If you are using event espresso 3 then you can simply use existing shortcode

[ATTENDEE_NUMBERS event_id=1 type=num_attendees]

If you are using event espresso 4 then you can paste following code in functions.php file of child theme or create separate plugin

add_shortcode('EVENT_ATTENDEE_NUMBER','fun_display_attendee_number');
function fun_display_attendee_number($atts)
{
  global $wpdb;
  $event_id = $atts['event_id'];
  $registration_table =  $wpdb->prefix.'esp_registration';
  $count = $wpdb->get_var("SELECT COUNT(REG_ID) FROM $registration_table WHERE EVT_ID='$event_id'");
  return 'Number of registrations: '. $count;
}

​And call shortcode as ​[EVENT_ATTENDEE_NUMBER event_id=1]

​You use these shortcodes in description area of event.​

[ESPRESSO_EVENT_ATTENDEES] will pull in the contacts for the event, not the datetime. So if you have multiple datetimes with registrations, all of the contacts across all of those datetimes will be shown.

The above is true when no datetime_id is passed to the shortcode, which you can not do as you need it to dynamically pull the registrations value for each datetime as it becomes the next one.

So you want to be able to do something like this – http://take.ms/D5FPo

Which then parses to – http://take.ms/wYO0A

If so you can do that using this:

Note that we can not provide support for this, I it a function I have adapted from something similar I had created previously, if you require something more than this you may need to contact a developer.

When [ESPRESSO_EVENT_ATTENDEES] is used outside of the EE Event description and is not passed an event ID it will pull in the next upcoming event (not datetime) and show all contacts for that event.

Your looking for a specific datetime within an event, so [ESPRESSO_EVENT_ATTENDEES] is actually working as expected, it shows all contacts registered onto a specific event across all datetimes.

Pulling counts for a specific datetime and for a specfic registration status is currently not something Event Espresso supports by default. Also note that a single datetime can have multiple tickets assigned to it, the count then needs to take into consideration all the registrations across all of those tickets assigned to the datetime.

I’ve created a new shortcodes based on my previous version, this shortcode pulls all of the registrations a assigned to all tickets within the next upcoming datetime of an event.

By default it will return the approved registrations, you can change this using ‘status=”all”‘ within the shortcode, for example:

[NEXT_UPCOMING_DATETIME_REG_VALUE status=”all”]

The will still exclude registrations with a status of ‘incomplete’ because they do not apply to the event at all (there are no contact details at all within those registrations)

You can also pass any of individual statuses you can with [ESPRESSO_EVENT_ATTENDEES], such as:

[NEXT_UPCOMING_DATETIME_REG_VALUE status=”RPP”]

Would be a count of Pending Payment registrations.

This is exactly what I want, I am using it within the event, but it is listing everyone registered for all future events not just the next upcoming one.

That isn’t what you want, you want the registrants for the next upcoming datetime, not the whole event. Your using the shortcode within an event post, so [ESPRESSO_EVENT_ATTENDEES] is using that Events ID and displaying the registrants for that whole event which is what its intended for.

Currently there isn’t a shortcode that will pull in the next upcoming datetimes attendees.

On your new shortcode there is and error on the first line:

Thanks. That was a pasting error, fixed now.

Hi Denise,

Just letting you know I’m working on this and will be in touch shortly via your support token.

I also like the the bottom text that breaks down each payment group.

That’s just multiples of [NEXT_UPCOMING_DATETIME_REG_VALUE] from above, here is the content of that event:

The next upcoming event has: [NEXT_UPCOMING_DATETIME_REG_VALUE status=”RPP”] Pending Payment registrations

The next upcoming event has: [NEXT_UPCOMING_DATETIME_REG_VALUE] Approved registrations

The next upcoming event has: [NEXT_UPCOMING_DATETIME_REG_VALUE status=”all”] registrations

No you don’t need to remove the REG_VALUE shortcodes.

The problem was the shortcodes all had <wbr /> within them, like this – http://take.ms/88MQp

I switched the editor to text mode to see that.

Also I left some debug code in the new shortcode, I’ve removed that from your install, it didn’t prevent the shortcode from working, but it wasn’t needed 🙂

Can you check it over an make sure its working as expected now please?

No problem 🙂 I’ glad its working.

Just let us know if you have any further questions.
