MEC Seat 1.5.0

MEC Seat is a WordPress seating plugin that helps you sell seats in any location and design a dynamic venue layout for events. It addresses the need for precise booking control when venues have complex floor plans, mixed seating, or restricted areas. With MEC Seat, you can assign different ticket types to rows or individual seats and control which seats are bookable, hidden, or disabled. The result is a clearer booking experience for buyers and more reliable pricing and availability rules for your event pages.

You can maintain one general layout for all events or create separate seat maps per event, then generate report sheets listing booked seats. For interactive UX, buyers can hover seats to view seat information in a tooltip, while you use row labels to quickly distinguish sections within the plan.

Main Features
