Event Ticket Plus documentation mentions slug or Event ID. Where do I find them?

[thegrid]

I have events that share names, repeat, and are not unique identifiers. I need to import my tickets using the slug or event ID. I tried using the slug /event/eventname/year-month-day (which is what is displayed in my browser url, however, all rows are rejected when I try to import them using the tickets import tool.
Questions:
What does a proper slug look like.?
Where can I find the Event ID (without using PHP).

Hi Guys,

I forgot to mention in the title that I’m using the Events Tickets Plus .csv importer. In the importer documentation it mentions that it’s possible to use Name, Event ID, or Slug as the first import field. Since my names aren’t unique and repeat, I’m opting for using the Event ID or Slug. I can’t find examples of either for the import tool. I have tried my best guess of the slug to no avail.

Hey there!

Interesting question. You’re right that tickets can be imported in the CSV Importer and attached to an event. I think where this breaks down aa bit (at least in this specific case) is that recurring events do not currently support tickets — so, in other words, importing the ticket to a single event is the only possibility art the moment.

That said, you can find the event ID in WordPress itself. One way I do it is to hover over the event title in the admin area and see what ID number is in the URL at the bottom of the screen (screenshot).

Does this help answer your question? Please let me know. 🙂

Cheers!
Geoff
