Looks like you’re using an older version of Event Espresso. You’ll need to update to a more current version (we recommend the current version) for the code snippet to have an effect.

No need for tricks, this is the solution that will work:

1) You update to Event Espresso 4.9.23.p
2) You add this code to your website:
https://gist.github.com/joshfeck/4bfdcaad62671a65583bac52df8e32eb
You can add the above to a functions plugin or into your WordPress theme’s functions.php file.

If you have problems with 4.9.23.p please let us know what they are and we can help with that.
