Hi,

Followed the instructions in this article:
https://eventespresso.com/topic/creating-badges-with-qr-codes-for-checking-in-out-in-ee4/

And now have the “Registraion URL link[REG_url_link]” column on my registrant exports.

The problem is that they’re not full URLs – where do I find the rest of the URL string?

Sample values in that column just say “1-61507371c4b068b72599b55b112c74ca” or “1-e3e3d2a8f97e6aab3ae8229490ebad8a”

Thanks,
Stephanie

Hi Stephanie,

Did you add the snippet to your active child theme’s functions.php file?

Hi Stephanie,

Event Espresso will very rarely store the full URL for anything (there are times when we do it, but we’ll avoid doing so as much as we can) as it means that data is then linked to the current URL and changes to the current URL will break whatever feature is using the ‘old’ full URL from the database.

The snippet I created above simply adds the values used within the EE4 QR codes into the CSV.

May I ask why you want the full URL in that field?

The snippet was designed to allow the user to import the CSV into Avery to make their own badges and have working QR codes that could be scanned via the EE4 Mobile apps.

So, if generating QR codes to be scanned using the EE4 mobile apps they don’t use the Full URL and just the value above. The mobile app then handles where to send that request when you’ve logged into via the app.

So, may I ask what the use case is here, please?
