I’m using Event Espresso to collect registration information and providing a link to an external pay portal. Since I’m not collecting funds via Event Espresso my reg form says “Free Event.” I don’t want my registrants to be misled, so I’d like to remove this from the form. Can someone give me pointers on which template(s) and which function(s) in the template to edit? |
Hi Mark, If you wanted to do this for all events, you could insert this code into your theme’s style.css file: .event_prices { display: none; } |
|
I’m curious, if you don’t mind me asking, why aren’t you using Event Espresso’s payment gateways? |

Jonathan, I’ll try adding the code to our theme style sheet, but I would still like to know how to edit templates. Regarding your question: take a look at this thread. https://eventespresso.com/topic/problems-with-multiple-event-registration/ We have an annual event that includes additional activities which are paid for a la carte. I want ti give registrants the option to pay for the primary event and all additional activities at the same time. I found when I offered a menu of payment options registrants are required to enter at least minimum personal data for each item added to the cart. I want attendees to register a single time not have to re enter registration information for each additional activity they pay for. I was told Event Espresso does not now and will not in the future support this capability. |

Ok, added the recommended code to our theme stylesheet; didn’t work. I assume you meant for me to edit “style.css” in the directory containing the files for the selected site theme. If that isn’t correct then I’ll need more explicit directions. |
|
Hi Mark, There is a typo in the class name, the CSS code should be .event_price {display: none; } (singular, not plural) do sorry about that. And you added it to the correct place, so just remove the s on prices and you should be good to go. |

Dean, Corrected the typo; still didn’t work. Here’s the page view for the Event: http://www.lancairowners.com/event-registration/?ee=2 Notice on the registration form just under the date and time the text reads “Free Event” Can I just delete the code that calls for the price data in the template? If so, which template and which code?
|

Hi Mark, You can delete the code, but the CSS resolution is the better option. I also think I had a mad moment, in that looking at the site again it is plural. As such, can you provide login details and I will resolve the issue for you. If so, please send them via https://eventespresso.com/send-login-details/ NOTE: login details need to be Admin level. |
|
Dean, I appreciate the offer, but I don’t have authorization to give you that level of access. Our site is running on donated server space, and I’d have get authorization from a third party. Besides, I’d like to learn to maintain the site myself, and just doesn’t seem like that complicated a problem. Is there a link to more detailed documentation? |
|
OK, no problem. We have no documentation on this, but there is a lot of CSS related documentation on the web, eg http://www.w3schools.com/css/. Regarding the issue at hand, one of these will resolve the issue, and I am sorry about any confusion I caused. .event_prices {display:none; } .free_event {display: none; } You can add that to the style.css file of your theme or use a plugin such as My Custom CSS. |
|
Thanks Dean, that last bit of code did the trick. I’ll look over the CSS info at the link and let you know if I have any other questions. |
|
Ok, good to hear you got it working! |
