Event Registration - php

How can I create a site like http://www.eventbrite.com/ in drupal.
If its not possible in drupal what should I probably use.
More specifics --
Users can add their own events, add pricing. Out of that pricing the website can keep a certain % say 5%, when users purchase tickets. The commission can be on per event basis and cannot be changed by users, only admin can do that.
Free events can be also added.
It should also have event management features like artist management, portfolio management.
The event creators should have a profile which can be rated by the users so that they can have profile like system.

Your question is very general, man... I'd use Event, Date, Location, Views and CCK modules. If you want a more specific answer, make your question more specific as well.

Yes, this is possible. Set up a site using Drupal and then try out this module:

Allow users to edit a Single page on Wordpress

i manage my company website which runs WordPress. There are several chapters across the USA. I have pages setup for them so that people can view our chapters content. I was wondering, instead of them emailing me the changes they want. Is there a way where i can allow the users to only be able to edit a single page, without giving them access to the entire WordPress admin page/ website.
I would be willing to pay for a commercial plug if this option exists. Thanks for reading this.
There are Various Free / Paid Solution will be available for this based on your Model You can Choose any one of the following or there could be many other ways to get this done these are some of the way
You Can make them Editor and The Owner of the Chapter which they blong so in this way they will not have any rights to Edit other Chapters they will be only able to edit the Chapters which they own.To restrict other access in this case you can use plugin like User Role Editor and many other available at Wordpress repo.
You can also customize plugin like WP User Frontend to achieve the front end edit possible.
A Complete Custom Solution where use need not to login they simply submit the Changes which will be logged as article draft and you can later review and approve.
i think there will be much more way but it will be completely based on your applications nature so hope this helps to you.

Is it possible (and how to?) divide application to backend (admin part) and frontend (user part) parts?

I am developing web application, using zend framework 2. In my app, I want some modules. News, for example, users etc.
Is it possible, to divide whole application to two big parts: front-end (for users) and back-end (for admins).
In front-end there will be part of News module, which render news list, full news item etc.
In back-end there will be part of News module, which will render list of all news, tools for editing, deleting etc.
At the moment, I have simple structure:
I have MyZfcAdmin module, with routes configurated so, that when I am writing /admin/news/edit/5 it will call NewsController edit action with id 5 and render it. So now, I have all actions (for admins and for users) in one controller. Is it possible to create something like this:
module
frontend
News
SomeMoreModule
backend
News
SomeMoreModule
I found topic on google questions, in that suggested to use this CMS, but I want to try it by myself.
Different people have different idea in managing application, for me I will have news module that handle all news related calls both admin parts and user accessible parts. The idea you have described have some side effects like duplication of code between modules and crossing of borders between isolate modules like calling action in another modules(it's ok if there are related or fall in hierarchy), which may have issues in long term maintenance of the applications.
IMHO I might suggest you could create modules like News, users, etc where it can have combined functionality of both admin and user access. You can later include user authorization plug ins using bootstrap events and restrict action accessible by admin and other users
There is not concept of submodules inside any module. But you can give them proper naming conversations. If code is not formed in oops properly, then there can be code duplication into your project. As per #raj's answer, it's good to give restrictions based on user role. If any action is not intersecting admin and user role then you can separate those actions, but actions like add or edit news content are same for both role then you should point to same action by router.

Joomla Administrator Plugins?

Is it possible to have Admin Plugins? Or are plugins only for the Site?
What I want is to have a notification system (not email) on the Admin side very much like Facebook. The trigger for such notifications is from the Site.
I've scanned through these events for Plugins and implemented a very simple content plugin (just testing onContentAfterTitle) for Site only.
Questions
Do these events also apply to the Admin side?
Is it possible to have an Admin Plugin that selects notifications from the database and displays them on screen?
Or if you guys can recommend an existing extension, that would be of great help. Thanks
The plugins are available for both side admin and site.
the difference is based on the events used inside the plugin.
for example onContentAfterSave event on the content plugin trigger when an article is saved.
its available in both side when an admin saves articles it trigger, also from site users post articles then also it will trigger.
Some events that are applied only on the site like
onContentPrepare,onContentAfterTitle, onContentBeforeDisplay,onContentAfterDisplay etc
so which event is choose based on that the plugin works!.
The notification plugins you are looking for is what does exactly ? then only we can suggest an event or plugin like its related to article, user or something else.
Hope its make sense..

Event management and custom newsletter in Wordpress

I have a Joomla 1.5.26 website in which I publish events and conferences dictated by a company. Those are handled by categories (cities).
Until now, I follow this workflow:
Publish the event (by entering a new registry) or duplicating an
entry (if apply) with a component called Simple Calendar. It creates
in the frontend a page for each event and handle those by categories.
Then, because of the customization of my template, I have to publish an article in the front page with all the information of the current events. Double work.
Last: Go to a system (based in php and connected to my joomla database) that I created to manage the newsletter. I have to write again all the information of the events in a TinyMCE field and then choose in a select box the group of users, by state (I override the jos_user database and added "State" field. I also override the registration page, so users can select their state of origin).
In that system, I also create a page that let me send a newsletter to all the users in jos_user.
What I need:
I need to simplify this Workflow. I want to continue using a CMS (I'm thinking in Wordpress).
I need to migrate all the users registered in Joomla (with it custom field).
I will like to publish the events one time, and have the possibility to send a newsletter of upcoming events or category upcoming events to a specific group of user or to all of them.
What I have tried:
Wordpress + Event Espresso: this solution didn't work for me, cause' it didn't allow me to handle the newsletter as I need.
What I don't need:
A payment system.
Attendee Manager.
You might want to try out this plugin which I have been working for a long time. It's a good plugin to get the work done.

Ecommerce application and solution

Here's my predicament. I'm working with a designer who has a very unique layout for his ecommerce site. It's kinda like a table/tier based system where you buy a certain amount of points. I need the ability to have user accounts etc and it will all be in joomla. There's many options such as magento, virtuamart etc. but basically what I'm saying is... will it be possible with any particular platform to transform the products so much so that can still use the platform? here's a screen shot...
http://www.one2designs.com/images/screen.png
Basically It needs to some way integrate into joomla, allow for user profiles etc, and I guess be so customizable that it can be transformed into that look.
Both Joomla and Virtuemart allow for 100% of customisation of the templates used. The process is simply:
Design
Cut and slice into HTML
Build Joomla template, product pages.
Further, the screenshot shows simply a list of 7 products, so either Table with 7 columns or a ul, li construct will work.
Is there anything else product wise you need to manage? It doesn't look like people will actually add more than 1 product to their "shopping cart", so a simple form manager like RSForm may achieve the same purpose. There are E-Commerce plugins for most newer form managers now and it should also not be too hard to link up third party payment gateways as a one off.
From the look of your image, that is simply a product with various options that are user selected. You would need to change the way the product options are displayed to fit the design, but other than the display, there is nothing unusual about a product with many options. Everything below the radio buttons is pretty much irrelevant as it is only option details. Virtuemart could be made to do this fairly easily.
