Available Hook: event_form_save

When an event is created or edited, the system automatically triggers:

$this->do_action('event_form_save', $event_id, $_POST);

This means your addon can listen for the event_form_save hook without modifying core files. The hook passes:

• $event_id → ID of the event being created/edited
• $_POST → The form data submitted for the event

How to Use It in an Addon

Create a file in your addon under modules//hooks/event_form_save.php. Return a callable function that receives $event_id and $args (the POST array).

query(sprintf(
        "UPDATE events SET 
            event_has_form = %s,
            event_form_url = %s,
            event_form_code = %s
         WHERE event_id = %s",
        secure($has_form, 'int'),
        secure($form_url),
        secure($form_code),
        secure($event_id, 'int')
    ));
};

Debugging

If your hook doesn’t fire, confirm that:

• The file is named exactly event_form_save.php under modules//hooks/
• Your function returns a closure
• You are using $this->do_action() (already integrated in the event system)

This hook system is reusable — you can attach any extra logic (logging, notifications, integrations) without editing the core event files.
