Make registration button link to external URL

Hi @erikrolfsen ,

To change the layout of registration on single event page, you need to override below template files at your theme side.

wp-content\plugins\wp-event-manager\templates\event-registration.php

wp-content\plugins\wp-event-manager\templates\event-registration-url.php

The above two files, you need to copy and just paste in your theme_folder\wp-event-manager and change as per your requirement. In “event-registration.php” file, you will find the button, and in “event-registration-url.php” file, you will get the code for URL link.

You can read how to override the template filr from here : https://wp-eventmanager.com/knowledge-base/how-override-archive-template/

Thank you.

Hmm, I don’t have anything named wp-event-manager in my theme folder. The only place I’ve seen that is in my plugins folder.

Hi @kikanirita
copying files doesn’t help

”?change as per your requirement. In “event-registration.php” file, you will find the button, and in “event-registration-url.php” file, you will get the code for URL link.”
what changes should we make to get url worked in a proper way?

Hi @erikrolfsen , You have to create folder “wp-event-manager” in your theme.

Hi @affso ,

you need to write below code in your theme side “event-registration.php” file and your query would be resolve.

<?php if($register = get_event_registration_method()) :

    if($register->type) : ?>

        <div class="event_registration registration">

            <?php do_action('event_registration_start', $register); ?>

            <div class="wpem-event-sidebar-button wpem-registration-event-button">

                <a class="wpem-theme-button" href="<?php echo esc_url($register->url); ?>" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" >

                    <?php _e('Register for event', 'wp-event-manager'); ?>

                </a>

            </div>

        </div>

    <?php endif;

endif; ?>

Thank you.

Doesn’t work, “url” is empty.
But I see that you are working on it
https://github.com/wpeventmanager/wp-event-manager/issues/1445

And in meta keys there is no _event_registration_url
there is only _event_registration_email

Hello @affso ,

For the information only, we used _event_registration_email either it is email or it is url, but when the value fetch from meta to display on single event page, we verified that if the format of value is like email then will return as a email else the format is like url then will return url and display url link on single event page.

Issue already resolve in github, so please use the latest version from github repository 3.1.37.
