When viewing my site on a mobile device, I’m not able to view the events. I currently have the events set to show on a “Calendar Table”. The Headings show but nothing else. Please advise.

Hi,

A couple questions:

– Which page are you trying to view specifically? Is that a standard WordPress page or are you using a custom(ized) template?
– What type of mobile device are you using (Android/iOS), OS version and which browser?

Hi
1. I’m viewing the home page, however is a static page that is set to show on the home page.
2. I’m not using a customized template
3. Type of mobile device is Android Galaxy S3. I didn’t locate a browser type. When I view the internet I click on “Internet”.

Hope this helps.

Are you using any Event Espresso shortcodes on the page? Can you give us a link to your home page or give us screenshots of your home page? It’s going to be impossible to help unless we can see what you see.

Yes, the shortcode that I am using is: [EVENT_CUSTOM_VIEW template_name=”calendar-table” show_featured=true change_title=”Event Information”]

This is how it looks on a computer: http://bit.ly/NmD9fS

I just logged off of my website and was not able to view the event by computer anymore. I think the problem is that I have to be logged in to view any events in the Calendar Table view . How would I change this so that anyone can view the event without logging in?

Hi,

Yes that looks exactly like the problem.

There are two things to check:

1) In the event itself, make sure the event option Member only event? is set to No.

2) In the Member Settings section, make sure the Require login for all events? option is set to No.


MsBecca

Thank you! The Member Settings was set to “Yes” and I changed it to “No”. It is working now.

Another question: How do I make the event viewable prior to logging in but require the user to login in prior to registering for the event. If the Member only event is set to No and the Member Settings section, Require login for all events is set to No, the member is not required to log in.

Hi,

The only way would be to modify a template.

Start by copying over the registration_page.php and registration_page_display.php from event-espresso/templates over to wp-content/uploads/templates/

Then replace the enitre contents of the registration_page.php with the code found here https://gist.github.com/Apina/2b513fff0d801b9c98e5 (this is based on EE 3.1.36.4)

This will show the event description, time, price etc but block the registration form unless logged in.

This is only a basic setup and is not supported (i.e. will not be updated), it’s merely to give you an idea on how to do it.

Hi, I’m a little confused. If a user doesn’t log in does their information still get saved to “My Events” if they purchase a ticket. If so, how would they log in to see their information if they weren’t required to log in when purchasing a ticket? Also is this a feature that will be added in the future, where the user can view an event without logging in and then before adding to cart be required to log in? Thanks.

No the registration will not be saved to My Events.

That is basically what the modification Dean provided does. Displays almost all the same information that you would generally see when logged in, but you can not register until you are logged in.

This has been requested previously so I will add your vote to our feature request list for future versions of Event Espresso 🙂

Thanks. It would be greatly appreciated if this feature is added. I thought it was already included. But now I realize I was doing everything logged in so I didn’t realize that this feature was not built in.

I copied the registration_page.php and registration_page_display.php from event-espresso/templates to wp-content/uploads/templates and replaced the contents per the instructions but when I tested the site, I’m still not able to view the events unless logged in. Are there any other solutions?

Can you provide a link to the page in question and I can take a look.

Hi MsBecca,

There is a typo in Deans reply regarding the directory structure.

wp-content/uploads/templates/

Should be

wp-content/uploads/espresso/templates/

Apologies for any confusion.

Hello, I tried the most recent suggestion but it still isn’t working as it should. It works for the “single event” page (shows everything but the image) but not on the Calendar View Template. A user is still required to log in to see this portion. As far as the image on the single event page, is there a way to make that viewable also without logging in?

Hi I found a work around by using [EVENT_CUSTOM_VIEW] instead.

1. The table appears in the mobile view with no problems however when I go to the “add to cart” page some of the details are not visible, they fall off on the right side of the screen. How can I get the entire cart to show on the screen?
2. I want the results to show the city and state instead of the venue – I was able to change the Venue heading to “City, State” in the wp-content/plugins/espresso-custom-templates/templates/events-table/index.php file, however how do I change the results to show the city, state instead of Venue. Thanks.

1. You will need to target the table using CSS Media Queries in your themes CSS file.

2. In that same file, you will need to find $event->venue_name and change it to $event->venue_city . ", " $event->venue_state

Does that help?
