Ticket element - overwrite rules about events

[anchovy]

Or - maybe another option is to only verify the availableTo against the availableFrom and de-couple them from the event endDate. This way users/admins have flexibility to set ticket dates that work for their use case.

Yii rules are a little difficult to "unset", but it certainly is possible! You'll want to loop through any of the rules configured for the element and remove it, adding your own.

use craft\events\DefineRulesEvent;
use verbb\events\elements\Ticket;
use yii\base\Event;

Event::on(Ticket::class, Ticket::EVENT_DEFINE_RULES, function(DefineRulesEvent $event) {
    foreach ($event->rules as $key => $rule) {
        [$attribute, $validator] = $rule;

        if ($attribute === ['availableFrom', 'availableTo']) {
            unset($event->rules[$key]);
        }

        if ($attribute === ['availableFrom']) {
            unset($event->rules[$key]);
        }
    }
});

But you'll need to get on the latest craft-4 branch for that as well.

And yeah, I'll consider that. I was just thinking that there's no point in offering tickets for sale once the end date of the event is over, but this is purely a validation step.

Hi, thanks for that. We've started the upgrade to craft-v4, so I'll get that finished and hook into unsetting these rules. Thanks.
