Editing Name, Email: An Error Occurred. The request failed to pass a security…

When attempting to edit the name, email or other fields in the basic question group I am receiving this message:

“An Error Occurred. The request failed to pass a security check.”

After reading other posts, I logged in and out and still am receiving the same message. I am using 3.1.34.1.P and the latest version of WordPress.

Hi Kevin,

It may help to clear the browser or use a different browser.

If all else fails you can bypass the security check until we get this straightened out. If you edit includes/admin-reports/edit_attendee_record.php and comment out the three lines that say:

wp_die( $failed_nonce_msg );

I see them on lines 61, 148, and 195. They can be changed to:

//wp_die( $failed_nonce_msg );

I am having the same problem, although it is only happening if I try to edit info for an additional attendee – editing the primary registrant seems to work fine.

Hi Rob,

Have you tried Josh’s workaround? What version of Event Espresso are you using?

Edit: Rob can we carry on this conversation on your thread https://eventespresso.com/topic/error-when-modifying-registrant-fields/#post-57479

Have we found an answer for this problem yet? I am also having this issue when editing attendee fields primary or additional either one.

Hi there,

Currently the work around is to disable the security check on line 195 of edit_attendee_record.php where it says:

wp_die( $failed_nonce_msg );

you can change it to:

// wp_die( $failed_nonce_msg );
