Registr. for Classes~ How to show future classes also sold out on Calendar

My client has a dance studio and I’ve used Recurring Events to set up registration for her classes. She has a limit of 10 students per class. I noticed that one of her classes (Ballet/Tap 5-7 yrs) has reached the 10-student limit and when a person clicks to register thru the registration page, they get the message that the class has sold out. On the calendar, however, if a person hovers over the 2nd date the class is offered, they’re prompted to click to register. What have I done wrong? I hope this makes sense. Thanks!

Hi Lisa,

The (Ballet/Tap 5-7 yrs) that are actually sold out are showing as sold out. However, the ones that are not sold out aren’t showing sold out.

Am I missing something?

Hi Jonathan. I didn’t explain thoroughly. People sign up for and pay for the entire 10-week class. So in other words, what I’d like to happen is after 10 people (the limit) have signed up for a class, all instances of that class on the calendar would display “Sold Out”, not just the first instance on the Calendar. Thanks!

Hi,

Each of these additional events (2 through 10) would need to be changed to sold out by adjusting the attendee limit to 0 (top right of the event editor screen).

Hi Lorenzo. I’ve thought about different ways to solve the problem and what you suggested would work, but is there not a way to have it adjust automatically so I don’t need to “babysit” the site? Thank you so much.

BTW, what I mean by “babysit” is that my client has other classes that are filling up and it will be hard for me to check every day and adjust each class’ availability. Make sense?

The recurring events are technically individual events so it won’t update automatically. You might consider including a link to the main event (event 1 – week 1) in the event description area for the additional events (week 2 – week 10).

Is there a way to manipulate a template or perhaps the CSS so that when people hover over events in calendar view, the registration popup isn’t displayed?

Hi,

You can turn off the calendar tooltips by going to your WordPress dashboard and then Event Espresso > Calendar Settings and changing Show Tooltips to No.

Oh how simple is that? 1000 thank-you’s, Dean! I believe that will do the trick!
