Change the heading / word 'Tickets' on a event page

[David Forshaw]

Hi Guys
I am using the WooTickets plugin and my client has asked if we can change the heading / word ‘Tickets’ on a event page.
This is the heading that is just above the WooTickets tickets section.
Here is an example page: http://closerangetraining.livepreview.com.au/course-details/american-red-cross-adult-pediatric-first-aidcpraed-4/
Any direction would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers guys
David

Hi David,

The first thing to do is read our Themer’s Guide to get the background for setting up template overrides and other related info.

Then, grab a copy of the tickets view:

wp-content/plugins/wootickets/views/wootickets/tickets.php

Now set it up within a template overrides folder inside your theme’s directory (again, please refer to the Themer’s Guide for details on setting this up). You should end up with a duplicate of the above file at:

wp-content/themes/YOURTHEME/tribe-events/wootickets/tickets.php

Within your own copy, please locate the following line of code (on or around line 81):

<h2 class="tribe-events-tickets-title"><?php _e( 'Tickets', 'tribe-wootickets' );?></h2>

Change it to:

<h2 class="tribe-events-tickets-title"> Participants </h2>

Does that help?

Hi Barry. Thanks for the awesome explanation.

I have read https://theeventscalendar.com/support/documentation/events-calendar-themers-guide/ and followed your instructions however the change is still not reflected. It still reads ‘Ticket’s’

Now it worked when i edited ‘/wp-content/plugins/wootickets/views/tickets.php’ so that’s great. But that’s not best practice as we know.

So I tried the Themers Guide suggestions and created the folders in ‘/wp-content/themes/Karma/tribe-events/wootickets’ and had no luck.

I even tried adding it to ‘/wp-content/themes/Karma/tribe-events/wootickets’ (becuase we are using a child theme. Still no luck. Still it read ‘Tickets’ Here is an example link: http://closerangetraining.livepreview.com.au/course-details/american-red-cross-adult-pediatric-first-aidcpraed-3/

Any ideas? Anything that screams out at you that I am missing?

Cheers
David

Have you tried adding that directory to your child theme, rather than the Karma parent theme?

[David Forshaw]

Hi Barry
Yes i did. Sorry, my fault, I meant to say in the post above:

” I even tried adding it to ‘/wp-content/themes/karma-child-theme/tribe-events/wootickets’ (becuase we are using a child theme. Still no luck. Still it read ‘Tickets’”
So yes I tried both the theme and child theme folders.

Hi David: sorry for the confusion – I just realized you are still using WooTickets 1.0.1, in which case the above isn’t going to work.

[Barry]

Rather than locating the template override at CHILDTHEME/tribe-events/wootickets/tickets.php can you place it at CHILDTHEME/events/tickets.php and see if that works for you?
