Hi (Tony?),
I understand that after registering, clients receive a thank you note. Where can I change the content?
Can I include a ‘Submit’ button? Reason is that in the thank-you letter we want to include some additional questions that need to be sent back to us.
Thanks for your trouble,
Kind regards, Rob

Hi Rob,

When you say a submit button, what is that submitting? I’m assuming a form but that would need to be managed outside of Event Espresso as EE can’t add additional questions on the thank you page.

So yes, it is possible, but I’m just checking you are aware that this submit/form would be outside of EE itself?

Hi Rob,

My Apologies for the delayed reply.

So, yes, this is possible but will likely need some PHP to do it. How comfortable with PHP are you?

Just to confirm, is it the text within the yellow bow on the thank you page you want to change?

We have a bunch of hooks on the thank you page which can allow for this depending on where you want to display the form.

One option here is to use something like Ninja Forms to create a custom form within that, then call that form on the page to display, that takes most of the work out of this for you it just leaves pulling the details from the transaction/registration into that form.

Hi Tony,
I am not comfortable with PHP (at all 🙂 ).
I will look into that. For now I need to rewrite the thank you text. I only see the shortcode. Where can I edit the actual text?
I will look into Ninja Forms.
Thanks for all the trouble,
Kind regards,
Rob

Where can I edit the actual text?

Without PHP or using translations, you can’t.

With PHP it looks something like this:

or

https://gist.github.com/joshfeck/9e50f1757bf0533c95917a69e758af4b

The site is in English so I assume your not using any translations, right?

If you are asking me to point you in the direction of modifying core files, it’s not something we support so I’m not going to help with doing that.

The hook above can do exactly the same thing as modifying the file itself, without needed to hack up core to do it.

You create a custom functions plugin:

https://eventespresso.com/wiki/create-site-specific-plugin-wordpress-site/

Pleace the code on lines 4-7 from this function into that plugin and then change the string that is returned to be whatever you want it to be. Hacking up core to do this when the filter is available is just going to lead to more problems for you in the long run.

Hi Tony, I will look into the reply this evening (I don’t know what you mean with ‘.. the hook above..’, but for now I have a more pressing issue. A language one ….. I will open it in a new support question. It is quite urgent.
Kind regards, Rob

Regarding ‘the hook above’, WordPress uses ‘hooks’, which is basically a way for you to ‘hook in’ and change something without having the modify the file itself.

So referring to using the functions I included above rather than editing the files directly.
