It can be used to move active registrations from another ticketing platform, generate FooEvents tickets for existing WooCommerce orders or import tickets that were issued through a legacy or offline registration process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The source data must first be exported and prepared as a CSV file containing one row for every ticket. During the import, each CSV column is mapped to a FooEvents ticket field and every valid row is used to create a new ticket for an existing FooEvents event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This guide explains how to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Plan a ticket migration and understand what the importer creates<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Prepare the required and optional CSV fields<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Move ticket data from Event Tickets, Eventbrite or WooCommerce Box Office<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Prepare an export from another ticketing or registration system<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Map and import tickets in controlled batches<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Verify ticket data, capacity, delivery and check-ins after the migration<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"notice wp-block-paragraph\">Before importing tickets, <a href=\"https:\/\/help.fooevents.com\/es\/documentos\/temas-2\/como-empezar\/#install-the-fooevents-plugins\">install the required FooEvents plugins<\/a> y <a href=\"https:\/\/help.fooevents.com\/es\/documentos\/temas-2\/como-empezar\/#creating-an-event\">create and configure the destination event<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"C\u00f3mo importar entradas de eventos con FooEvents\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/wxIgrY4Ewrw?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Plan your ticket import<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How the importer works<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Create and configure the destination event products in FooEvents.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Export attendee-level ticket information from the existing system and prepare it as a CSV file.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Upload the CSV file under <strong>FooEvents &gt; Import Tickets<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Map the CSV columns to the corresponding FooEvents ticket fields.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Review the validation screen and correct any errors in the CSV.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Confirm the import and repeat the process for any remaining batches.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Verify the imported tickets before issuing them to attendees or using them for check-ins.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Each CSV row creates one FooEvents ticket. If one purchaser registered four attendees in a single order, the file must contain four rows\u2014one for each attendee and ticket.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What the importer creates<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">FooEvents creates a new ticket record for every imported row. Each ticket receives a new FooEvents ticket ID, ticket number, security hash and barcode or QR code. The ticket is linked to the destination FooEvents event specified in the CSV and begins with a <strong>No registrado<\/strong> status.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Optional attendee details, variations, booking selections, custom attendee fields and references to existing WooCommerce orders can also be added when the correct destination IDs are supplied.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is not migrated automatically<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The ticket importer creates FooEvents ticket and attendee records. It does not reproduce the complete commercial history or internal data model of the previous platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>WooCommerce orders, customers, payments, taxes and refunds are not created.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Historical revenue is not added to WooCommerce sales reports.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Existing check-in statuses and check-in history are not transferred.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Original ticket IDs, security codes and barcodes do not become FooEvents ticket identifiers.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>WooCommerce product stock and FooEvents Bookings availability are not reduced automatically.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Imported tickets are not automatically emailed to attendees.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The importer does not check whether a source ticket has already been imported.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Reserved seating assignments are not available as a standard CSV mapping.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"notice wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>New tickets and barcodes:<\/strong> Tickets imported from another platform receive new FooEvents barcodes and QR codes. If the tickets will be used for admission, issue the new FooEvents tickets and tell attendees that their old tickets will no longer be accepted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Prepare the destination events first<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Every imported ticket must be linked to an existing FooEvents event product. Before preparing the CSV:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Create the required FooEvents event products.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Configure event dates, venue details, ticket themes and ticket email settings.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Create any WooCommerce variations used for General Admission, VIP, package or access options.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Create the required booking dates and slots when using FooEvents Bookings.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Create the destination FooEvents Custom Attendee Fields before importing responses.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Record the destination Event, Variation, Booking Date and Booking Slot IDs.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Do not use IDs from the previous ticketing system in FooEvents ID fields. Source IDs can be retained separately as Meta fields for reference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"notice wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Back up and test:<\/strong> Create a complete backup of the website files and database, then test the migration on a staging site before importing tickets into the live site. The importer does not provide an automatic rollback or duplicate-removal process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Prepare your CSV file<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Download the example file<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Export the attendee information from the current system and save it as a standard comma-separated CSV file. The first row should contain the column headings and every following row should represent one ticket.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/help.fooevents.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/ticket-import-example.zip\">Descargar el archivo de plantilla CSV (ticket-import-example.csv)<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The example includes a custom attendee field and FooEvents Bookings fields.

