Is it possible to get the basic details if an event into Infusionsoft to trigger activities like remember course sms, follow up about the event
I can’t seem to see details like event data in Infusionsoft

Hi MK,

Yes this is possible to send along by using the
FHEE__EED_Infusionsoft__save_infusionsoft_attendee__extra_attendee_data
filter hook.

There is some example code in this gist:

Hi MK,

A person that has some website FTP and PHP skills, not necessarily a developer type person, should be able to copy, paste, and adapt the code we provide. We recommend placing the code into a functions plugin or into your WordPress child theme’s functions.php file.

thanks for the info, thats really cool, as you know the infusionsoft addon puts all the data in the orders area, can we have the date and time data from EE go to the custom fields in the order either in place of the custom field of the contact, or both preferably, can you provide modified code to send the date and time to custom field in the orders area and hopefully leave the contact record custom fields….

thanks in advance

Hi MK,

I checked and I don’t see any filter hooks that will accommodate your idea. This means that the IS add-on would need additional hooks before data from Event Espresso can be passed to custom fields in the order.

As 99% of all the data goes to orders, and outside of the title you don’t have data on event time and date , could you speak to Seth and see if this makes sense to add.
Let me know your thoughts – hopefully you see as a good addition.
As with current option to custom field of the contact it gets overridden by next event. And it’s easy to copy the event data once it’s in the order area custom fields to the contact, as when you bring contact back to order contact there is only one contact, matching back from contact to order is harder as which order….when there are multiple orders
