Can we hook a ticket purchase

[Fred]

Hi,

Does event Calendar have any functions or hooks available such as if I have my own system for selling tickets I can add a hook or a function to pass the data to the even the ticket was purchased.

So it keeps track of the users within Event Calendar ?

Thank you,
Frederick

Hey Fred,

To clarify, you have your own way for selling tickets on your site. What you’re looking to do is create tickets there and when they’re sold have them update the event with user that purchased the ticket?

If that’s correct, you wouldn’t need any hooks on our side to accomplish this. Overall, a basic approach might be:

• Create meta on the ticket to connect it to the event
• When sold, your ticket solution would need a hook that you could hook into
• Run a function on that hook to update post meta for the associated event
• This post meta could be an array of the users that have purchased

Let me know if this helps.

Thanks!