A source ticket type such as VIP does not automatically identify the correct WooCommerce variation; add the corresponding destination Variation ID to every applicable row.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Campos personalizados para los asistentes<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Al importar <a href=\"https:\/\/help.fooevents.com\/es\/documentos\/temas-2\/eventos-2\/campos-de-participante-personalizados\/\">FooEvents Campos de asistente personalizados<\/a>, the CSV column heading must match the internal ID of the destination attendee field, not its label.

A date, time or occurrence ID from the previous system cannot be imported directly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To identify the correct IDs, create or open an existing ticket for the required destination booking and check the <strong>WooCommerceEventsBookingDateID<\/strong> y <strong>WooCommerceEventsBookingSlotID<\/strong> values under <strong>Campos personalizados<\/strong>. Both IDs must be included for each bookable ticket.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"896\" height=\"168\" src=\"https:\/\/help.fooevents.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/booking-id.png\" alt=\"FooEvents Booking Date and Slot IDs stored on a ticket\" class=\"wp-image-133752\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/help.fooevents.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/booking-id.png 896w, https:\/\/help.fooevents.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/booking-id-300x56.png 300w, https:\/\/help.fooevents.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/booking-id-768x144.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 896px) 100vw, 896px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A complete list of booking IDs is also stored on the bookable event in the <strong>fooevents_bookings_options_serialized<\/strong> custom field. Manually interpreting serialized data can be error-prone, so test every date and slot mapping before importing the complete file.

This is useful when standard WooCommerce products or another WooCommerce ticket extension were previously used on the same site and the original orders are being retained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Do not map an Eventbrite order number, an Event Tickets Tickets Commerce order number or an ID from another WordPress installation to this field. Preserve it as <strong>Source Order ID<\/strong> metadata instead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Create a destination mapping table<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before editing a large export, create a lookup table that translates each source event, ticket type or occurrence into its FooEvents destination. For example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>Source event<\/th><th>Source ticket type<\/th><th>ID del evento<\/th><th>Variaci\u00f3n ID<\/th><th>Booking Date ID<\/th><th>Booking Slot ID<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Annual Conference<\/td><td>General Admission<\/td><td>1250<\/td><td>1261<\/td><td><\/td><td><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Annual Conference<\/td><td>VIP<\/td><td>1250<\/td><td>1262<\/td><td><\/td><td><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Training Series<\/td><td>5 September, Morning<\/td><td>1400<\/td><td><\/td><td>date_5_sep<\/td><td>morning_slot<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Use the actual IDs from your site. The example IDs above are illustrative and will not work on another installation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Clean and protect the source data<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Include only valid tickets that should remain active after the migration.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Remove refunded, canceled, deleted, unpaid or non-attending records unless there is a specific reason to retain them.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Remove blank rows, summary rows and order totals.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Split combined attendee names into separate first- and last-name columns.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Confirm that every row contains a valid email address.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Remove payment details, old ticket-edit links, access tokens, security codes and personal information that FooEvents does not need.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Keep the original export and working migration files in a secure location with access limited to authorized staff.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Useful audit columns can be retained as Meta fields, for example <strong>Source System<\/strong>, <strong>Source Ticket ID<\/strong>, <strong>Source Order ID<\/strong>, <strong>Source Ticket Type<\/strong> y <strong>Migration Batch<\/strong>. Review every column during mapping because columns that are not mapped to a standard FooEvents field can default to Meta field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Move tickets from another platform<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Exports differ between platforms and configurations. Use the following methods as a starting point, then review the downloaded CSV before preparing it for FooEvents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Event Tickets and The Events Calendar<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The ticketing solution commonly used with The Events Calendar is called <strong>Event Tickets<\/strong> o <strong>Event Tickets Plus<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Export the attendees<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>In the WordPress admin area, open the event&#8217;s <strong>Asistentes<\/strong> pantalla.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Utilice <strong>Opciones de pantalla<\/strong> to include the ticket and attendee columns required for the migration.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Seleccione <strong>Exportar<\/strong> to download the attendee CSV.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Repeat the export for each event that will be migrated.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Exporting one event at a time is recommended because every file can be assigned to a specific destination FooEvents Event ID.

