Settings

User - Event Manager

The Flexible PDF Coupons - Event Ticket QR Scanner creates a new user role in the shop - Event Manager.
Go to Users → All Users → [Username] to set the user role for the people who handle the event sold in your shop.

The Event Manager role has permissions to:

Viewing WooCommerce coupons,
Scanning QR codes,
Changing the status of WooCommerce coupons.

QR code on coupon template

Go to PDF Coupons → Templates → [Template name] or Add new template.
In the column with the template tools (screenshot above), you will find the option to add a QR code to the coupon template. You may add it by click, drag & drop it to right place and adjust the size. Save changes.

QR code on the PDF

Products > Product > PDF Coupon > Coupon template

To generate a PDF with a QR code, you will need to configure the product using the Flexible PDF Coupons PRO plugin settings. See how to do it →.

During setup, select the Coupon template containing the QR code (screenshot above).

The purchase of a product marked as PDF Coupon, will create a WooCommerce coupon code, which will also be a QR code.

The Flexible Coupons plugin will create a coupon code each time a ticket is purchased, which can then be used in-store. If you want this to be disabled, limit the coupon to one product, e.g. with stock zeroed out
