By default, users can RSVP to events as many times as they’d like. If you’d prefer to limit users to a single RSVP per person, you can make that happen with some customizations. You can add a snippet to limit the RSVP functionality and then create a template override to customize the appearance of the form once a user has already RSVP’ed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We’ll walk you through the steps here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prerequisites<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For this to work, you need to require users to log in before they RSVP. You can find the respective setting under Tickets > Settings > General<\/strong> tab.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Login<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The snippet<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The first thing you’ll want to do is add the following snippet to your functions.php file:<\/p>\n\n\n

\nadd_filter( 'tribe_tickets_get_ticket_max_purchase', function( $stock ) {\n\tif ( $stock < 1 ) {\n\t\treturn $stock;\n\t}\n\treturn 1;\n} );\n<\/pre><\/div>\n\n\n
This will limit the RSVP so that users can only submit a single RSVP at once.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Template override<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The next step in the process is to create a template override. If you’re not familiar with template overrides, check out this Knowledgebase article<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Create a file at: <\/p>\n\n\n\n
[your-theme]\/tribe\/tickets\/v2\/rsvp\/actions\/rsvp.php<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Add the following to that template to include a custom message if a user tries to purchase multiple RSVPs:<\/p>\n\n\n
\n<?php\n\/**\n * Block: RSVP\n * Actions - RSVP\n *\n * This is a template override for the following file:\n * event-tickets\/src\/views\/v2\/rsvp\/actions\/rsvp.php\n *\n * Place this template in your own theme by creating a file at:\n * [your-theme]\/tribe\/tickets\/v2\/rsvp\/actions\/rsvp.php\n *\n * See more documentation about our Blocks Editor templating system.\n *\n * @link https:\/\/evnt.is\/1amp Help article for RSVP & Ticket template files.\n *\n * @var Tribe__Tickets__Ticket_Object $rsvp The rsvp ticket object.\n *\n * @since 4.12.3\n * @version 4.12.3\n *\/\n\n$user = wp_get_current_user();\n$event_id = get_the_ID();\n\n\/** @var Tribe__Tickets__Tickets_View $tickets_view *\/\n$tickets_view = Tribe__Tickets__Tickets_View::instance();\n\n?>\n<div class="tribe-tickets__rsvp-actions-rsvp">\n\t<span class="tribe-common-h2 tribe-common-h6--min-medium">\n\t\t<?php esc_html_e( 'RSVP Here', 'event-tickets' ); ?>\n\t<\/span>\n\n    <?php if ( ! $tickets_view->has_rsvp_attendees( $event_id, $user->ID ) ) : ?>\n        <?php $this->template( 'v2\/rsvp\/actions\/rsvp\/going', [ 'rsvp' => $rsvp ] ); ?>\n\n        <?php $this->template( 'v2\/rsvp\/actions\/rsvp\/not-going', [ 'rsvp' => $rsvp ] ); ?>\n    <?php else : ?>\n        <p>Sorry - only one per customer!<\/p>\n    <?php endif; ?>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/pre><\/div>\n\n\n
The result<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
After setting this up, a user who has already RSVP’d to an event should see something like this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"Message<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Disable “Going” button<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
If instead, you’d prefer to disable the “Going” button entirely, you can use the following snippet instead:<\/p>\n\n\n
\n<?php\n\/**\n * Block: RSVP\n * Actions - RSVP - Going\n *\n * Override this template in your own theme by creating a file at:\n * [your-theme]\/tribe\/tickets\/v2\/rsvp\/actions\/rsvp\/going.php\n *\n * See more documentation about our Blocks Editor templating system.\n *\n * @link https:\/\/evnt.is\/1amp Help article for RSVP & Ticket template files.\n *\n * @var bool $must_login Whether the user has to login to RSVP or not.\n * @var Tribe__Tickets__Ticket_Object $rsvp The rsvp ticket object.\n *\n * @since 4.12.3\n * @version 4.12.3\n *\/\n$user = get_current_user_id();\n$tickets_view = \\Tribe__Tickets__Tickets_View::instance();\n$rsvp_count   = 0 < $tickets_view->count_rsvp_attendees( get_the_ID(), $user );\n$disabled = $must_login || $rsvp_count;\n?>\n\n<div class="tribe-tickets__rsvp-actions-rsvp-going">\n\t<button\n\t\tclass="tribe-common-c-btn tribe-tickets__rsvp-actions-button-going tribe-common-b1 tribe-common-b2--min-medium"\n\t\ttype="submit"\n\t\t<?php tribe_disabled( $disabled ); ?>\n\t>\n\t\t<?php echo esc_html_x( 'Going', 'Label for the RSVP going button', 'event-tickets' ); ?>\n\t<\/button>\n<\/div>\n<\/pre><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
