Show event address only on Emailed ticket

[Alexis Melvin]

I need to show the event address only after a ticket purchase is complete. I have been trying to add the address to the ticket that will be emailed, but so far have not figured out how to do this.

Useing Event Tickets Plus and Woocommerce.

I accomplished what I needed by making an image of the address information and loading it as the Ticket Header Image. But, I suspect there is a better way.

Hi, Alexis. Creative solution!

Please reference our Themer’s Guide for /wp-content/plugins/event-tickets/src/views/tickets/email.php

You might not even need that though; you might just be able to use one of the hooks in that file, such as tribe_tickets_ticket_email_ticket_bottom

Here’s a code snippet that you could use to get started with your own customization.

You could use tribe_get_coordinates() or a similar function from that same file to get the event venue’s location information.

If you want to include a map image, you’ll likely want to use https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/static-maps/

Please let me know how this goes for you.

Thanks for the suggestions but i don’t think these will give me what I need.
If I understand these solutions suggestions correctly, they would change the format for all of my ticket emails, not just the ones that need to send the secret address. I need something that will allow me to select which events need special information added to the Ticket Email.

So far my best solution is to use the header image upload. I will go to the Suggest a Feature forum and request that in addition to being able to upload a Header Image for each ticket email we get the ability to upload a text block to be displayed just below the Header image.

Your email.php file could have some logic “if event ID = 280, then output X” — or “if event has Additional Field = “private venue”, then output X”

You could even use an Additional Field entering the content per event, like a text field, and then the custom email.php file could output whatever’s in that Additional Field.

Please let me know if you have any follow-up questions on this topic.
