Access Value of a fieldsets

[Uwe Matern]

Hello from Germany,

we use event tickets and event tickets plus.
We also operate with fieldsets assigned to our tickets in order to access more detailed data of an attendee.

So the question is: Is there an option to access/query a certail value of a fieldset via php, e.g. a field labeled “full name”.

Best regards
Uwe

Hey!

Thanks for reaching out to our forusms, I’m not sure if you mean Custom Field when you say Fieldset, if so you can use the function called:

tribe_get_custom_field

Which accepts the label and the ID of the event you want to access a value, you can take another look at the documentation page of this function as well.

Please let me know if you have any other questions about this issue or if there’s anything else I can do for you.

Thanks,
Crisoforo

Good Morning Crisoforo,

no, I don’t mean Custom field.
I’m talking about additional information assigned to a ticket. In tribe ticket plus there is the option to gather additional attendee information via so called fieldsets, e.g. the full name of an attendee. So the request is to access the values of fieldset by using php or a tribe function.

Best regards
Uwe

Thanks for clarify this. Fieldsets are stored as a regular post types inside of WordPress so you can use native functions from WordPress to query on post types such as WP_Query or get_posts.  For example to get all the fieldsets you can use something like:

$templates = get_posts( array(
 'post_type' => 'ticket-meta-fieldset',
 'orderby' => 'title',
 'order' => 'ASC',
 'posts_per_page' => -1,
 ) );

You can use any of the functions mentioned above to have a more narrow search and filters as well, let me know if you have more questions about this or if there is anything else I can do for you.

Thanks,
Crisoforo

Hi Uwe,

Sorry for the delay!

In outline, an approach like this should work for you:

$attendee_id = $ticket['qr_ticket_id'];
$field_slug  = 'postal-code';

$fields = (array) get_post_meta( $attendee_id, Tribe__Tickets_Plus__Meta::META_KEY, true );

if ( isset( $fields[ $field_slug ] ) ) {
    echo $fields[ $field_slug ];
}

You might of course need to adjust various components to match your specific needs. Does that help at all?

Hi Barry,

this is absolutely great! It works perfect. Many thanks.

Best regards
Uwe
