Last week we wrote about a sneak peek into the new JTicketing Android app. This weekend, we got a fantastic opportunity to use it for an actual event. Techjoomla was a proud sponsor for the recent Joomla Day India that happened on 9-10th February 2013. And that's not it, our own J!Ticketing was powering the event booking engine of Joomla Day and an 'event manager app' made by Techjoomla and 'apptitude' was used to verify the tickets for all participants. It was fun to QR scan all the participant tickets and check them in. The checked in participants also got a welcome email that told them about the schedule! Watch the video below to see it in action!

We're aiming for a February end release of the Managers' app for JTicketing. It will be available on the Android Play store to start with and a release on the iTunes store will follow. Stay tuned!
JTicketing v1.3 is now available for download to Subscribers. This version introduces support for adding Ticketing to JEvents the premier Events system for Joomla. This means you can now also monetize JEvents events & use JTicketing without needing JomSocial for Events.
Plus 1.3 adds support for Joomla 3.0 & has a slick Bootstrap interface. Besides these, it has quite a few more feature additions to improve usability & bug fixes. Another small feature addition is that now the Event owner can also create 'Free Tickets'. Detailed Order Id configuration, Direct payments to event owners via paypal & admin usability improvements are some of the Major changes in this release.
Please note that from this version forward, there shall be 2 files per release available for Download. One for Joomla 1.5 & another common file for Joomla 2.5 & 3.0 for this extension.
