EE4 v4.9.29.p / wp v4.7.4
Hi. I have attempted to use the filter
FHEE__EE_Ticket_Selector__display_ticket_selector_submit__sold_out_msg
to update the ticket selector message. The default is :
<p class=”no-ticket-selector-msg clear-float”>”Event Name” is currently sold out.<br>Please check back again later, as spots may become available.</p>
I found the filter name inside DisplayTicketSelector.php file, line 515.
$html .= apply_filters(
'FHEE__EE_Ticket_Selector__display_ticket_selector_submit__sold_out_msg',
sprintf(
__(
'%1$s"%2$s" is currently sold out.%4$sPlease check back again later, as spots may become available.%3$s',
'event_espresso'
),
'<p class="no-ticket-selector-msg clear-float">',
$this->event->name(),
'</p>',
'<br />'
),
$this->event
);
… and my attempt at creating a filter is as follows:
function ee4_change_sold_out_msg($string){
$string = $this->event->name() . ' is currently sold out. Please <a href="mailto:info@site.com" target="_blank">email us</a> to join a cancellation list.';
return $string;
}
add_filter( 'FHEE__EE_Ticket_Selector__display_ticket_selector_submit__sold_out_msg', 'ee4_change_sold_out_msg', 55 );
Could you please give me an idea of what needs to happen? Maybe i need to pass a global $event variable through and use it somehow?
Thank you!
Matt

Hi Matt,
Actually you’ll need to pass in the accepted arguments in your function and specify the number of accepted args. Here’s an example from the codex:
https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/add_filter/#comment-407
So your code should end up something like this:
function ee4_change_sold_out_msg( $string, $this->event ){
$string = $this->event->name() . ' is currently sold out. Please <a href="mailto:info@site.com" target="_blank">email us</a> to join a cancellation list.';
return $string;
}
add_filter(
'FHEE__EE_Ticket_Selector__display_ticket_selector_submit__sold_out_msg',
'ee4_change_sold_out_msg',
11,
2
);

Hi Josh.
Thanks for your reply!
Okay, now this works:
if( ! function_exists( 'ee4_change_sold_out_msg' ) ) {
function ee4_change_sold_out_msg($string){
$string = 'This is currently sold out. Please <a href="mailto:info@site.com" target="_blank">email us</a> to join a cancellation list.';
return $string;
}
}
add_filter( 'FHEE__EE_Ticket_Selector__display_ticket_selector_submit__sold_out_msg', 'ee4_change_sold_out_msg', 12, 1 );
But I cannot just reference $this inside the function or as a parameter. I assume it is because the function doesnt know what object $this is referring to. Do you have any examples of other ee4 filter functions using the current event in the loop and accessing things like permalink and event name, etc. I am using this on the single page and assume it is within the loop.
Many thanks!
Matt

Finally figured it out!
Here is my solution:
if( ! function_exists( 'ee4_change_sold_out_msg' ) ) {
function ee4_change_sold_out_msg($string, $event){
$event_name = $event->get('EVT_name');
$string = $event_name . ' is currently sold out. Please <a href="mailto:info@site.com" target="_blank">email us</a> to join a cancellation list.';
return $string;
}
}
add_filter( 'FHEE__EE_Ticket_Selector__display_ticket_selector_submit__sold_out_msg', 'ee4_change_sold_out_msg', 12, 2 );
I completley guessed on passing in the $event object. Then I printr($event) and saw EVT_name inside the object, and found the get method to obtain the name. Not very obvious right way, but I finally got it.
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction Josh. You can mark this closed.

Hey Matt,
You’re correct about not being able to reference this, but you can access the event object. Corrected code follows:
function ee4_change_sold_out_msg( $string, $event_object ){
$string = $event_object->name() . ' is currently sold out. Please <a href="mailto:info@site.com" target="_blank">email us</a> to join a cancellation list.';
return $string;
}
add_filter(
'FHEE__EE_Ticket_Selector__display_ticket_selector_submit__sold_out_msg',
'ee4_change_sold_out_msg',
11,
2
);
Do you have any examples of other ee4 filter functions using the current event in the loop and accessing things like permalink and event name, etc. I am using this on the single page and assume it is within the loop.
The best place to look is within the core plugin, in the public folder you’ll see a bunch of templates with event in their name.