When the CSV contains more tickets than the configured batch size, complete the current batch and repeat the import process until every batch has been processed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The batch size can be adjusted under <strong>FooEvents &gt; Settings &gt; General &gt; Import batch size<\/strong>. Use a value appropriate for the website&#8217;s hosting resources. A smaller batch is safer when the file includes many custom fields or the server has limited memory and execution time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"notice wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Do not rename or modify a multi-batch CSV while it is being processed.<\/strong> Upload the same unchanged file for every batch.

Use a controlled migration process:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Record the source ticket IDs included in every migration batch.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pause ticket sales in the old system or record the exact export cutoff time.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Import the prepared ticket file once.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Export only registrations created or changed after the cutoff.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Remove any source ticket IDs already imported before processing the final file.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Open sales through FooEvents only after the imported totals and remaining capacity have been verified.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Verify and complete the migration<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Verify the imported tickets<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After each test or production batch, go to <strong>FooEvents &gt; Tickets<\/strong> and review the imported records.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"821\" height=\"468\" src=\"https:\/\/help.fooevents.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Screenshot-2023-01-16-at-13.25.09.png\" alt=\"Imported tickets displayed under FooEvents Tickets\" class=\"wp-image-133757\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/help.fooevents.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Screenshot-2023-01-16-at-13.25.09.png 821w, https:\/\/help.fooevents.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Screenshot-2023-01-16-at-13.25.09-300x171.png 300w, https:\/\/help.fooevents.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Screenshot-2023-01-16-at-13.25.09-768x438.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 821px) 100vw, 821px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Compare the number of valid source tickets with the number of imported FooEvents tickets.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Compare totals by event, source ticket type, destination variation, booking date and slot.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Open representative tickets and inspect the attendee, variation, booking and custom field data.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Confirm that imported Order IDs open the intended WooCommerce orders.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Utilice la <a href=\"https:\/\/help.fooevents.com\/es\/documentos\/temas-2\/asistentes\/exportar-informacion-sobre-los-asistentes\/\">FooEvents attendee export<\/a> to compare the resulting data with the cleaned migration file.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Update capacity and availability<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Imported tickets do not automatically reduce WooCommerce product stock or FooEvents Bookings availability. Before reopening sales, calculate the remaining capacity for every event, variation, booking date and time slot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, if an event has a capacity of 500 and 320 valid tickets were migrated, configure the destination sales capacity so that no more than the remaining 180 places can be sold. Account for any additional tickets that were already created directly in FooEvents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"notice wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Bookable events:<\/strong> Check every date and slot separately. Importing Booking Date and Slot IDs associates the ticket with that occurrence, but the importer does not automatically subtract the ticket from the occurrence&#8217;s available booking stock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Test ticket delivery and check-ins<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Open an imported ticket and confirm that the HTML ticket displays correctly.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Generate and review a PDF ticket if FooEvents PDF Tickets is enabled.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Resend one test ticket and confirm that it reaches the intended attendee.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Load the destination event in the FooEvents Check-ins app.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Scan the new barcode or QR code and verify that the correct attendee and event details appear.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Test variations, booking filters and multi-day check-ins where applicable.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The importer does not send ticket emails automatically. Once the migration has been verified, tickets can be selected under <strong>FooEvents &gt; Tickets<\/strong> and resent in bulk. Review the event&#8217;s ticket theme, recipient and email settings first.
