Event Category on Registration Page

I am making a custom template for the registration page and I was wondering if there is a template variable in order to display the event category.

Hi,

The $event variable stores most of the information.

It is probably easier to use this shortcode though http://staging.eventespresso.com/wiki/shortcodes-template-variables/#event-category as it just requires the event id and will grab all the event categories associated with the event for you

I’m editing registration_page_display.php and trying get it to display whatever the category of the current event is, but I’m not sure which variable to use. For example, to display the venue I would use <?php echo $venue_title; ?> Is there a similar variable to grab the category of whatever event is being displayed?

Hi,

There isn’t a variable liek that for the category, you would either need to pull the category ID out of the $event variable, or just use 

<?php echo do_shortcode('[CATEGORY_NAME event_id="'.$event_id.'"]'); ?>

in the template file. It will output the Category name.

Thanks, that worked. For future reference, how would I pull the category ID out of the $event variable?

One other thing: is there a way to put the category into the confirmation email? I tried the code above and it didn’t work.

Hi,

To display it would be

<?php echo $event->category_id; ?>

to add it to a variable would be

<?php $avariable = $event->category_id; ?>

$event is an object variable.

There isn’t a category email tag unfortunately. You could work around it by adding the Category name to a meta tag, a little bit more work, but other than that you would have to generate a new email tag which involves editing core files.

There is a full list of email tags available here http://staging.eventespresso.com/wiki/custom-email-tags/
