Add images & videos to event page

Hi,

I would like to have additional “description” section after the “ticket selector” and before the “venue” section where I can add sponsor logos and testimonial videos. How can I achieve this as I still want to keep the original “description” section before the ticket selector to have the event sales copy.

Thanks,
Ash

Hi Ash,

You can do this with the Advanced Custom Fields plugin & a bit of custom code. First, you install the ACF plugin, then add a field group and a custom field. This can be set to only appear when the post_type is espresso_events.

Then, you add some custom code like this to your custom site plugin:

add_action(
  'AHEE__ticket_selector_chart__template__after_ticket_selector',
  'my_custom_field_display_after_tickets',
  10,
  2
);

function my_custom_field_display_after_tickets($EVT_ID, $event) {
  if(!function_exists('the_field')) {
    return;
  }
  the_field('text_area', $EVT_ID);
}

In the above example the field name is text_area, yours will likely be different.

You can add the above to a functions plugin or into your WordPress child theme’s functions.php file.

Thanks for the information Josh. I implemented what you suggested and the new section now appears – BUT it correctly appears after the ticket selector ….but BEFORE the REGISTER button. How do I get my new custom field to appear after the REGISTER button?

OK in that case you could do this instead:

add_action(
  'AHEE_event_details_before_venue_details',
  'my_custom_field_display_after_tickets',
  10
);

function my_custom_field_display_after_tickets($post) {
  if(!function_exists('the_field')) {
    return;
  }
  the_field('text_area', $post->ID);
}
