Display Event Meta in Booking History

[Omayr McAdam]

I want to be able to display some event meta (such as category, img etc..) in the booking history.
So far im just running into brick walls…
I have used the booking-history as a template but need to be able to pull the event_id (as a number) and use it with eo_get_booking_meta.

Any pointers will be very much appreciated

Hi Omayr,

You can get the event (post ID) corresponding to the booking with:

$event_id = eo_get_booking_meta( $booking_id, 'event_id' );

(codex). In the booking-history template you can get the $booking_id from get_the_ID() or $post->ID. If you are selling tickets by date and want to get the occurrence booked;

$occurrence_id = eo_get_booking_meta( $booking_id, 'occurrence_id' );

This is 0 if booking by series. You can then use $event_id (and $occurrence_id) in the various event functions. Things like featured image and category can be retrieved used $event_id and the standard WordPress functions:

• get_the_post_thumbnail( $event_id ) – http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_the_post_thumbnail
• get_the_terms( $event_id, 'event-category') – http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_the_terms
