How to set up Active Seat maps on IMS Voyager Transit & Tour

 

This feature is an OPTION available for IMS Tour manager and/or IMS Transit.

"File with layout template" field can be used to specify template for V3 graphics layout. Please, see detailed instructions below.

1. Add seats information for tour.

In the admin.area: menu "Tours" -> submenu "Seats List" -> click on the tour name link -> fill "Generate Seats Numbers / Names" form:

- Quantity: quantity of seats for this tour to generate;

- Type: in case of "1,2,3" option seats will be named like "1", "2", "3", ...;

in case of "A,B,C..." option seats will be named like "A", "B", "C", ...;

- Optional prefix: text to add before seat number. For example: "seat"

- Delete existing seats information: if checked, then all information about existing seats for this tour will be deleted before adding new seats. After creation you can modify seat information by clicking on "Modify" button. For example, you can add seat description - it will appear on the front-end.

2. Create inventory for the tour.

Menu "Tours" -> submenu "Create Inventory" -> click on the tour name link and generate inventory. In this case information about seats availability will be generated automatically. Then you can see and change this information in the admin. area: menu "Tours"

-> submenu "Seats Availability".

Please, note: if you already have generated inventory BEFORE seats layout creation, then you need to regenerate inventory.

3. Create template for seats. (Your first seat map set-up is included in the Active maps or we can quote for adding additional seat maps)

We created one example: inc\templates\brighton.ihtml

For each seat you need to place the following HTML code:

<div id="dvseat294"><?=SetSeat(294, 'seat-available.jpg', 'seat-unavailable.jpg', 'seat-unavailable.jpg', $iProductID, $iYear, $iMonth, $iDay, $iTime); ?></div>

294 - seat ID; you can find this ID in the admin.area menu "Tours" -> submenu "Seats List" -> select a tour -> column "Seat ID". Please, note that "seat ID" must be specified twice: in the div and in the SetSeat function call.

'seat-available.jpg', 'seat-unavailable.jpg', 'seat-unavailable.jpg' - image filenames for "available", "booked" and "not available" seats. These images must exist in shop_image/ folder.

After creation, please, upload this template in the inc/templates/ folder.

4. Add created template for tour.

Menu "Tours" -> submenu "List Tours" -> click on the tour name. As a result you'll see tour form with additional field - "File with layout template". Please, enter template filename in this field without path. For example, if you created brighton.ihtml template, then this field should contain brighton.ihtml

5. After this you can use seats on the website.

In any time you can check and change seats availability for tour or transit: menu "Tours or Transit" -> submenu "Seats Availability".
