@iamareebjamal This issue was regarding the attachments. When the email was successfully sent, the tickets are attached. Why was this re-opened?

[iamareebjamal]

Because it's still not fixed?

[iamareebjamal]

The generated folder is not mounted in a volume and hence, each and every generated ticket gets deleted on each container restart and even if not, the generated PDF is not accessible to celery.

[iamareebjamal]

For urgent fix, at least the current logic needs to be fixed with volume properly mounted.

As a follow up issue, all static and media URLs need to be fixed once and for all. No hardcoded URL formatting should be present, nor the URls should be stored in DB. The layout of static storage will be changed to

media/
  static/
  uploads/
  generated/

Next, a script is to be made to generate all missing PDFs of attendees, tickets and orders. And to aggregate old data in proper places

We are not sending the tickets anymore. Therefore closing the issue.
