Filter Ticket Types based on the event

Solutions · 2 min read · Updated May 21, 2026

you run many events with reused ticket-type names (“Regular”, “VIP”, “Early Bird” — same names per event). In Tickera → Ticket Types, you see twenty rows all called “Regular” with no easy way to tell which event each belongs to. Editing the right one becomes a slog of clicking each to check.

The add-on: an event filter for ticket types

This small admin add-on adds a dropdown to the Ticket Types admin list — pick an event, and the list filters to show only ticket types belonging to that event.

  1. Download: filter-ticket-types-by-event.zip
  2. WordPress admin → Plugins → Add New → Upload Plugin, install, activate.
  3. Open Tickera → Ticket Types. New dropdown appears above the list.
  4. Pick an event, click Filter, list narrows to just that event’s tickets.

No settings page — the filter just exists.

Where this saves you time

  • Last-minute pricing changes. “Bump VIP price for next week’s event by $10” — find it in 5 seconds instead of clicking through twenty Regular/VIP rows.
  • Inventory adjustments. Set sale-window end dates for “this event’s tickets only” without affecting other events.
  • Sale-window batch updates. All Early Birds for one event need to expire tonight at midnight — filter, select all, bulk edit.
  • Pre-event reviews. Before publishing, audit the full ticket structure for one event by filtering to just that event.

Standalone only — not Bridge mode

The add-on hooks the standalone Tickera Ticket Types admin screen. In Bridge for WooCommerce mode, your tickets are WooCommerce products and live in Products → All Products instead — WooCommerce has its own filtering (by category, by stock status), which serves the same purpose with WooCommerce’s native tools.

Naming hygiene as an alternative

Even without this add-on, you can reduce confusion by including the event in the ticket-type name itself — “Spring Concert 2026 — Regular” instead of just “Regular”. Verbose, but searchable. The filter add-on lets you keep clean short names while still finding the right ticket fast.
