    Hi guys,

    in my child-theme I have added some functions in my events-manager/forms/bookingform/booking-fields.php file.
    Those functions add custom fields that the user is supposed to enter in addition to his booking.

    I would like to execute one function only when a certain category is set for the specific event.
    So I would like to know, how to get the current (opened) event-id and therefore the category-id.

    Any help is appreciated.

    Thank you!

    Hi,
    You can make a function that hooks only into the booking form. That will make it update-safe from both plugin and theme updates. 

    function em_show_form_fields_for_certain_category_only() {
	global $EM_Event;
	$array = array();
	$categories = $EM_Event->get_categories();
	foreach( $categories as $category ) {
		$array[] = (int) $category->id;
	}

	// Check if EM Category ID 3 is selected for this event.
	if( in_array( 3, $array ) ) {
		// Do stuff => Your custom form fields go here.
	}
	return;
}
add_action('em_booking_form_footer', 'em_show_form_fields_for_certain_category_only');
