MER, removing 'register'

Hi there. I have two problems and I really need help here. I cannot input anything into the ‘event description’ I am using Foocamp from themeforest and it’s probably the theme – I can’t change from this as too much work has gone into the site and I need it up urgently. Here’s the real issue though: I don’t want ‘register’ button under registration as it doesn’t give multiple ticket options, I only want ‘view cart’ as this gives me what I need. Perhaps I need to add ‘ESPRESSO_CART_LINK’ into the Event description, however I can’t – I need an answer on this please urgently?

Hi Craig,

You can apply a setting in the events to remove the registration form (including the button) for when using MER but that would leave you without anything at all.

The editor not working is likely due to Foocamp adding its own custom shortcode/MCE buttons as mentioned, I would try Josh’s comparability plugin first and see if that works in restoring the editor:

Thanks Tony, that worked. If I can please check something else with you… After clicking ‘register’ and landing on the registration page it says the event title, an amount of one of the tickets, the date, View Details and View Cart. Firstly, can I have the full description on that first page with venue and no ticket price (there are 4 different tickets), secondly, if the full description is showing then can I remove View Details?

No Problem.

can I have the full description on that first page with venue and no ticket price

Yes if you go to Event Espresso -> Template Settings.

Set ‘Display short descriptions in the event listings?’ to Yes
Set ‘Display addresses in the event listings?’ to Yes

Then update the settings.

no ticket price (there are 4 different tickets)

Easiest way to remove the price is just to hide it with CSS:

.event-list-display .event_price {
display: none;
}

secondly, if the full description is showing then can I remove View Details?

There’s a couple of options now, Option 1 is Edit the template files, Option 2 is hide it with CSS and display the Add to Cart link in the Description, which you already have.

Personally I would go with Option 2 in this case. Again some CSS:

.event-list-display .register-link-footer {
display: none;
}

Will remove BOTH ‘View Details’ and also ‘Add To Cart’ from the event list.

Reason I said use this method, you already have a ‘Register’ (MER Cart link) in the event description, which will now be visible. Maybe more it stand out a little more as it will now be the only way to Register/Add the event to cart?

If this does not work for you let me know.
