Adding "add to cart" functionality outside of event page

[Andrew Bacon]

I found this thread about this, but the instructions in the thread are so incomplete we don’t have any idea how to begin to “use the tribe_get_ticket_form() function to call the ticket form.”

How do you do that? What is the syntax?

Hi Northern Pacific Digital!

At time of writing the URL you provided doesn’t resolve/never finishes loading and so I’m afraid I cannot take a look at this time.

I’m also sorry that the approach outlined in the other topic wasn’t quite clear enough for you – but please do understand that when it comes to customization work we are generally limited to outlining a strategy and providing some helpful resources: the implementation is something you need to drive forward under your own steam.

I have to say that I think Geoff did a nice job of concisely parceling up the information in that other topic. Can you confirm which part is causing problems/isn’t clear enough – did you manage to set up a template override for instance and add the suggested function call?

What does your template override code like like at this point (can you share it via a Pastebin or Gist link)?

Thanks 🙂

I’m going to propose a different route here. How about adding the following snippet to your theme’s functions.php file or any other suitable location you might prefer:

Does that work for you?

Glad it worked 🙂

As a side note, please avoid using private replies unless you are sharing confidential information/URLs that you prefer not to share publicly — otherwise, topics become very confusing for other users researching them in the future 🙂

Can you tell me where front_end_tickets_form( ” ) is defined so I can get in and create another one that is formatted differently for the Events list?

We’d caution against modifying plugin code, since doing so can cause issues when you next update (amongst other things). If you want to view the source, though, simply open up:

wootickets/classes/class-wootickets.php

You can find the definition starting at line 473 (in our current release).
