Tickera Pro adds gateway integrations, custom fields, and the WooCommerce Bridge on top of the core Tickera plugin. Tickets continue to live in wp_tc_tickets_instances with event reference, ticket type, attendee fields, and check-in status stored row by row. The default admin shows ticket inventory but does not surface custom fields inline and does not provide a cross-event check-in grid.

SleekView reads wp_tc_tickets_instances directly and joins the event CPT for title and date. Ticket type, check-in status, gateway, amount, and any custom field from the Tickera Pro Custom Fields add-on promote to columns on the same row. Saved views split the work between door staff (today's events with check-in toggle), finance (gateway and amount), and support (find by name or order ID).

Inline check-ins write to the same ticket row the Tickera scanner uses, so badges and reports stay aligned. Bulk operations on a filtered view (resend tickets, refund a session, mark a row no-show) run through standard hooks rather than spreadsheet workarounds.

Tickera Pro is a strong door-and-gateway plugin. Tickets, attendees, custom fields, and payment integrations all sit in tables the plugin manages. The gap is the working-day admin where door staff need a phone-friendly check-in grid and finance needs gateway plus amount on Monday morning.

Treating wp_tc_tickets_instances as a real grid changes the working day: today's check-ins as a saved view, gateway reconciliation as a filter, support lookups by name or order ID. Saved views become the rituals: door velocity at 6pm, finance reconciliation at 9am, vendor counts on Wednesday. The plugin keeps owning the tickets; SleekView just makes them editable from the angle each role actually needs.
