Sell seated events and keep the tables you promised. Prefer simple tickets? No floor plan is needed at all.
Choose seated at tables and the event holds the areas you pick, plus set-up and clear-down time, so restaurant bookings can’t take them. Each order is given a table that fits its party, and you can move parties on a seating board. Don’t need any of that? Sell ordinary tickets against a simple total number of places, with no floor plan involved.
No. Choose general admission and you sell tickets against a total number of places, with no tables involved. The floor plan only comes into it when you choose seated at tables.
When you publish a seated date, the tables you chose, plus the set-up and clear-down time you set, are held for the event. Restaurant bookings can't take them, and Taybl warns you about any booking already in the way before you publish.
Each order is given a table that fits its party at the moment of sale, combining tables where your join rules allow. Buyers never pick a table or see your layout, and you can move or lock any party on the seating board.
