Is it possible to import tickets with events?

[liveroomescape]

Hi,

Im just trying to figure out a way to create a bunch of events with an individual ticket for each event. is there a column i can map tickets to?

If not, is there any possible chance anyone might be able to point me in the right direction for modifying the import script so that i can import ticket data into the events meta data or wheverever tickets are stored?

Thanks

Would it be possible to create a csv file and then import it directly into the database perhaps? i suppose id need to have a look at where exactly tickets are stored

Hi!

This sounds like a great idea (and we’re always open to new feature requests) but I’m afraid that, right now, it’s just not something the plugin is intended to do.

The best I can really suggest is taking a peek at the-events-calendar/lib/io/csv/classes/TribeEventsImporter_ColumnMapper.php to see how column mapping is executed but, at this time, I feel a custom solution is likely to be best for you.

Good luck!

Thanks for your response.

Would you be able to give me a push in the right direction. I think i should be able to import data directly into the database and bypass the import feature.

Can you give me an idea of where the data for WooTickets is kept?

Does tribe do custom solutions if so what would a estimate be on something like this?

I’m afraid that typically we do not – but if you want a list of suitable freelancers/independent devs to feel free to email us and we’ll provide you with one 🙂

It’s pretty much all maintained in the posts and postmeta tables. The best way to build a picture of the relationships (other than studying the code) is to create a few events and some tickets – then look at the entries that were created in those tables and see how they link together.

I definitely wish you luck with this, but unfortunately we’re not going to be able to help further with a custom dev task like this one.

Thanks again 🙂
