Hi! I’m currently writing some custom stuff in the events single page and need some help with a particular problem.<\/p>\n

The client required that a certain amount of tickets needed to be sold for an event to go ahead. If over 50% of the tickets were sold for an event we would display a message on the event page saying that it was guaranteed to go ahead.<\/p>\n

I wrote this snippet of code that does just that. It goes in the single event page:<\/p>\n


\n<?php
\n\t\/\/ Get Ticket ID by searching for Event ID
\n\tfunction get_tickets_for_event( $event_id ) {
\n\t$tickets = Tribe__Tickets__Tickets::get_all_event_tickets( $event_id );
\n\t$ticket_data = array();<\/p>\n

\t\/\/ Build a list of ticket names and prices
\n\tforeach ( $tickets as $single_ticket ) {
\n\t\t$product = wc_get_product( $single_ticket->ID );
\n\t\t$ticket_data[] = array(
\n\t\t$product->get_id()
\n\t\t);
\n\t}<\/p>\n

\t\/\/ Return Array
\n\treturn $ticket_data;<\/p>\n

\t}<\/p>\n

\t\/\/ We need to assign the foreach result as a variable so it can be called elsewhere.
\n\tforeach ( get_tickets_for_event( $event_id ) as $ticket ) {
\n\t\t$ticket_id .= $ticket[0].'';
\n\t}<\/p>\n

\t\/\/ Get Remaining Tickets and Total Capacity of Tickets for that event.
\n\t$remaining = tribe_events_count_available_tickets();
\n\t$capacity = tribe_tickets_get_capacity($ticket_id);<\/p>\n

\t\/\/ Calculate percentage based on remaining tickets and total capacity
\n $percentage = ($remaining * 100) \/ $capacity;<\/p>\n

?>
\n<\/code><\/p>\n

And then this goes within the loop:<\/p>\n


\n<?php if ($percentage >= 1 && $percentage <= 50) : ?><\/p>\n

\tThis event is guaranteed to go ahead<\/p>\n

<?php elseif($percentage > 50) : ?><\/p>\n

\tCurrently taking bookings<\/p>\n

<?php elseif($percentage == 0) : ?><\/p>\n

\tFully booked<\/p>\n

<?php endif; ?>
\n<\/code><\/p>\n

My problem is however, some of the events do not have tickets for sale, and when this happens it gives me an error on the page.<\/p>\n

I need to be able to check whether the event shown has any tickets at all, and if it doesn’t, don’t display anything.<\/p>\n

I’ve tried the following code wrapped around it and it does not work:<\/p>\n


\n<?php if(tribe_events_has_tickets()) : ?>
\nShow custom messages (in code above)
\n<?php endif; ?>
\n<\/code><\/p>\n

Any suggestions here?
