I have added the following code to my event description: [ESPRESSO_CART_LINK event_id=”7″ anchor=”Register for this Event”]. i have also turned off the “display registration form” in both of my events. however when you click on the “register” button, nothing happens – it just shows the word “cart” instead. What could I be doing wrong here? I have the MER plugin activated and I would like meeting attendants to be able to register for an additional workshop, which I have set up as a separate event. any ideas? see http://twsalaskameeting.com/current-conference/event-registration/?ee=7
thank you!

Hi Liz,
Can you first try removing event_id parameter from the shortcode and see if that makes a difference. So within your event description try:
[ESPRESSO_CART_LINK]
or
[ESPRESSO_CART_LINK anchor=”Register for this Event”]
The cart link will find the Event ID for the current event and add that to the cart.

Hi Tony – I can put in any of those codes and still I get the same results. I click on “register”, I see a little spinning symbol, then it turns in to the word “view cart” but nothing happens. Did I miss some essential step here??

Not sure if it’s related, but I also tried adding the “event espresso cart widget” to my page, and that does not show up at all when I save it.

The cart widget will only show when you have events in the cart so that wont show currently, as there is an issue adding events to the cart.
Are you running any caching plugins?
Can you go to Event Espresso -> System Status.
Are the any errors or warnings displayed? (they are usually red)
Specifically are there any errors mentioned within the ‘PHP Sessions’ section?

Hi,
Thanks for posting the report. I’m not seeing any issues in the report or on your site that would usually manifest when a problem like this occurs.
So, that means either your server has caching (you would need to ask your host about this), or there’s a silent conflict.
The conflict we can at least try to nail down via troubleshooting.
Please disable all addons except EE and Multiple Event Registration. Then see if the issue resolves itself.
If it does, please activate the plugins one by one, testing the issue each time (don’t forget to refresh the event page each time). This will help pinpoint the conflicting plugin.
If the issue persists when all other plugins are disabled, please try swapping to a default theme such as Twentytwelve to help rule out a theme conflict. You can use the Theme Test Drive plugin to test alternate themes without affecting user experience.

I will try to find out about the caching thing. should I disable ALL plugins on my site or just all of the Event Espresso add-ons (except the 2 you mentioned)?
thanks

I did play around with most of the plugins. doesn’t seem to make any difference. When I turn off MER, things seems to work ok, but when I turn it on, and either use the espresso cart short code (or turn the registration forms to show on each of my 3 events) it automatically adds the “register” or “add to cart” option under each one, as it should. however, I get the same result – nothing happens when I try to click on “register” other than a spinning icon, then it goes to “view cart”. if I then click on view cart, it goes to a page that says something like “the page you are trying to load..” and gives an error. I can give you the exact wording if it would be helpful

Hi,
ALL plugins except EE core and the Multiple Event Registration plugin. The idea is to see if another plugin is causing a conflict.
I’ve seen the error, so right now we need to know if the other plugins or theme are affecting anything as nothing obvious is showing up.

Dean it doesn’t appear to be the plugins – any other ideas? no matter whether I use the espresso cart link or simply just activate the MER and click on the “add to cart” button that comes up as the default the icon simply spins and nothing happens. I am turning off the plugin for now…not sure how to get around this. thanks

Hi, it looks like the event registration page is a child page of a parent page. Could you try raising it to a parent page so its no longer under another page?

Just tried that – with no luck. I think I will forget the Multiple event thing for now and just have separate links to each event for registration from my own page. thanks

Hi Elizabeth,
If you do decide to continue using the MER functionality and want us to look into the issue further please just advise.
