hey,
i'm using events calendar + tickets for events.
i want to enable users to post events - but can't find the ticketing/location in cred.
i tried looking in toolset settings-frontend-hidden custom fields, but they weren't there.
do i need to register them somehow for them to appear?
thanks!

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Well - could you please tell me when you say ticket - is ticket is post type? What exactly you want to do with CRED form - do you want to connect event with ticket?

Could you please describe all plugin involved in this workflow and exact requirement with test case example that will eventually help me to guide you in right direction.

Hey Minesh,

The plugin creates events with image, time, date, description, location. The ticketing addon adds an option to add RSVP with capacity and set it between dates. attached screenshots.

The events are cpts. The tickets might be, but I think they are not public.
Anyway CRED sees only he event title, category, image, description.

Cheers!

Well - to create an entire event using CRED from - you need to map each field of event plugin as well as it's addon tickets plugin in such a way that it should save in database correctly.

You need to investigate how native event with ticket information stored in database and then you should create desired fields with CRED generic field and map such fields with your event plugin fields and save it.

Well - you should create a test event with all the information and try to check with database tables posts, postmeta, termmeta etc..etc.. in order to investigate in database or better ask your plugin support how you can map each event field.
