Add TicketWave to Your WordPress Site

Step 1: Add this code to your theme's functions.php file

In your WordPress admin, go to Appearance → Theme File Editor, select functions.php from the right sidebar, and add this code at the bottom of the file:

<?php
/**
 * TicketWave Embed Shortcode
 * Add this to your theme's functions.php or create a custom plugin.
 *
 * Usage: [ticketwave client="my-venue" event="summer-party-2026"]
 * Optional: [ticketwave client="my-venue" event="summer-party-2026" theme="dark" accent="#FF6B4A"]
 */
function ticketwave_shortcode( $atts ) {
    $atts = shortcode_atts( array(
        'client'  => '',
        'event'   => '',
        'theme'   => 'light',
        'accent'  => '',
        'button'  => 'Buy Tickets',
        'locale'  => 'en',
    ), $atts, 'ticketwave' );

    if ( empty( $atts['client'] ) || empty( $atts['event'] ) ) {
        return '<!-- TicketWave: client and event attributes are required -->';
    }

    $accent_attr = ! empty( $atts['accent'] )
        ? ' data-accent-color="' . esc_attr( $atts['accent'] ) . '"'
        : '';

    return '<div id="ticketwave-widget"'
        . ' data-client="' . esc_attr( $atts['client'] ) . '"'
        . ' data-event="' . esc_attr( $atts['event'] ) . '"'
        . ' data-api-url="https://www.ticketwavehq.com/api"'
        . ' data-theme="' . esc_attr( $atts['theme'] ) . '"'
        . ' data-button-text="' . esc_attr( $atts['button'] ) . '"'
        . ' data-locale="' . esc_attr( $atts['locale'] ) . '"'
        . $accent_attr
        . ' style="max-width:480px;margin:0 auto;">'
        . '</div>'
        . '<script src="https://www.ticketwavehq.com/widget/ticketwave.js" async></script>';
}
add_shortcode( 'ticketwave', 'ticketwave_shortcode' );

Step 2: Use the shortcode on any page or post

Basic usage — just provide your venue and event slugs:

[ticketwave client="my-venue" event="summer-party-2026"]

With customisation options:

[ticketwave client="my-venue" event="summer-party-2026" theme="dark" accent="#FF6B4A" button="Book Now"]
