PLease see previous post re this
https://eventespresso.com/topic/event-closes-but-shows-as-sold-out/
I have an upcoming events page with different category events listed and
when i added
[ESPRESSO_EVENTS_TABLE_TEMPLATE sold_out_button_text=’Event closed’]
it actually displayed events with no category (these are not for public viewing) – how to resolve this please?
thanks

Hi Sue,

May I ask what you mean by this:

it actually displayed events with no category (these are not for public viewing)

The shortcode you’ve added above doesn’t have any categories set so it will display all events. If you want events from a specific category you would need something like:

[ESPRESSO_EVENTS_TABLE_TEMPLATE category_slug=your-event-category-slug sold_out_button_text=’Event closed’]

Hi Tony
my upcoming events page has this currently

Classes

Please note the order to enter classes in is:- Beginners/Intermediates/Intro To Odour/Odour 2/Odour 3

[ESPRESSO_EVENTS_TABLE_TEMPLATE category_slug=classes]

Drop In Classes

The following drop in classes are being offered at  Mona Vale – please email Tara if your interested in attending any of these classes – $35 per dog per class

Nov classes coming soon

Specialised Workshops

[ESPRESSO_EVENTS_TABLE_TEMPLATE category_slug=snc]

NW1 Trial Prep Classes

[ESPRESSO_EVENTS_TABLE_TEMPLATE  category_slug=1temp]

NW2 Trial Prep Classes

[ESPRESSO_EVENTS_TABLE_TEMPLATE  category_slug=n2temp]

Scent Safari’s

[ESPRESSO_EVENTS_TABLE_TEMPLATE  category_slug=scent-safari]

 

NW2 Trial

[ESPRESSO_EVENTS_TABLE_TEMPLATE category_slug=nw2t]

and when i add[ESPRESSO_EVENTS_TABLE_TEMPLATE sold_out_button_text=’Event closed’] under each section then it does work and shows some events as closed – but it also adds events that are not public and have no slug attached

does that make sense?
thanks
Sue

Hi Sue,

Here’s how to fix this:

1) You remove every occurrence of this from the page:
[ESPRESSO_EVENTS_TABLE_TEMPLATE sold_out_button_text='Event closed']
2) Then you make the following edits:
[ESPRESSO_EVENTS_TABLE_TEMPLATE category_slug=classes]
change to:
[ESPRESSO_EVENTS_TABLE_TEMPLATE category_slug=classes sold_out_button_text = 'Event closed']

[ESPRESSO_EVENTS_TABLE_TEMPLATE category_slug=snc]
change to:
[ESPRESSO_EVENTS_TABLE_TEMPLATE category_slug=snc sold_out_button_text = 'Event closed']

and so on. After you finish making the edits you’ll click on the Update button.
