How to relocate the invoice templates for Event Espresso 4 so they can be customized

This is a quick guide to show you how to relocate the invoice payment gateway templates so they can be customized.

This method is no longer recommended for customizing the invoice templates. With the current version of Event Espresso 4 you can manage the invoice template through the messages editor which can be found in Event Espresso --> Messages --> Invoice.

Step 1) Login to your WordPress root with your preferred SFTP or FTP client. Filezilla and Cyberduck are free options. On a Mac? Try Transmit

Step 2) Browse to this location:

wp-content/plugins/event-espresso-core-reg/modules/gateways/Invoice

Step 3) Download the folder above to your computer

Step 4) Browse to this location:

wp-content/uploads/espresso/templates

Step 5) Now create additional folders like so:

wp-content/uploads/espresso/templates/modules/gateways

In the step above, you should create a folder called modules. Then browse to that folder and create a folder called gateways.

Step 6) Upload the Invoice folder that you downloaded in Step 2 and then browse to this location:

/wp-content/uploads/espresso/templates/modules/gateways/Invoice/lib/templates

Step 7) You can then make changes to the various template files and save changes

You can then try a test registration and go to your invoice to see your edits in action.

Reminder: this tutorial will no longer be valid with the next major release of Event Espresso 4 (4.6).
