Release 3.4.0 of pretix

6. Dez. 2019

Today, we are releasing pretix 3.4.0. This release contains lots of minor changes and improvements. Big thanks go to Mie Frydensbjerg, Maarten van den Berg, and Maico Timmerman, who contributed to this release. ❤️

pretix 3.4.0 is now available for installation via pip. The new docker images will appear on Docker Hub over the next few hours. All customers of pretix Hosted are already using the new version and do not need to take any action.

Seat-specific vouchers

Vouchers can now be assigned to a specific seat. This way, the seat will only be sold to the person holding the voucher. You can use this to reserve a seat for a VIP guest up to a specific time and automatically release the seat if the voucher is not redeemed before it expires.

Phone number questions

We've introduced a new type of questions that you can use to ask your attendees for their phone number. The field will automatically perform correct validation of international phone numbers.
