Live in Four Simple Steps
From install to earning — it takes less than a minute.
Install & Activate
Upload the plugin to WordPress and activate it. That's the only setup you'll ever need.
Artist Detection
The widget scans your page URLs and matches them against the active performer list.
Auto-Injection
When a match is found, the ticket widget is automatically inserted into your content.
Readers Discover Tickets
Visitors click through to face value listings on CashorTrade.org — tracked to your account.
Smart Rules, Zero Manual Work
The widget knows exactly when and where to appear in your content.
When the Widget Appears
Two conditions must be met for auto-placement:
- The page URL contains a recognized artist name
- That artist is included in the Active Performer List
Fallback Behavior
When no performer match is found in the URL, the plugin doesn't leave your readers empty-handed.
- A static CashorTrade tickets link appears instead
- Visitors can still discover the marketplace
- Your affiliate tracking still applies
Fine-Tune Your Widget Placement
Customize exactly where and how the ticket widget appears on your pages.
Show widget inline in post
Insert the ticket widget at the paragraph position specified below. Uncheck to disable inline placement — the end-of-post option will still apply if enabled.
Insert after paragraph #
The widget will appear after this paragraph number in the post content. Adjust to match your typical article length and layout.
Also show at end of post
When enabled, the widget appears both at the inline paragraph position above (if enabled) and again at the very end of the post for maximum visibility.
Use Shortcodes for Full Control
Place the widget anywhere on any page — shortcodes override automatic placement.
[tour_dates performer="billy-strings"]
[tour_dates performer="phish"]
[tour_dates performer="goose"]How Shortcodes Work
Drop a shortcode into any WordPress post or page to place the ticket widget exactly where you want it.
- Shortcodes override automatic placement on that page
- Use the artist slug as the performer value
- The artist must be in the Active Performer list
- Works in posts, pages, and custom post types
Not Tied to a Specific Artist?
Display a general CashorTrade widget that links visitors directly to the marketplace homepage. Perfect for sidebar placements, about pages, or any non-artist content.
What Your Visitors See
A clean, non-intrusive widget that feels native to your content.
Compact Bar Appears
A sleek bar shows the artist name and a "Tour Dates" button within your article.
Shows Expand
Clicking the bar reveals a list of upcoming tour dates with full event details.
Date, Venue & City
Each show displays the date, venue name, and city — everything a fan needs at a glance.
Direct to Tickets
Clicking a show takes the reader straight to face value listings on CashorTrade.org.
How Artist Detection Works
The plugin matches URL slugs against the active performer list. Here's how it decides.
Partial match doesn't count
"billy-jones-strings" is not in the performer list. The URL contains extra words that break the match — only exact artist slugs are recognized.
Exact slug match detected
"billy-strings" is an exact match in the Active Performer list. The widget auto-injects and displays tour dates with face value ticket links.
Tour dates hosted on CashorTrade
Tour dates are managed by us at CashorTrade. The performer list is currently static within the widget and soon to be updated via the API.
Active Performers
The widget currently supports these artists. This list is managed centrally and updated regularly.
This is a sample display. The full active list is managed by CashorTrade and may include additional artists.
