Function that checks for available tickets?

[goodwork]

Hey guys! Is there a function that checks for available tickets and returns false if there are none (say registration has closed)? Something like what checks if the ticket form should be written or not? I am trying to make a Registration is Closed button on my event page, but I can’t find a function to check.

Thanks!

Hi there, Matt! Thanks for getting in touch. 🙂

Great question. Yes, it sounds like you might be looking for the tribe_has_tickets() function. This checks and determines if the current event has tickets. You can also check out our full documentation for all the ticketing functions available. If you type “ticket” in the search, it will auto-suggest relevant classes and functions.

Does this help answer your question? Please let me know.

Cheers!

The problem with has_tickets was that it returned true even after the event. I ended up using $tickets = TribeEventsTickets::get_all_event_tickets($event_id); Then ran a for each on $tickets comparing the end date for each one with the current time (pulled from the tickets.php code) and that worked really well. Thanks for the help!

Awesome! I’m so glad that worked out and thanks for sharing your solution. That will definitely come in handy if someone else is in a similar situation.

I’m going to go ahead and close this thread, but please feel free to hit us up with a new thread if any other questions pop up. We’d be happy to help. 🙂

Cheers!
Geoff
