Sending Calendar links in confirmation emails

[tuberb]

I’m trying to customize the event registration confirmation emails to include links back to the site for Google and iCal calendar entries. There seem to be functions named tribe_get_gcal_link and tribe_get_ical_link; one of them says only use inside the loop (which is not the context) and the other seems to not be event specific.

Is there a built in function that will return the Google and iCal calendar links given an event ID?

Thanks,

Barry

Hi Barry,

Thanks for using our plugins. I can try to help out here.

I looked up the function and found this two functions.


echo Tribe__Events__Main::instance()->esc_gcal_url( tribe_get_gcal_link() );

echo esc_url( tribe_get_single_ical_link() );

You could add those to the ticket template:

the-events-calendar\src\views\tickets\email.php

To display the links after you follow the themer’s guide to move that template to your theme:

https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/themers-guide/

You can pass the event id to both I believe.

Those functions only provide a link so you will need to add them inside your html tags.

Cheers
