How can I export these fields in bulk. The export is not including these additional fields. I can see them if I click into each booking which is not practical.
Thanks for reaching out to us.
To assist you better, could you please confirm whether you’re referring to booking fields or attendee fields for the export?
If you have any further questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us.
Booking fields
As of now, booking fields are visible when viewing individual bookings. And EventPrime allows for bulk export of the attendee fields. We highly encourage you to write to our support here for further details:http://theeventprime.com/support/
How can I disable the checkout fields.
I do not want to ask for the name on each ticket.
The user can skip this screen, but i want it to not show.
Thanks for reaching out to us.
You can hide the attendee name fields at checkout using custom CSS. You may add custom CSS by navigating to the “Events -> Settings” sub-menu select the “Custom CSS” tab.

still no news about the feature to re-order fields ?
Thanks for reaching out to us.
To address your concern, when adding checkout fields, you have the flexibility to create and arrange the fields as per your preference. We recommend creating the fields first that you require the least at the bottom, followed by the fields you need above them, and continuing this process until all necessary fields are added. This way, the most important fields can be positioned appropriately towards the top for better visibility and usability.
Our team has taken note of your request to reorder checkout fields and we would like to share that we will be incorporating the requested feature soon with our upcoming releases.
If you have any further questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us.
It is not possible to influence the arrangement of the fields. This is extremely inappropriate! The least important fields are at the top, while the name, for example, is at the bottom. The width or number of fields in a row that cannot be influenced is the lesser evil. In any case, the result looks very unprofessional! Ich hoffe, dass ich vielleicht etwas übersehen habe …
Hello,
Thank you for reaching out!
We would like to inform you that the sequence of checkout fields displayed under the “Event Settings” meta-box on the “Edit Event” page corresponds directly to their creation order under the “Checkout Fields” tab in the “Events -> Settings” sub-menu.
That being said, we would like to share that we have taken note of the requested feature to order the checkout fields and we will conduct a detailed assessment of your request for a possible inclusion in the system. We will mention the feature in the change log on our plugin page at WordPress.Org, once it’s available.
If you have any further questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
Always happy to help!
To Reorder the fields.
go into the database table “xx_eventprime_checkout_fields” and order by id High to Low.
This is the order of display on your website. change the ID number to gain the order you want. You will have to re assign any field that you modify. Hope that helps.
Thanks for update.
We are pleased to inform you that we have this feature in our pipeline and plan to add it in our upcoming releases. This will allow you to easily reorder fields directly from the backend without the need to modify the database.
