Location Custom Attributes

    I am not seeing the answer to this (or how to make it work) in the docs or forums, so here goes:

    For our locations (there are hundreds), we want to have additional fields to indicate additional info about individual locations in addition to the address information. (This site lists locations and events for a specific sport.) That information would be such as: whether it is an indoor or outdoor location, whether there are locker rooms, is the location public or private, etc.

    I thought I could use the Location Customer Attributes (Events/settings/General/Location Attributes), and it may be the correct way, but I am not seeing in-depth step-by-step instructions on how to do this in the docs, on youtube, or in the forums.

    In the end, I want to be able to enter these information types by checkbox, radio button, etc when creating the location, and then have the info show up on each location page and each event page.

    Any help???

    for the custom location/event attributes, you can check this article https://wp-events-plugin.com/documentation/event-attributes/ however using checkbox, radio button, etc in location is not currently possible and might require lots of coding on your part if you want to make this work.

    Read the article.
    It appears that using the attributes is for the registration page use.
    We are hoping to use them a little differently: As we enter a location, we would like to have the same form fields show up on the location creation page, not the registration page.
    Example:
    The location is XYZ Athletic Fields.
    As we create the Location page for that (and all) locations, we would like to have fields for such things as:
    – Whether there is lighting
    – Whether there are toilets
    – Whether there are fees to use the facility
    – Etc

    We would then enter responses for each location on its page, and then the search function would need to be able to parse that saved information?

    Is that possible using Location Attributes; or, am I not seeing a better way of accomplishing this???

    yes, it should also show on the admin location creation page however making it searchable is requiring you to do the custom coding.
