How to add # of available tickets to event title?

[Brian]

I’m trying to put the number of available event tickets into the title of my list & single event theme though I’m a bit uncertain as to what line of code I should place to show the available ticket #’s.

Any help is appreciated.

Hey Brian,

Custom coding is unfortunately not something we can help with 🙁

However, I would recommend simply diving into the plugin code for Event Ticket Plus itself and look for where the plugin itself shows the ticket count for a given event. If you then basically just “steal” this code, and copy and paste it into your own theme or a custom plugin, it should work well.

To be a tad more specific, what you could do with that code is apply it to the “the_title” filter within WordPress, which you can read about here: https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/the_title

That filter will apply the code to the titles of all events. So, something like this for example:

if ( function_exists( 'tribe_get_events' ) ) {

add_filter( 'the_title', 'tribe_support_1049144' );

function tribe_support_1049144( $title ) {

// Just return the normal title if this is not an event.
if ( ! tribe_is_event() ) {
return $title;
}

// Here would be the code for retrieving ticket count etc.

return $title;
}
}


Are you confident enough in your coding abilities to take things from here? Let me know. We cannot help with customizations but I will try to make the time to assist more specifically if possible and/or if needed.

Sincerely,
George
