Hi there,

When an event is fully booked, it changes it’s post_status to sold_out automatically. But my theme doesn’t support anything but published post. And I will not be able to change the parameter. So I found a way to stop changing it post_status sold_out by editing 1 character in event-espresso-core-reg/core/db_classes/EE_Event.class.php. On line 896 I just changed < 1 (smaller than) to <1 (bigger than). But this is not ideal, because it’s I changed it in the source file. So my question is, can I make this change placing this function in my functions.php? Or is there another way to stop changing it to sold_out when sold out?

Hi there,

There is a hook right at the end of that method:

AHEE__EE_Event__perform_sold_out_status_check__end

You can use that to change the event status to whatever you need to as we do not support modifying core files.

However, I don’t recommend you do it this way. Modifying how Event Espresso handles events simply because your theme doesn’t support other post statuses seems like the wrong approach to me.

Why not modify the theme to pull in to use other post status values?
