Hi,
I understand what you are trying to do by having one ticket stock, but multiple ticket prices.
It is not an option I am afraid. It is not setup to deal with variants.
I am not sure it is a matter of “hacking views/wootickets/tickets.php” There maybe more involved changes to get it to work on many different templates.
Someone has requested it as feature on our UserVoice page.
You can add your voice to theirs, but I do not know about when or if that option would be added.
We can provide some help on customization, but not much on a customization of this size.
Let me know if you would like anything else.
Thanks
