How do I display ticket level and quantity in event ticket receipt email?

Official response from completed

Many customers have asked us how to display the ticket level and/or ticket quantity in an autoresponse email when an event attendee purchases a ticket via an event page on NationBuilder.

You can accomplish this by adding the following code to the autoresponse email of the donation page you're using for ticketing:

{% for item in donation.order.items %}
{{ item.quantity }} {{ item.name }} @ {{ item.amount }}
{% endfor %}



If you are using a 3rd-party payment processor, you can direct people to an invoice type page to complete their purchase instead. 

If you create an invoice page (via Website > "+ New Page"), that page will then show up in the dropdown menu in the donation settings on your donate page where it asks you where to send ticket buyers to complete their purchase.  When choosing an invoice page for this setting, ticket buyers will choose their ticket levels and quantities on the event page like normal, and when they click "Continue", an invoice will be generated for them, they will be sent to the invoice page where they can see that invoice (and enter their credit card details to complete the transaction), and an email autoresponse, called "Invoice", will be sent to them.

Once they complete the invoice by entering their payment information, one of two other email autoresponses will be sent to them -- either a payment success email or a payment failure email. 

If you edit those email autoresponses, you can make them look exactly like a donation page autoresponse. In fact, I've gone into the donation page autoresponse, clicked "HTML Source" and copied the HTML content directly over the the "HTML Source" editor of the invoice autoresponse.  From there, you can make adjustments to the autoresponse so that it includes the following liquid:
