Add date for ticket in WooCommerce cart.

[Erick]

I have found a few support forums with this question but when I followed the instructions of this one (https://theeventscalendar.com/support/forums/topic/show-event-date-in-woocommerce-cart-next-to-ticket/) but the defaulted date kept coming up as Dec. 16th of last year.

I am just trying to add the date of the event on the cart screen. Help please 🙂

Howdy Martin,

I would love to assist here.

Are you trying to do add the date for a recurring event? The instructions George sent you make it possible to add the date for the first event in the series. You can even do this by using a snippet like this, rather than directly modifying the files as he outlined:

However, it is unfortunately not possible to add the date for the event the customer was viewing when they clicked add to cart.If you have ever added a ticket to a recurring event, you have probably noticed the little message that says tickets do not yet fully support recurring events. This is a side effect of that. Basically all tickets added to a recurring event are stored with the same date, the start date of the first event in the series. Thus, when you attempt to get the date for a ticket, it will always return the date for the first event in the series rather than the date your customer was looking at.

Does that sound like the issue you’re facing?

Cheers!
