I was attempting to use EE_Event->is_active() or EE_Event->status but the first returns false and the second returns “not active” even when the event status is upcoming.

EE4 latest, WP latest.

In addition, an event has the same status ‘upcoming’ whether tickets are on sale or not so perhaps status is not what I need. How can I determine if tickets are on sale? In this case if the tickets are not on sale then I don’t want a link to the event’s page but rather a coming soon notice on the events index/listing.

Hi Jamie,

Can you post the code that you’re trying in a gist so we have a better idea of what to look for? Thanks.

You would need to drill down from the event to the datetimes to the tickets:

$events = get_posts(array("post_type"=>'espresso_events'));
							//var_dump($events);
							foreach ($events as $event) {
								if ( !empty( $event->EE_Event ) ) {
									$datetimes = $event->EE_Event->datetimes_ordered();
									//var_dump($datetimes);
									foreach($datetimes as $datetime) {
										$tickets = $datetime->tickets();
										foreach($tickets as $ticket) {
											$is_on_sale = $ticket->is_on_sale();
											var_dump($is_on_sale);
										}
									}
								}
							}

Perfect thanks Sidney. (Your link to the code docs in my other post fully answers this too.)
