I’m trying to programmatically change a “Buy Tickets” button to “Sold Out”. I don’t want to use the Span that get’s outputted from espresso_event_status() function. Is there a similar function or value I can use in PHP to check against whether the event is Sold Out, Inactive or Expired?

Hi James,
If this is something you’re adding to an event post, or a loop of event posts, the following will return the event status with no span tags:
function espresso_clean_event_status() {
global $post;
$EVT_ID = $post->ID;
$event = EEH_Event_View::get_event( $EVT_ID );
$status = $event instanceof EE_Event ? $event->pretty_active_status( FALSE ) : 'inactive';
$status_sans_tags = wp_strip_all_tags($status);
return $status_sans_tags;
}

Thank you, Sir. That worked perfectly.
Along the same question. Is there a way to get just the ticket amount and not the name of the ticket or the HTML tags? I need to display the ticket price like “$45”. Thanks!

Once you have the EE_Event object, you’ll need to grab the tickets associated with it. Then on each EE_Ticket, you would need to grab it’s base price or all it’s prices. Once you have the EE_Price, you could get the pretty price or the price without the currency symbol.

Sounds good! Can you give me an example of how I would use?

Hi James,
The example I showed you earlier should be sufficient. If it’s not, can you work with a developer on your team on this?
