.
External services
The plugin does not contact a Codestorm Technology API or cloud service. QR Codes and ticket PDFs are generated locally by the bundled PHP libraries.
WooCommerce itself, payment gateways, e-mail providers, hosting services, browser features and other extensions installed by the site owner may communicate with their own external services independently of this plugin.
The optional camera scanner uses the browser BarcodeDetector API when the visitor’s browser supports it; the plugin does not upload camera images to Codestorm Technology.
Third-party libraries
The production ZIP bundles only the following runtime libraries locally; no CDN is required. Their upstream license files remain included under vendor/.
- chillerlan/php-qrcode 6.0.1 — MIT and Apache-2.0
- chillerlan/php-settings-container 3.3.0 — MIT
Ticket PDFs are generated by the plugin itself with core PDF operators. QR graphics are drawn directly from the local QR matrix, so no HTML-to-PDF library, remote QR service or CDN is required.
The plugin folder and text domain are codestormtechnology-ticketing-woocommerce, matching the requested WordPress.org permalink. Existing database keys and aibo_* implementation prefixes are retained only for upgrade/data compatibility and are not the plugin display name or permalink.
