Adding Event Date to Woocommerce

[Sheldon]

Hi There,

We’ve almost completed setup of our site with Events Calendar PRO, Tickets PRO and Woocommerce checkout. This is for a comedy club website, where there are 1 – 2 shows per day, with differing ticket prices per show.

Everything is setup correctly and we have the showtime and price setup for each individual ticket offered per daily event, however when I click on a ticket and continue into the WooCommerce flow, it only displays the showtime and price for the ticket, but not the event date. http://d.pr/i/1cGqa

This is problematic as the user clicks into their cart, but might not be sure what tickets are for what nights: http://d.pr/i/12gZK

I know I could probably add the date to the ticket description for each ticket, but I’m wondering if there is an easier way to get this date into the templates, from a code perspective. I also know you probably don’t provide much support on the WooCommerce side, but any direction / help would be appreciated!

Thanks.

Hi Sheldon,

Thanks for reaching out to us! Interesting question, as you already know we cannot provide much support on the Woo side of things but we can give this a try 😉

Try pasting this snippet in your functions.php file:


/* Add event date to Woo Cart */
function tribe_show_event_date_cart ( $item_data, $cart_item ) {

if ( ! class_exists('Tribe__Tickets_Plus__Commerce__WooCommerce__Main') ) return $item_data;

$tickets = Tribe__Tickets_Plus__Commerce__WooCommerce__Main::get_instance();

$event_id = get_post_meta( $cart_item['product_id'], $tickets->event_key, true );

if ( ! empty( $event_id ) ) {
$item_data[] = array(
'key' => 'Date',
'value' => tribe_get_start_time ( $event_id, tribe_get_date_format() )
);
}

return $item_data;
}

add_filter ( 'woocommerce_get_item_data', 'tribe_show_event_date_cart', 10, 2 );


Also, please note that tickets still don’t support recurring events!

Please let me know if the snippet works as expected,
Best,
Nico
