Overview #
The Eventbrite Import tool lets you bring your existing Eventbrite events into your WordPress site in a few clicks. You can import a single event using its Event ID, or import all events from a organizer using the Organizer ID.
1. Before you start #
You will need:
- An active Eventbrite account with at least one event.
- The Eventin plugin installed and activated on your WordPress site.
- Your Eventbrite Private API Key (we will get this in the next step).
2. Enable Migration tool from Extension page #
To enable the Migration Tool for Eventin, navigate to WordPress Dashboard → Eventin → Extensions. On the Extensions page, find the Migration Tool for Eventin and enable it by turning on the toggle switch located in the top-right corner of the extension card. Once the extension is enabled, the Activate button will appear at the bottom of the card. Click the Activate button, and the Migration Tool will be automatically downloaded and activated on your website, making it ready for use.

Step 3. Click the “Save Key” button.
Step 4. When the button label changes to “Connected”, your account is linked successfully.
5. Import your Event #
Step 1. In the “Import Configuration” section, choose how you want to import:
– Event ID -> imports one specific event.
– Organizer ID -> imports every event from that organizer.
Step 2. Enter the matching ID in the input field.
Tip: You can find the Event ID at the end of your Eventbrite event URL, for example: eventbrite.com/e/your-event-name-123456789 The number “123456789” is the Event ID.
Step 3. Click “Preview Events”.
Step 4. Wait a moment while Eventin fetches your events.
Step 5. The “Event Preview” section will show every event found. By default, all events are selected.
Step 6. Uncheck any events you do not want to import, or use “Select All” / “Deselect All”.
Step 7. Click the purple “Import X Events” button to start.
Thinks to know #
- Duplicates are detected automatically. Re-importing the same event will skip or update it, never create a copy
- The key is saved once. You do not need to paste it again the next time you visit this page
- If you change the “Import By” option, the preview list is cleared so you can start fresh.
- Imports run one event at a time, so a large organizer may take a short while to finish. Please keep the page open.
FAQs #
Q: Do I need coding skills to design a receipt in WPCafe?
A: No, you don’t need any coding knowledge. WPCafe uses the native WordPress block editor (Gutenberg). You can drag and drop custom WPCafe blocks, change colors, and edit text just like you would on a standard WordPress page or post.
Q: Does WPCafe offer premade receipt templates?
A: Yes. In the receipt editor, click the “Template” button on the top toolbar. A modal will appear showing several premade designs. Simply select one and click “Import” to load it into your editor.
Q: Where can I print receipts for individual orders?
A: WPCafe adds a “Print” button to both the WooCommerce order list page and the individual order details page. Business owners can click this button to instantly print a receipt for any specific order using the default layout.
