Custom Fields in Event Tickets

[Hugh]

Is it possible to add custom fields to event tickets to capture additional information from customers. for example, if the event includes a t-shirt, could I add a field to allow the customer to select their shirt size?

Hey Hugh!

There’s not a method inside the plugins at this time to build these sorts of custom fields; in other words, nothing in the options panel you could use to build these custom fields (on tickets, anyways – Events Calendar Pro does have this feature but just for events specifically, and not tickets).

So you could build custom fields but at this time it would unfortunately require custom coding. While we are not able to help with custom code here, “tickets” are really just a post type within WordPress so all of the meta-related functions like get_post_meta() can be used for custom coding “Custom fields” functionality → https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/get_post_meta/

I hope this information is helpful; let me know!
