Charge Wording on "Event has reached maximum attendees" Page

I would like to change the wording on the page that appears when the Maximum Number of Attendees have registered. How do I change it from “Check Back . . .” to “Please email or call our office if you would like to be contacted if a slot becomes available.”
I would also like to REMOVE the entire line that states the “Current Number of Attendees”.
Thanks!

Hello,

The quickest method to change the messaging in Event Espresso is to use a gettext filter:

Alternatively, you could copy over your Event Espresso templates to the following location and make changes there:

wp-content/uploads/espresso

Thanks, Lorenzo. How do I remove the “Current Number of Attendees”?

Hi, that is from one of the template files.

Login to your site with an SFTP or FTP client such as FileZilla or Cyberduck. Then browse to this location:

wp-content/plugins/event-espresso/templates

Download a copy of the following files to your computer:

registration_page_display.php
registration_page.php

Then browse to this location using your SFTP or FTP client:

wp-content/uploads/espresso/templates

Then upload those two files that you just downloaded to the folder above.

Now we need to edit the registration_page.php file to remove the quantity for the attendee.

Open it and go to line 243 which has this:

<p class="num_attendees"><?php _e('Current Number of Attendees:', 'event_espresso'); ?> <?php echo $num_attendees ?></p>

Remove the entire line and save changes.
