How to install the plugin

  1. In your WordPress admin, go to Plugins → Add New.
  2. Search for Eventbrite checkout, find WP Eventbrite Embedded Checkout and click Install Now, then Activate.
  3. The Get started page opens under the new Eventbrite menu.

You can also download it from WordPress.org and upload it under Plugins → Add New → Upload Plugin.

How to add an event

  1. Open your event on Eventbrite and copy its link from the address bar, for example https://www.eventbrite.com/e/your-event-tickets-123456789012. The number at the end is the event ID; you can use either.
  2. On Eventbrite → Get started, paste the link. It saves itself, and every new block and widget starts with this event.
  3. Click Create a page with the block (or with the widget if you use Elementor), or add the checkout to any page yourself:
    • Block editor: add the Eventbrite Checkout block (type “eventbrite” in the block search) and paste the event’s link. The real checkout appears in the editor.
    • Elementor: add the Eventbrite Checkout widget and paste the link.
    • Classic editor, Divi, Bricks and other builders: use the shortcode, for example [wp-eventbrite-checkout event="123456789012"]. Eventbrite → Shortcode builds it for you.
  4. Pick how to show it: On the page, or a Button that opens a popup.

To sell tickets for another event, add another block, widget or shortcode with that event’s link. There is no limit.

Options

  • Popup on phones: on small screens, the checkout on the page becomes a button, and the checkout opens full screen, as Eventbrite recommends.
  • Height: for the checkout on the page, 425 px or more.
  • Button: text, style (match your theme, or simple) and colours.
  • Checkout colour: your brand colour on Eventbrite’s buttons and links.
  • Promo code: applied when the checkout opens. Create the code in Eventbrite first.
  • Eventbrite → Advanced: send an eventbrite_purchase event to Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager and Meta Pixel, and send buyers to your own thank-you page.

Set defaults for every checkout under Eventbrite → Settings.

Using the Pro plugin?

Your Pro shortcodes keep working, with the Pro plugin active and also without it. You don’t need to change anything.

Requirements

  • An SSL certificate (https): Eventbrite shows its checkout only on secure pages.
  • A published Eventbrite event.
  • WordPress 6.6 or higher, tested up to WordPress 7.1.
  • PHP 7.4 or higher.
