Woo tickets

[Chris]

Hi
I’m using the events plugin with great success – I have a question about ticket descriptions

I’ve copied tickets.php to my theme so I can edit it….

I want to add a default description to each ticket as follows

1. if someone types a description when adding a ticket, show that
2. if they leave it blank then show a default message

ie replace this:
echo ‘<td class=”tickets_description”>’;
echo $ticket->description;
echo ‘</td>’;

with something like this (in English):

echo ‘<td class=”tickets_description”>’;
if DESCRIPTION IS NOT EMPTY {echo $ticket->description}
else if it is empty then {echo ‘some text’}
echo ‘</td>’;

I tried this:
echo ‘<td class=”tickets_description”>’;
if (!empty (post_excerpt) {echo $ticket->description;}
else {echo ‘hello’}
echo ‘</td>’;

but the only effect it had was to make each single event page blank (So I changed it back :))

Is this something anyone can help with at all?

Hi Chris. Thanks for your detailed question.

Instead of adding post_excerpt in there, you should be able to do this:

if ( ! empty ( $ticket->description ) ) { echo $ticket->description; }

Let me know how it goes!
