In the events portion of our site, we use a custom field for “Tickets Link” — this is a URL to a separate site through which we sell the actual tickets to our events. This is working great on all of our events except for recurring events. For example, we might have the same show run on four days across two weekends (so, Friday & Saturday of Weekend 1 + Friday & Saturday of Weekend 2).<\/p>\n

We can create the event with multiple dates without a problem; but we only get ONE instance of the ‘tickets link’ custom field per event listing. The question is: is there a way to have a unique entry for the custom field for each of the recurring instances of an event? So, a unique ‘tickets link’ URL for each day (Friday & Saturday of Weekend 1 + Friday & Saturday of Weekend 2) of the series?<\/p>\n

Yes, I do realize that if we separate the series of recurring events into stand-alone events, then we can have a unique tickets link URL for each – but I’d like to find a way to keep the series as a single, recurring event (for easier management\/editing), but have a unique URL in the ‘tickets link’ field for each.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1220341","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\nCustom Field for Recurring Event -<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/theeventscalendar.com\/support\/forums\/topic\/custom-field-for-recurring-event\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Custom Field for Recurring Event -\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"In the events portion of our site, we use a custom field for “Tickets Link” — this is a URL to a separate site through which we sell the actual tickets to our events.
