Show User has bookings on Events List

just to confirm, what you’ve wanted to do is use a conditional placeholder to check whether an event does have attendees/bookings or not?

Hi Angelo

I want to confirm that the currently logged on user has a booking for an event and indicate this alongside the event in the event list. e.g.
Date Event/location Attending

I have attempted to adapt the code from the tutorials as follows, but when I add it to the functions.php file the website locks up. I am obviously doing something stupid!

add_filter(’em_event_output_placeholder’,’my_em_isbooked_placeholders’,1,3);
function my_em_isbooked_placeholders($user_id = false, $replace, $EM_Event, $result){
????global $wp_query, $wp_rewrite;
????switch( $result ){
????????case ‘#_ISBOOKED’:
????????$replace = ‘No’;
/**
* Checks to see if user has a booking for this event
* @param unknown_type $user_id
*/
if( $user_id === false ){
$user_id = get_current_user_id();
}
if( is_numeric($user_id) && $user_id > 0 ){
foreach ($this->bookings as $EM_Booking){
if( $EM_Booking->person->ID == $user_id && !in_array($EM_Booking->booking_status, array(2,3)) ){
replace ‘Yes’;
}else{
replace = ‘No’;
}
}
}
}
????return $replace;
}

Do you have the code correctly wrapped within PHP tags?

Yes, I am putting it at the end of the theme’s functions.php file before the ?> tag.

Can you post a link where we can see the functions.php file?

A text version of the Functions.php can be viewed here: https://ww2ops.uk/functions.txt (the php file required login to view). I have made some modifications to try to just get a simple “Yes” if the user has a booking and nothing otherwise. The new code is at the very end of the file.
Many thanks.

I think the problem is the wrong kind of single quote character in the custom code snippet. In a couple of places you have curly / smart quotes instead of the straight kind.

Try changing

$replace = ‘Yes’;

to

$replace = 'Yes;

and

add_filter(’em_event_output_placeholder’,’my_em_styles_placeholders’,1,3);

to

add_filter('em_event_output_placeholder','my_em_styles_placeholders',1,3);
