When organizing events, many businesses aim to control access by making events password-protected or unlisted, which are ideal for creating exclusive or private experiences for specific audiences. However, Evey currently does not support password-protected or unlisted events.
This is because Evey integrates closely with Shopify to manage events and ticketing. The visibility and accessibility of events are governed by Shopify's product management system, which does not offer built-in options for password-protected or hidden products associated with events. Consequently, all events created in Evey must remain publicly accessible within the Shopify framework.
While password protection or unlisted event options aren't available, here are some workarounds to maintain a level of exclusivity for your events:
Restrict Access via a Collection Page: Place your event tickets in a specific collection, then password-protect the collection in Shopify. Note that this restricts access to the entire collection, not individual events.
Please note that this setup will need to be done in Shopify. We found a discussion regarding this in the Shopify community.Control Ticket Inventory: Keep ticket availability low and provide the purchase link only to selected individuals.
