Hi Geoff,

Thanks for the update.

If I work it out myself or find out any more information that may solve it, I’ll let you know.

Hi Geoff,

Thanks for the reply, much appreciated.

I put the code you provided in the tickets.php file but unfortunately it didn’t change the wording on the front end.

Cheers

Thanks Hunter for the reply but it is of little help.

In fact, for the time it took you to write your reply, you could have given me a line of code to put in my function.php file and it would have been done. So I will stick with hard coding it into the core file.

The reason I put in a ticket, was because all the other ticket messages can be change in the event calendar translation file, except for this particular message.

Close this post if you want Hunter because I have never got a resolution to any of my questions from you when you answer my posts, nothing personal just a fact!

Hi,

Just letting you know that I have changed the wording directly within the core file at /wp-content/plugins/event-tickets/src/Tribe/tickets.php until I can find a solution which won’t be overwritten when I update the plugin.

Hi Josh,

Worked a charm, thanks. I had spent about two hours trying to find that selector, you give me one line and it’s done! 🙂

Thanks for the quick reply and help, much appreciated.

Hi George,

I uninstalled the W3 Total Cache plugin and reinstalled a fresh copy and used the settings Synthesis provided and all is good now! 🙂

Thanks for your assistance, as it turned out to be be what you said, a minifying issue.

Go ahead and close this thread George, as all seems good now.

Cheers

Hi George,

Thanks for getting back to me on this.

I did what you suggested and went back to the default theme, twenty sixteen, and it didn’t fix it. I then deactivated all the plugins except the EC plugins and reactivated each plugin one at a time and checked to see which if any was causing the problem.

Turns out it was the W3 Total Cache plugin causing the problem, which was updated about a week ago, and that’s when the strange behaviour stated.

As my website is hosted with Synthesis, they have special settings they apply to this plugin, I will contact them and ask them to reset the plugin and see if it fixes the problem. Otherwise I may need you, if possible to help resolve the problem.

I’ll let you know how I get on George before asking you to close this thread.

Cheers

I just checked my account and it is now reflecting the renewal, so please close this post and mark as resolved.

Thanks

Hi Nico,

You can close this thread!

I worked out another way to get the result I was wanting without modifying any code or CSS.

Changing my wording of the fields and reorder the order I accomplish what I wanted.

Thanks for your assistance Nico, have a great day.

Cheers

Hi Nico,

Thanks for the quick reply.

Here is a link to a page on my site where I have set up the ticket to show how this looks at the moment.

Thanks,

Cheers

Hi Cliff,

An update on the situation.

I had a chance to download a fresh copy of event tickets and took the .pot file from the lang folder and reran it through Poedit, changing the translations and saving as event-tickets-en_AU.po and event-tickets-en_AU.mo files and uploaded them to the languages/plugins folder, then replaced the tickets.php file for the original one.

Everything is now working as it should!

So you can close this thread as things are solved, it seems there was an error in my .po file that was causing the problem.

Thanks for your assistance to date.

Cheers

Hi Cliff,

No it isn’t resolved. I still can’t get the “notices” in the tickets.php file to change via the translation file. e.g event-tickets-en-AU.po

The only way I can change the “notices” is via changing the wording within the core file. e.g /wp-content/plugins/event-tickets/src/Tribe/Tickets.php Lines 1267-1286

What I was saying in my last post was that you recommended to try the code at Change the wording of any bit of text or string, which I did. But when I do, it overrides all my other translations in the event-tickets-en-AU.po file.

So, I am back to where I was with the original question, of how can I change the “notices” in /wp-content/plugins/event-tickets/src/Tribe/Tickets.php Lines 1267-1286 so that I don’t overwrite them with a plugin update.

Cheers

James

Hi Cliff,

I’m not sure what “code” you’re asking for.
BUT, here is something I noticed! If I use the code below in my functions.php file, it override all the changes made in the translation files.

Cheers

Hi again Cliff,

Yes I am running the latest versions of the EC’s plugins including Event Tickets 4.2.1.1 hence why I’m at a loss as to why these notices aren’t working as I want them to, unless I change the core file.

I’ve loaded a fresh copy of wordpress, the event calendar, event tickets and nothing else onto a testing localhost site and it still doesn’t change.

Cheers

James
