pretix-event-css-js

Inject custom CSS and JavaScript into the presale pages of individual events in pretix. Useful for branding tweaks, custom layouts, tracking snippets, or any per-event frontend customization that doesn't warrant a full theme.

Key capabilities:

• Per-event custom CSS and JavaScript
• Code editor in the event settings panel
• Content-hash based cache busting (1-year cache with automatic invalidation on change)
• Clean removal of settings when the plugin is uninstalled

Settings — custom CSS & JS editor

How it works

1. You enter custom CSS and/or JavaScript in the event settings.
2. The plugin injects a <link> tag (CSS) into the page head and a <script> tag (JS) into the page footer of every presale page for that event.
3. The CSS and JS are served from dedicated endpoints with a content-hash query parameter for cache busting. Browsers cache them for up to 1 year — when you update the code, the hash changes and browsers fetch the new version automatically.

Installation

pip install pretix-event-css-js

Then restart the server. The plugin registers itself automatically via the pretix.plugin entry point — no manual INSTALLED_APPS edit needed.

Development installation

git clone https://github.com/nicoknoll/pretix-event-css-js.git
cd pretix-event-css-js
pip install -e .

Usage

1. Enable the plugin for your event under Settings → Plugins.
2. Go to Settings → Event-CSS & JS in the event control panel.
3. Enter your custom CSS and/or JavaScript and save.

Your code will be loaded on every presale page of that event.

Heads up: Faulty JavaScript can break the checkout flow for your customers. Test thoroughly before going live.
