Hello!

I offer onlnine-events that can be booked and started at any time. How can I realize this?

The only option that I see at the moment: put the end date far into the future and hide the information about the booking (start date, time, symbols for ical …). ,

But how can I hide all booking information on a special page? I have seen many opportunities in the forum and tried, unfortunately without success.

Or is there another way to set such events?

Hi there,

Currently to set up those events in EE you need to set the end date into the future as you mentioned.

You can hide the details of that event using CSS, can you link me to the page? I’ll share an example of how you hide the details on that specific page.

Hi Tony,

here is the link to the page:
http://foto-kunst-kultur.de/veranstaltungen/foto-kolleg-kreativ/

The course description is on a different page. There I link only to the registration:
http://foto-kunst-kultur.de/foto-kolleg-kreativ/

However, the problem with a date in the far future is, that the confirmation page and -email show the date. Is there also a solution here?

Many thanks!

The course description is on a different page. There I link only to the registration:

You know you can use the [ESPRESSO_TICKET_SELECTOR event_id=xx] shortcode on that page do run the registration straight from that page?

However, the problem with a date in the far future is, that the confirmation page and -email show the date. Is there also a solution here?

To hide the dates on the event pages you can use some CSS and use the post-id to make sure it only applies to specific events:

.postid-15365 .event-datetimes {
    display: none;
}

For the emails you’ll need to create custom templates that don’t show any dates and set them on those types of events. For example the registration approved email, you can create a custom template (we have some documentation on that HERE), then set that on the event – http://take.ms/v5rDkh

The receipt template is the ‘confirmation page’ you mentioned.
