Change Event Status to Pending after Community User Edit

[Kevin]

We’ve discovered that after a user submits an event for the first time and it’s approved – the user can then go back and edit the event, LIVE on the site…. We really think the event should go back into PENDING after any community edits. This way we don’t have content we wouldn’t approve on the site.

Any way to do this?

Hi Kevin,

Welcome to our support forums, and thanks for reaching out to us!

Hopefully there’s a simple way of achieving this. Just add the following snippet to your theme’s function.php file (located at wp-content/themes/your_theme/):


/* Set status to pending after community event edit */
add_action( 'tribe_community_event_updated', function ( $event_id ) {
$args['ID'] = $event_id;
$args['post_type'] = Tribe__Events__Main::POSTTYPE;
$args['post_status'] = 'pending';

wp_update_post( $args );
} );


Please give this a try and let me know if it works,
Best,
Nico
