Ticket select as dropdown instead of table?

    Is there a way to make the ticket selection a dropdown instead of a table display? They can only currently purchase 1 as the quantity but would be nice to be able to select from a dropdown. We have several ticket options and it makes the page really long. It’s a dev site and has a coming soon page so you wouldn’t be able to see it without admin login. I turned off the table display in the settings but as soon as I add more than one ticket option, it puts it back into a table.

    thanks!

    Hi Kabney,
    EM User here too 🙂

    You would need to modify the ticket-list.php template for that. It will take some custom coding, though.

    First:
    Copy the file /wp-content/plugins/events-manager/templates/forms/bookingform/tickets-list.php
    to: /wp-content/themes/YOUR THEME FOLDER/plugins/events-manager/forms/bookingform/tickets-list.php
    (Make sure you use the correct path, otherwise the file will not be read.)

    There (in the copied file) you can edit it to your liking and keep it save from EM updates. Note: if you theme is updated, it will still be lost, so it’s best to use a child theme. 🙂

    ok, I will see what I can do. No option available out of the box though huh?

    Nope, which is fairly logical, because “normally” one can buy more than one ticket 😉 And you simply cannot have a dropdown of a dropdown…
    Well… There is a thing called “linked events” for drop downs interacting with each other, but that is hard to implement while maintaining the overall flexibility EM offers. Linked Event are quite form specific. 😉

    Tip: I think you would need to hard code the 1 ticket in the template file as you will removing that option from the booking form.

    sorry as Patrick mentioned above, you need custom coding or modify templates to make this work.
