Can't reset locations again

Hiya,

Do you have maps enabled? If you do, can you confirm you’re on the latest versions of both EM and WP please?

Also, can you try for the issue with all other plugins disabled and while using the default theme please?

Thanks,
Phil

I haven’t Maps activated. But activating it unfortunately doesn’t solve the bug.
I use the latest version von EM and WordPress 3.5.2
Disabling all plugins except EM and using default theme also doesn’t help to get rid of this bug.

I downgraded to EM 5.4.4 and now the bug is gone. So I assume there must have been something changed beginning with EM 5.5 that makes it impossible for me to reset locations.

were you getting this problem on the front-end or admin area of your site?

I’m testing and can’t reproduce this (testing on WP 3.6 though)

I can’t reset locations in frontend. So I’m getting this error only in backend.

I assume you mean you CAN reset locations in front-end?

I’ve tested this out on various sites and the reset is working ok for me.

If it happens again, it’d be worth looking at your javascript console for errors, e.g. in Chrome on Windows press ctrl + shift + J and view the console tab after trying to reset. Maybe there’s a clue there.

Since when one can edit in the frontend?? The reset of a location only makes sense for an admin. I don’t want every user to change the locations in my events…

What I can see in the source code is this:

<table class="em-location-data">
<tbody>
<tr>
<th>Name des Veranstaltungsortes:</th>
<td>
<input id="location-id" type="hidden" size="15" value="477" name="location_id">
<input id="location-name" type="text" value="Almaty" name="location_name">
<span style="color:red;">(*)</span>
<br>
<em></em>
<p id="em-location-reset" style="display:none;">
<em>
Gespeicherte Veranstaltungsorte k?nnen hier nicht bearbeitet werden.
<a href="#">Reset this form to create a location.</a>
</em>
</p>
</td>

I think on this line went something wrong:
<p id="em-location-reset" style="display:none;">

The “display:none” shouldn’t be there?

btw. I use Firefox 23.0.1 on Win 7.

if you can create new locations and edit your events, then you can reset the locations form too (since a user may want to change the location of the event).

display:none should be there by default i believe and then shown if you actually add a location. you’re running into JS problems here as that should appear when you select locations. I’m still suspecting another plugin or theme (or code you added somewhere?), because for me it works even with WP 3.5.2

with firefox you can use the firebug extention to view console errors.

I checked firebug error console but there are no errors shown, even no warnings… ??

And why don’t I have this bug with EM 5.4.4? For me it works too with that version. But with all versions above I have this issue…..?!

can’t replicate this either; can you also try to enable wp_debug?

Sorry guys I found out that it was a theme issue: I customized the submission form of EM some time ago like described here: https://wp-events-plugin.com/documentation/using-template-files/

I guess the files I copied from the plugin folder that time, ran out of date now and therefore became this bug.

Maybe it is better idea if you could implement more customization for that in the EM-backend in a future release. ??
