@rpowers23 I guess this was already discussed here: https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/online-meeting-requires-address/

Great! Thank you ??

BTW: I added the some common online meeting types in our installation:

if (!empty($tsml_conference_providers)) {
	$tsml_conference_providers['join.skype.com'] = 'Skype';
	$tsml_conference_providers['discord.gg'] = 'Discord';
}

I know, that they won’t be displayed in Meeting Guide but that’s ok at this moment (I guess). Are there any other potential issues with this approach I should be aware of right now?

I’ve just set the $tsml_conference_providers to null and I see this warning in the admin panel:

Warning: array_values() expects parameter 1 to be array, null given in /wp-content/plugins/12-step-meeting-list/includes/functions.php on line 167

Warning: array_unique() expects parameter 1 to be array, null given in /wp-content/plugins/12-step-meeting-list/includes/functions.php on line 167

Warning: implode(): Invalid arguments passed in /wp-content/plugins/12-step-meeting-list/includes/admin_meeting.php on line 89

right above the URL field. Is there some option to turn off the validation safely?

@tech2serve

Groups in Poland are using Discord for both audio and text chat capabilities. Audio is used for regular on-line meetings while text channels are used for other activities like sharing readings for the meetings, looking for sponsors and general organization of the group.

In addition to what @mikecnc wrote – I observe the same behavior. Neither “Online Meeting” nor the meeting url/number is saved after clicking “Publish”. Is it intentional (for the current version)?

Skype and phone teleconference services are the most popular solutions for online meetings in Poland. There are also many Discord, Google Meet and a few GoToMeeting meetings.

Hi @lovethecode,

This is exactly the way I’ve done it in the first place and the result is what I described. The dropdown shows the sub-districts but the list does not display the meetings (more precisely – meetings of the groups) that are assigned to them; only the meetings of groups directly assigned to the parent district are shown.

Best wishes,
Marek

Correct, Group phone/email is displayed because the expectation is that groups would have that information public so they can be reached.

Yes, I understand the reasoning behind this decision. Unfortunately, as I mentioned, it’s not that simple in EU (because of GDPR) in cases, where this data can be filled by many people that don’t understand or even care about the compliance with the law ??

Anyway, even though the problem with error (invalid argument supplied...), I think the users can live with that if it’s not reproducible in other environments.

Thank you for all your time!

Hi @tech2serve,

Sorry for the late response. I cannot roll back all the changes since this would lead to revealing the personal data that cannot be publicly shown without proper consent (the meetings data is managed by multiple servants and I cannot guarantee if they gather the consents).

The setting you refer to is set to keep this data private, but the group phone number/e-mail is still displayed when it’s filled. Only the contacts were hidden. That’s why I had to modify the original template.

Hi @tech2serve,

I deactivated two suspected plugins (“Restrict user access” and “Adminimize”) but the behavior is still the same.

I customized the functions.php file as follows (customizing translations, adding new meeting attribute, etc.): https://gist.github.com/TheGreenSourcerer/bb950843724b82aee45bf590f99b6e2e

and the single-meeting.php template file (to hide the group e-mail and phone number because of the potential GDPR-related law issues in EU):
https://gist.github.com/TheGreenSourcerer/fa0e58b4bdc09deec465c747768159a1

A new observation – after the first error (on meeting entry creation) I opened the meeting details and tried to fill the group details again with the “apply group to location” option checked. On the second save (update actually) the details were saved normally. So it looks like only the first publish is affected.

Cheers,
Marek
