This module extends the functionality of website_event to support external events. This allows to list together with internal events, external events for which registration is managed on another website.

AI-generated from the code · Odoo 16.0

Lets you list events whose registration happens on another website alongside your own events. You mark an event as external, add the outside registration link, and Odoo hides the internal ticketing and registration options.

This module adds an option on events so you can publish events that are organised or registered elsewhere, while still showing them in your Odoo event list.

On the event form you get two new fields: a checkbox "External Event" and a text field for the external link. When the checkbox is ticked, the link becomes mandatory. At the same time, Odoo hides the parts of the form that only make sense for events you manage yourself: the registration statistics and registrations buttons, the limited-seats settings, the automatic confirmation option, the whole detailed notebook section, and the website "Register" button setting.

On the website, an external event no longer shows the ticket selection area. Instead visitors see a message saying registrations are done on an external website, with a button "More information / Register" that opens the link you entered. In the public events list, external events are flagged with an "External Event" label.

It works together with the website event features and only changes the event.event model and the event web pages.
