Need Paypal receipt to show event date along with event title

Our events have multiple date/times and we would like the selected event date/time shown on the Paypal invoice along with the event title. We saw mention of this for EE3 but no specific code and nothing mentioned for EE4 which is what we are using.

Hi there,

I can check to see if this is possible. May I ask are you using PayPal Express, PayPal Pro, standard, or Payflow?

PayPal Express with EE4

You can change what’s sent to PayPal by adding some code to your website. Here’s a link to a code example:

https://gist.github.com/joshfeck/9805da8ac5afff20e6ef7d331c79e08b#file-paypal_event_name_and_last_related_datetime-php

You can add the first snippet from the above URL to a functions plugin. The first one there adds the event name and the last related datetime associated with the registration. You’ll need to activate the plugin on the WP > Plugins page after you add the code to the plugin.

Thanks Josh. Can you recommend a Functions plugin that will work with this?

If you click the link for the functions plugin link Josh posted above it takes you to a tutorial for you to create a custom functions plugin:
