Ticket name not found; can't publish events.

Which version of Events Manager and WordPress are you using?

Version 5.6.2, WP 4.4

sorry wasn’t able to replicate this; do you have a step by step guide on how to replicate this please?

I tried it on a different site and didn’t get the error. I’m just adding a new event, enabling booking and changing the price of the standard ticket.

I’d like to remove the plugin entirely from the site that’s giving me the issues, but even after I delete the plugin and remove the wp_em_ db tables, there is still leftover data from the work I did when it was installed. E.g., the locations are still appearing.

How can I completely remove everything from the plugin? Maybe that will help troubleshooting this.

Turns out I was running php 7 on my local MAMP server. I switched to 5.6 and the problem went away.

Same problem over here.
Switching back to PHP 5.6 “solved” it.
Very disappointed.

I had the same issue. Tracked the problem to classes/em-ticket.php and the validate function (row 234). Changing:

if ( $this->true_field == "") {
				$missing_fields[] = $field;
			}

to

if ( $true_field == "") {
				$missing_fields[] = $field;
			}

Solved the problem for me.

and now? Missing fields: ticket_booking_spaces …

cmq the row is 239

I had the same issue as the OP today.

Switching from PHP7 to PHP 5.6 (5.6.10) solved the problem.

I’m running MAMP, on OSX, as localhost.

Same problem ang same solution: switch back from php 7.0 to php 5.6.
Running:
WP 4.4.2
EM 5.6.2

jacob.svedlund’s suggestion seems not possible anymore: could not find the code in em-ticket.php. Perhaps updates since then has solved that issue?

I had the same issue –
EM 5.6.2
WP 4.4.2
PHP 7.0.3

When trying to save an event with tickets, I got error
Missing fields: ticket_name.
There was a problem saving the ticket.

Switching to PHP 5.6.18 fixed the issue. Thank you Ben for figuring that out. I was able to switch PHP versions on this host (Site Ground), but that option is not available on all hosts.

Update: This issue has now been addressed in the just released version of the plugin.
