Hi there,

We can’t tell why that is happening from a screenshot.

Can you link to an event we can run a test registration on to view this?

How are you adding that registration question into the form?

It’s currently not set within a question group which is why its not aligned.

it is set to the “personal information” group just like the AGB. i dulicated the AGB and edited it- might this cause the error?

this didnt help. seems to be a bug in the plugin. when i put the questions up in the order its all aligned… any idea how to fix it?

I’ve just tested doing that to confirm it works (which it does).

Can you post a screenshot of both of those questions when editing them, please? I’d like to try and reproduce this.

Also, the second checkbox is essentially a GDPR confirmation, we have that built into Event Espresso already under Event Espresso -> Registration Form -> Privacy -> Privacy Consent Checkbox

i know about the built-in gdpr confirmation – it just looks odd if AGB and gdpr look so different.

here are the screenshots:

Yeah I can not (edit) reproduce this event with the same set up.

Can you post the contents of the descriptions fields for each of those questions.

Just noting I made a typo in my previous reply, I said I can reproduce but I meant to put I can not reproduce.

Hmm, yeah again those are fine.

Try creating a new checkbox question and using that in place of the last question. I can’t see any reason for that checkbox to show outside of the question group if it is set to load within it.

I also just noticed now, that the page messes up my site configuration: the sidebar vanishes and is shown at the bottom… might this give a hint?

Have you altered any files within EE?

Are you loading any custom templates in EE?

Are you hooking into EE reg steps at all? I’ve seen you’ve posted using various hooks in other threads if you remove those does the same happen?

I can’t reproduce multiple checkboxes displaying like this.

I also just noticed now, that the page messes up my site configuration: the sidebar vanishes and is shown at the bottom… might this give a hint?

Possibly, there are additional closing div tags because the personal info group essential closes twice which will throw the content of the page off.

If you enable WP_DEBUG on the site, are any error thrown on that page?

no, no, no and no… 🙂

how can i solve this?

Without reproducing this I can’t say as I don’t know how it is happening.

The first step I recommend is re-installing Event Espresso through the plugin manager to confirm nothing happened with the upload.

Go to Dashboard -> Plugins.

De-activate and delete Event Espresso (none of your event/registration data will be lost)

Download the latest version from your account page again and install the zip through Dashboard -> Plugins -> Add new -> Upload plugin.

Re-activate.

Same issue?

If so, can I take a look over the admin? If so you can send temp login details using this form:

Yes, simply send temp credentials using the link above and I’ll take a look to see if anything stands out.

This is due to the ‘Question Text’ field being empty for those questions, you’ll need to set a value within that field to fix this.

If you don’t want the question text field visible you can use CSS to hide the text for now and I’ll create a ticket to investigate this further.


benzett

September 14, 2020 at 12:05 pm

I’m sorry I dont know which “question text” field you mean?


benzett

September 14, 2020 at 12:09 pm

if you mean the top field in the “modify a question” menu – that doesnt change anything if I type in sth in there. the question will still not show up aligned…

Did you add something into both question fields?

It’s this the ‘Abfragetext’ section shown here: https://monosnap.com/file/y0ZFn67R0snJAm7MQamCEfYofn15Up

Both of your questions will need something in that field.

Also, in the checkbox description target=_blank is incorrect and should be target="_blank"


benzett

September 14, 2020 at 3:20 pm

oh nice! I added an empty space and now it works! Thank you!
