If someone adds items to the cart, and then proceeds to the cart, the ticket dropdown defaults to 0 for each item. Is it possible to have this default to 1 so they don’t have to go through the process a second time… plus it throws an error if they proceed to the next step without selecting from this dropdown.. people are getting confused.
Thanks.

Hi there, It is set to zero to allow people to choose one price option over another. For example, if an event has three prices and they have the default set to 1, people would have to set the selector back to 0 to de-select the price type selections they do not want.

Thanks Josh, we’re only using one price type for each event so is this supposed to still show up?

Hi there,

You can change the default behavior of the ticket dropdown with a bit of jQuery. For example, you can open up /templates/shopping_cart.php and add this code just below the closing form tag:

<script>jQuery(document).ready(function(){
    jQuery(".price_id").val(1);
    jQuery('#event_espresso_refresh_total').trigger('click');
});
</script>

What this will do is change the default price selector to 1 and then trigger a refresh so that the price updates automatically.
