Hello
I directly have several concerns with which I cannot get any further.
I use Themify Ultra and have 2 events active on my site my site.

1) As I currently have EE integrated, each of these events has a shopping cart button.
But this is very annoying.

my overview site

I have not found a way to list both events together on this page, but I only have one shopping cart butt, which is valid for both.

2) When I go to the shopping cart, all the little tokens like the plus and minus sign, or the delete sign are gone.
Also the writing in the quantity field, is white on white background.
Is there a possibility to change the font color and get the characters back?

Screenshot

3) I have actually set an overview page, but the button on the shopping cart page always leads to the EE standard page. Can I change the link in any way?

4) I have the same problem as in 2, also with the participant information page.

Screenshot

You don’t see a single piece of information that you enter because it’s white on white. And I don’t know how to change the font color in the lines.

I’m hoping you can help me with that.
Best regards.

Hi there,

I need to be able to view your site to look into this, but it looks like the site is down currently:

https://monosnap.com/file/pXC3y1BFSQV4GkAIutO8crEZ5dj7ZX

Can you check into this please, I’ll take a look at the above points once I can view the site as the screenshots don’t provide enough context.

Thanks for the quick response.
My hosting provider is having some serious problems right now.
I hope to be back online in the course of the day.

ok i have solved the problem with the white font color on the white input fields.
is not the best, but a working solution.

input{
color: black ! important;
}

I still haven’t gotten anywhere with the other stuff.

Me I’ve been rehearsing and programming with a friend the last days.

I have solved points 2 and 4.

Point 3 I found a workaround. I just redirect the “event overview” page to the standard login page on server level.

But point 1 is still open.
While testing I also noticed that you can get a little bit lost with this(my) setup.

So if you put an item into the shopping cart, and then go back from the cartoverview to the first page, you lose the session ID – the button can’t just redirect to the shopping cart again. You have to add an item to the shopping cart first and then remove it afterwards. To get again to your shopping cart.

A separate shopping cart button on the first page would help.
This button replaces the other two “Go to shopping cart” buttons.

Is such a change possible?

What I’m also noticing in testing is follwing:
I’m embedding events via an IFrame. If I have a waiting list open, this option is not given via the IFrame. It just says “Sold out”.

Sorry for spamming 😀

Hi there

You can’t combine all of the ticket selectors into a single button, the users needs to select and submit the ticket per event.

2) When I go to the shopping cart, all the little tokens like the plus and minus sign, or the delete sign are gone.
Also the writing in the quantity field, is white on white background.

That’s from styles being added by themify builder, it’s explicitly setting all of the inputs to use white, which means:

is not the best, but a working solution.

It’s the solution you need to use, although you can make the selector more specific to only target the event cart:

#event-cart input{
color: black!important;
}

3) I have actually set an overview page, but the button on the shopping cart page always leads to the EE standard page. Can I change the link in any way?

Do you mean the ‘Return to event list’ link? If so you can change that using a filter, for example:

https://gist.github.com/joshfeck/e51ac13a3d9fd345ad40

You can add that to a custom functions plugin on your site, we have some documentation on creating one here:

https://eventespresso.com/wiki/create-site-specific-plugin-wordpress-site/

4) I have the same problem as in 2, also with the participant information page.

You can change that link using something like this:

Your event shows the waitlist option for me:

May I ask why you are using the iframe rather than the [ESPRESSO_TICKET_SELECTOR event_ID=x] shortcode?

Thanks for the response.
I try to implement the things

I find the design with the lines as differentiation more appealing. Thats why i use the IFrame method.

Is there a possibility to create an extra shopping cart butten, on an other site, that takes the open ID?

You could style the ticket selector to be a little more like the iframe look rather than using the iframe itself.

iFrames are intended to output the content of site A within site B, using them on the same site breaks the normal flow.

Sorry but I don’t follow this, can you add more details?
