Hi Miranda,

The registration form template was made to only display the event information to logged in users. Some folks prefer that the information to be displayed, some not.

That said, this can be modified according to you or your client’s specification. Inside the /templates/registration.php file there is a section of code that is there to check if the user is logged in or not. It looks like this:

//If enough spaces exist then show the form
//Check to see if the Members plugin is installed.
if ( function_exists('espresso_members_installed') && espresso_members_installed() == true && !is_user_logged_in() && ($member_only == 'Y' || $member_options['member_only_all'] == 'Y') ) {
    event_espresso_user_login();
} else {
    //Serve up the registration form

You can add in the event’s description by adding in one line of code:

//If enough spaces exist then show the form
//Check to see if the Members plugin is installed.
if ( function_exists('espresso_members_installed') && espresso_members_installed() == true && !is_user_logged_in() && ($member_only == 'Y' || $member_options['member_only_all'] == 'Y') ) {
  
  // Show the event description
  echo espresso_format_content($event_desc);
  // end event description

  event_espresso_user_login();
} else {
    //Serve up the registration form

The links from the sidebar widget go to the same place, so yes it will work.

You have a great weekend too Miranda.

Hi,

Basically, if you use the regisatration_page_display code, you can add anything you want to what Josh has shown you, e.g. after the

echo espresso_format_content($event_desc);

add

?>
						
						
						
						
										<p class="start_date">
					<?php if ($end_date !== $start_date) { ?>
					<span class="span_event_date_label">
					<?php _e('Start Date: ', 'event_espresso'); ?>

Regarding the Pretty login/registration pages, it already goes there for me.

Ahhh sorry,

After the first ?> add this

	<h3 class="event_title ui-widget-header ui-corner-top" id="event_title-<?php echo $event_id; ?>">
		<?php echo $event_name ?> <?php echo $is_active['status'] == 'EXPIRED' ? ' - <span class="expired_event">Event Expired</span>' : ''; ?> <?php echo $is_active['status'] == 'PENDING' ? ' - <span class="expired_event">Event is Pending</span>' : ''; ?> <?php echo $is_active['status'] == 'DRAFT' ? ' - <span class="expired_event">Event is a Draft</span>' : ''; ?>
	</h3>

Nope, not America 🙂 Finland so no holiday for me!

The Finns get about, they are good to know, though not always easy to get to know 🙂

Glad it’s sorted for you!

Hi Miranda,

I can suggest reverting the changes back to the way they were before, and going with the suggestion to include the description for logged out viewers here:

https://eventespresso.com/topic/event-information-not-showing-after-more-tag-unless-logged-in/#post-57421

Then add the event title just above the description.

<?php echo $event_name ?>

Other variables can be copied over from registration_page_display.php if need be to get the other information.

Hi Miranda,

If you’re customizing the registration_page_display.php template, then that’s the wrong template.

The code changes should go into registration-display.php not registration_page_display.php. I’m sorry for not clarifying that bit.

In order to make the event title into a heading it can be wrapped in an H tag like so:

<h3><?php echo $event_name ?></h3>

September 11, 2013 at 4:06 pm

In that case, it would be something like this:

echo '<h3>' . $event_name . '</h3>';

What happens is the code is already between a <?php and ?> tag, things will break if another <?php tag is added within that code block.

Hi Miranda,

I’ve emailed you regarding this and your other threads 🙂

September 24, 2013 at 2:19 am

Hi Miranda,

Unfortunately EE doesn’t really integrate with ‘members’ in such a way that this would be possible without some heavy customisations.

It would depend on how you want this to work, for example if you would like the user to be able to register, log in, but then not be able to register onto an Event until approved you’ll need a lot of customisation work.

The other way to do it is to withhold the users password and not auto log-in when registering. So basically when someone registers they can not do anything more than they could previous (including logging in) until the admin approves, once the admin approves an email is sent to the user containing their login credentials.

The second option can be achieved using a plugin like New User Approve which does as described above although I’m unsure if it will work correctly with wishlist.

September 24, 2013 at 4:53 am

Unfortunately the above was the easy option.

1. Wishlist is taking over the registrations, so that plugin is ignored. Here’s what happens on my test site when registering. http://d.pr/i/BluZ then the admin can approve/deny http://d.pr/i/tCS8.

2. This would mean wrapping the registration form within a function to check with WLM as to whether or not the user was approved. (or at a guess a certain level of membership?) unfortunately this level of customisations is not something we do under normal support.

I’m not very familiar with Wishlist but does it not have an option to pre-approve all members?

September 24, 2013 at 11:56 pm

That sounds like a good brainwave, please keep us informed!

September 27, 2013 at 6:28 am

Well it sounded like a good idea to me!

“the client wants each new registrant to wait to be ok-ed by admin before the new registrant is able to register for an event.”

Wishlist may say differently, but to me this is a membership issue more than event related, as the person is registered with the site first before even going near events, and its that registration that you want to be able to approve.
