Skipping over "Please choose a payment option" step in EE3

Hello, I had been using an out of date version of EE for a client the past two years. I finally convinced them to upgrade to the latest version of EE3 but during the payment process, a new step seems to have been added.

In the past a person would register for an event, hit the register button, and then go into collection of payment info. Now it seems that there is a registration confirmation page that asks for the user to select a payment option. The site only uses one payment gateway (Authorize.Net) so having to select the credit card option when it is the only option seems redundant and forces one additional step for users.

Currently on WordPress 4.0.1 and EE3.1.36.6. The old installation was deleted as there were some issues with the site so this is a new/fresh install of EE and we prefer the legacy template EE Grid LIght Boxes (if that makes a difference).

The registration is currently up at https://www.charitiesatwork.org/annual-summit/2015-2/summit-registration/ if you wish to look.

Thank you!

Hi,

Try this line of CSS in your child theme’s stylesheet or a plugin like Reaktiv CSS builder or My Custom CSS:

#aim-payment-option-form-dv.hide-if-js {display:block !important;}

Thanks! That got it almost to what I was hoping for. The payment form is now displayed by default when submitting the registration page. It does still show the “Please choose payment option” and button for “pay with credit card.” Is there a way to get that to not display as well? I suppose I could cut it from the php but I dislike editing any of the hard code for pluggins that get regular updates.

Thanks again!

Hi Matthew,

You can copy templates from this location:

wp-content/plugins/event-espresso/templates

to this location:

wp-content/uploads/espresso/templates

Then you could edit the templates. However, I do have a question on the additional change that you are trying to make.

If the credit card option is removed, then how would an attendee/registrant pay for their registration?

Wow, thanks for the very fast reply.

The credit card payment form itself would still be visible, just wish to remove to items from displaying. I can find them in Chrome and “delete node” to see how the page would look, but then when looking through the css and php files, I can’t seem to find where those items are being written to the page.

I have taken screen shots to give you an idea of what I am looking for. As I cannot embed images, I have made them links tot he images saved on my G+ account:

Current Layout

“Pay with credit card” icon link

“Choose other payment option” text link

Preferred Layout

Hi Matthew,

For the “Pay with credit card icon” use this:

#aim-payment-option-lnk {
display: none;
}

For the “Choost other payment option” link, use this:

p.choose-diff-pay-option-pg {
display: none;
}

The output should then look like this – http://take.ms/97OEW
