I set up a success message in the plugin settings, both in the regular and anonymous eent submission fields.

But the message never shows up.

I’ve tried it with “Show form again” checked and without. Neither will show the message so I just have it set not to show the form again. Sometimes this has resulted in someone submitting the same event more than once.

Is there a way to get the success message to show up OR to redirect them to a success page?

Thanks

I have the event submission form to allow anonymous submissions (i.e. from not logged-in users).

I have the anonymous account set to “member” with the following permissions as shown in the photo:

I just enabled “edit locations” now as I was trying to solve this issue.

When someone submits an event from the front end when they are not logged in, the location form searches and shows available locations, but it never shows the map or pulls in the rest of the information — what ends up happening is that they just don’t add their event with a location attached (and I put a note in the form not to enter locations if it wasn’t working as they CAN enter a new location and I was ending up with a bunch of duplicates).

If I log in as a member (same user permissions) then the map is shown and it gets all of the location info.

Is there any way to fix this so non-logged-in users can add an existing location to their events?

Thanks

How can I change this text? I would like to suggest another naming convention than “birthday party.”

Also, the “required” asterisk is wrapping to the next line after the input field. Any idea how to fix that?

Thank you in advance!

When the submitter submits an event and the image they’re using does not fit within the image restrictions (which we’ve recently loosened up on to help remedy this), they’ll receive an error saying the image was too big, small, etc…but the event is still being submitted but as a draft. So when they go to fix the image with all the same info filled out in the remaining fields, after hitting submit, they are shown the “Unauthorized Access” error message.

I’ve gone through and tested without certain plugins deactivated and re-updated the permissions for the event submitter with no luck.

My main question is, is there a way to not process the event if they get a form error and if not, then is there a reason they’re not allowed to edit their own event?

Thanks for your help in advance.

I’d like to change a few things inside the frontend submission form. For example I wish I could change the way categories are display. How can I change the multiple selection for categories to checkboxes? It would be more simple for users. I think I have to code something inside categories-public.php instead of this:

<!-- START Categories -->
	<label for="event_categories[]"><?php _e ( 'Category:', 'events-manager'); ?></label>
	<select name="event_categories[]" multiple size="10">
	<?php
	$selected = $EM_Event->get_categories()->get_ids();
	$walker = new EM_Walker_CategoryMultiselect();
	$args_em = array( 'hide_empty' => 0, 'name' => 'event_categories[]', 'hierarchical' => true, 'id' => EM_TAXONOMY_CATEGORY, 'taxonomy' => EM_TAXONOMY_CATEGORY, 'selected' => $selected, 'walker'=> $walker);
	echo walk_category_dropdown_tree($categories, 0, $args_em);
	?></select>
	<!-- END Categories -->

Can anyone help me? Thank you!
