Hi,
See our event registration page below:
http://www.jump2it.com.au/event-registration/?ee=496
I would like to remove the requirement for an email to be entered (and checked) or remove the field form it all together as we only use the system for a names list.
We have had too many problems where the email wasn’t accepted by the system and this is losing clients.
Thanks
Dylan

Hi Dylan,
Event Espresso actually requires the email address to be input there. If you’re looking to only get names on a list, you can embed a contact form by using a contact form plugin there.

Hi Josh,
Thanks for your reply, so there is absolutely no way to use the existing system but disable email address or at least the “check” for the email address validity? We don’t ever send out any email and have disabled emails being sent to the user who registers for the event.
Thanks

There’s a way to hack EE3 so it doesn’t try to validate the required email address field. Here’s a link to a gist that shows how:

You can add the above to a functions plugin or into your WordPress theme’s functions.php file.

Strange, I do run EE3 and that code gives a “call to undefined function” for wp_add_inline_script

wp_add_inline_script was added to WordPress in version 4.5.0:
https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/wp_add_inline_script/
What version of WP are you currently running?

The website runs 4.4.7
I have taken on this website and am unaware of any customisations that would break with an update so would rather stay as is until the client is ready to pay for the update along with any fixes required.
Is there an alternative function to achieve the same that will work with 4.4.7?

I added a second code example that will work on sites that don’t have WordPress 4.5:
