Confirmation emails

[Squirrelhouse]

Hi Stephen,

A couple of questions please:-

1. Plugin confirmation emails are being sent from the WordPress Administration Email Address. How may I change this to a different email address?
2. I’d like to attach a PDF to confirmed bookings. How would I do that please?

Thanks
David

Hi David,

Details on how to change the sender of the confirmation emails can be found here: http://docs.wp-event-organiser.com/bookings/notification-emails/

In particular, the following code would allow you to change the email that confirmation emails are sent from, and which email is notified of a new/confirmed bookings:

function my_event_admin_email( $email ){
      //Change $email;
      return $email;        
}
add_filter( 'eventorganiser_admin_email', 'my_event_admin_email' );

As for attaching PDFs there is no feature provided for this, however, I have open sourced this plug-in which generates and attaches PDF tickets which you could re-purpose: https://bitbucket.org/stephenharris/event-organiser-pdf-tickets/src/master/

It comes with the health warning that this is code that hasn’t been looked at it or used in years. The recent commits were only to remove some comment-ed out code.

However, if you don’t want to generate PDFs on the fly and instead just attach a static PDF, it’s much simpler and you won’t need to the above extension.

 add_filter('eventorganiser_booking_confirmed_email_attachments', function($attachments, $booking_id ) {
     $attachments[] = WP_CONTENT_DIR . '/path/to/file.pdf';
     return $attachments;
 }, 10, 2);

Hi Stephen, Many thanks for these. For the PDF, it is a static PDF so something based on your code should work well. It is a different PDF depending on the Event Category slug so would this look to be about right within the filter :-

if ($event-category == 'efaw') {$attachments[] = WP_CONTENT_DIR . '/path/to/EFAW.pdf';
} elseif ($event-category == 'faw') {$attachments[] = WP_CONTENT_DIR . '/path/to/FAW.pdf';
} elseif ($event-category == 'fawr') {$attachments[] = WP_CONTENT_DIR . '/path/to/FAWR.pdf';
} else { }
return $attachments;

Sorry about the abortive attempts above to provide the code but I can confirm it works fine 🙂
Many thanks

There were further issues which Stephen helped me with and so for completeness the code should now be:-

add_filter('eventorganiser_booking_confirmed_email_attachments', function($attachments, $booking_id ) {
$event_id = eo_get_booking_meta( $booking_id, 'event_id' );
if (has_term('efaw', 'event-category', $event_id )) {
    $attachments[] = WP_CONTENT_DIR . '/path/to/EFAW.pdf';
} else if (has_term('faw', 'event-category', $event_id )) {
    $attachments[] = WP_CONTENT_DIR . '/path/to/FAW.pdf';
} else if (has_term('fawr', 'event-category', $event_id )) {
    $attachments[] = WP_CONTENT_DIR . '/path/to/FAWR.pdf';
}
return $attachments; }, 10, 2);
