I would like to be able to distinguish between total attendees and guests.

Is there a file on the plugin that I can override and change some of the strings such as this one: “Please submit your RSVP information, including the total number of guests”
thanks

Hi,
I found a file that explains how to change strings in the Events Calendar.
https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/k/change-the-wording-of-any-bit-of-text-or-string/
How is this done (what functions) in the Events Tickets plugin to change text strings in the RSVP functionality?
Its like to change these strings if possible:
Please submit your RSVP information, including the total number of guests
Number of Guests
thanks,
Steve
Hello Steve,
Thanks for reaching out to us! Apologies for the delay in my response here. Appreciate you providing me details on what you are trying to accomplish.
For this one, you would need to do a template customization and would require you a bit of knowledge with PHP and CSS. See the URL here to learn more: https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/k/customizing-template-files-2/.
This is the template file you need to override where the text “Please submit your RSVP information, including the total number of guests.” is located: event-tickets/src/views/v2/rsvp/form/going/title.php.
Override the template in your own theme by creating a file at: [your-child-theme]/tribe/tickets/v2/rsvp/form/going/title.php
Let me know how it goes, I’d be glad to help you out further.
Best,
Abz

Wow. This is perfect. Excactly what I needed. I’m very confortable with css and php.
I made the changes. No problem.
Since I also needed to change the string “Number of Guests”, I had to edit event-tickets/src/views/v2/rsvp/form/fields/quantity.php.
I overrode that as well under my theme.
This worked great.
Thanks again for you help.
I’m all set. At least for now.
Do I run the risk of these changes causing a problem with future updates to the event-tickets plugin? What about when I upgrade to event tickets plus since I’m using the free version now?

Hi Steve,
Nice! That’s good to know, appreciate you letting me know.
Do I run the risk of these changes causing a problem with future updates to the event-tickets plugin?
No, that’s why we recommend creating a child theme: https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/k/how-to-create-a-child-theme-and-why/.
What about when I upgrade to event tickets plus, since I’m using the free version now?
For the pro/plus versions we have different templates for the added features, you could also update them according to your needs for customization. Please refer to the template files as well.
If you require additional help, please do not hesitate to contact us or create another ticket for other topics.
No worries! Have a good day.
Best,
Abz
