Show event name in Basket & Checkout

[Patrick Hathaway]

We use ETP and WooCommerce.

If we add tickets to an Event, when you add a ticket(s) to the basket, rather than showing the event name it just says the ticket name.

Is there a way to add the event name as well?

Hello jammycustard,

Great question! It’s not possible out of the box, but there is this snippet I hear of. 🙂

Paste the following snippet into your child theme’s functions.php file:

/**
* Example for adding event data to WooCommerce checkout for Events Calendar tickets.
* @link http://theeventscalendar.com/support/forums/topic/event-title-and-date-in-cart/
*/
add_filter( 'woocommerce_cart_item_name', 'example_testing', 10, 3 );
function example_testing( $title, $values, $cart_item_key ) {
$ticket_meta = get_post_meta( $values['product_id'] );
$event_id = absint( $ticket_meta['_tribe_wooticket_for_event'][0] );
if ( $event_id ) {
$title = sprintf( '%s for %s', $title, get_permalink( $event_id ), get_the_title( $event_id ) );
}
return $title;
}

This is the before and after screenshot:

Let me know if this helps.
