Please help,

Cheers

Can you post a link to your site? The most common cause for this is a jQuery conflict — your theme may be loading jQuery that hasn’t been wrapped in a noConflict mode statement.

We are having this same issue. It was working fine. But then all of the sudden the add more attendees link isn’t working.

Our site is http://legaldigestevents.com/

Which version of WordPress is installed? The version of jQuery that is being loaded up is really old. It should be version 1.7, but version 1.4.4 is loading up according to the page source.

I’m having the same problem. I’m on WordPress 3.4.1.
My site is: http://hccdallas.kimmarla.com/event-registration/

It looks like if I don’t ask for any extra information – just the number of registrations – it’s working OK. But when I want Personal Information Only, it just hangs when I hit “Add More Attendees”

Hi Kim,

Can you try testing another theme to see if we can narrow down the cause? If you need to leave the theme active because it’s a live site, the theme test drive plugin will let you test out another theme as the admin. I recommend testing with the twentyeleven theme.

Here’s one more thing that will help us figure this out:

For the Golf invitational, try increasing the max group limit.

Thanks – I tried that, but got the same result. Now it’s got a limit of 20.
Thanks for helping me troubleshoot this. I can’t switch the theme at this minute because someone else is working on the home page as we speak.

In the meantime, try wrapping the [ESPRESSO_EVENTS] shortcode in a [raw] short tag like this:

[raw][ESPRESSO_EVENTS][/raw]

What it looks like in Firebug is there is an unterminated string literal, which is usually caused by a break in the JavaScript that handles the add more attendee toggle.

Thanks, Josh – I’ll be happy to try it, but please let me know what page that’s on. I’m not very advanced at this 😉

Something else is wrong. I registered four people, paid through Paypal, and it’s still showing up as incomplete payment on the attendees report.

Sure thing, It’s the page with the events on it. It should be http://hccdallas.kimmarla.com/event-registration/ Edit that page.

I tried with theme 2011 test drive. When I hit “Add more people” (or whatever it says) this time it did start to give me boxes to fill in the names. But as soon as I tried to click in one, it bounced me back to the home page. It did the same thing 3 times.

The [raw] seemed to do the trick. Thanks!

I am having the same problem, but when I wrap it in the [raw][/raw] [raw] just shows up as text on my page

I am also having this same issue.
Add more attendees button not working.
Firebug says I have a Jquery error, but I am not exactly sure how to resolve this.
I tried wrapping the Event-Registration short code with [raw][/raw], but nothing changed.
Here is the link to the page with the event in question:
http://staytarrantcounty.com/events/event-registration/?ee=8

Here is a portion of the Firebug error:

SyntaxError: unterminated string literal
[Break On This Error]
…div#additional_attendee_’ + attendee_num;function markup(attendee_num) {return
?ee=8 (line 473, col 198)

Thanks!
Christian

It looks like you have the ticket selector/no attendee info required option set, so the add more attendee toggle is not on that page.

I took a look at the page source, and jQuery is being loaded twice, which will usually cause JavaScript issues. It would be best to remove the old version of jQuery that the theme has probably hardcoded in. Here is more information on how to include jQuery into a theme:
