A Chobble Tickets site can provide a homepage, your event listings, news, content pages and an optional contact page. If you already have a website, you can switch the public site off and share booking links directly.
Write a page, give it a name and choose the web address it lives at. There is no separate step to publish it: it is at that address from the moment you save it, and the site's navigation offers it beside Home and Listings.
A page's content is written in Markdown, and it carries an ordered list of items: sub-pages, listings, and groups.
These items form a navigable menu, so a page about workshops can link straight to the workshop listings and to further sub-pages. You choose the order the pages are offered in, and you can take one down by typing its name to confirm.
You set the site title, which appears as the main heading on every public page, and can upload a header image. The homepage text and contact page text are written in Markdown.
The site serves its own robots.txt, which tells search engines which
parts of the site they may index. While the public site is switched on,
it also serves a sitemap at /sitemap.xml. The
sitemap lists the homepage, every content page and news post, and
every listing and group that is not hidden, so search engines can find
new events without waiting to follow a link. Both use your custom
domain once it has passed validation.
The site renders in a light or dark theme, and a toggle controls whether links are underlined. For anything beyond that, you can write your own CSS, which is served to visitors at /custom.css. The site can also run on your own custom domain.
Every public page link offers Share, QR code and Embed actions, so each page can be passed on, printed as a code, or placed inside another website with the embeddable widget.
The contact page appears when it has contact content or an enabled form. The form can be switched on or off from the admin panel. Spam protection is available through Botpoison, a service that makes each sender's browser solve a small computational puzzle before the form submits.
If you only want Chobble Tickets for bookings, you can turn the public site off. Public pages then redirect away, but direct ticket links keep working, so you can link to bookings from your existing website.
