Adding custom fields

[wickedsimple]

I would like to have a registration page that the ticket buyer completes with different fields (it’s a registration page for a class and I’m using WooCommerce Tickets for the purchase of the “ticket price” for the class). How can I accomplish this so that they buyer completes all of the required fields and then pays?

Howdy wickedsimple,

You could do this by leveraging the WooCommerce API. Basically you would want to intecept any product in the “Tickets” category upon checkout, and redirect them to your form. Upon successful submission of that form, you could then send them back to the checkout page along with some extra info telling your gatekeeper/interceptor script that they have filled it out succesfully, then you can process the order and return the result. This is going to require a good bit of programming thought.

You might also be able to accomplish what you want with some WooCommerce plugins, perhaps this one: http://www.woothemes.com/products/woocommerce-checkout-add-ons/

Those are the only two opions I can think of. Does that all make sense? Anything I can clarify or perhaps some additional questions I can answer? Please let me know. Cheers!

Thanks, Brook! Yeah….the programming for the API is going to be over my head!! But I think that maybe one of the plugins you suggested will do the trick! Many thanks!

Excellent, Donna! Glad to hear I could be of some help. I am glad custom programming was not the only answer. Cheers!

Please feel free to open a new topic should you need anything else in the future. I am going to archive this one since it is resolved. Cheers!
