A few issues: I am trying to follow these instructions Dean gave someone in order to change our “View Cart”Link to be an image… I replaced the fake image with my image url but it shows nothing but an upright line on the page and I cannot seem to get firebug to help me figure out where my image is if it is even there anywhere… In addition, I add the following custom shortcode below on all my events individually (which is tedious honestly) for a register button. When I add the code listed in the link above for the View Cart Button, it removes that link on my event.
I also need to create a button or image for the “REFRESH” link as well but unsure of where to do this at. Additionally, I need to add some wording on the PayPal button area so that users know that if they don’t have paypal, they will still be able to checkout. Our feedback has shown these areas to be confusing to MOST all users. I really just need this to be easier… Will 4.0 make all of this easier if I just wait on it? Can anyone help me now? I am in desperate need at this point and really tired of fooling with it all. Honestly, I’m at the brink of paying for something like EventBrite just to make this easier because I’m not a programmer and need to spend my time elsewhere… I just need some help and details about what 4.0 is going to do different than what we have now… Will 4.0 be easier for those of us to setup (and make our events look pretty and not generic looking) who aren’t programmers ? PLEASE!!!!!!! |

Hey Audrea, <?php _e( 'Refresh Total', 'event_espresso' ); ?> with the image tag to display your button image. (http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_images.asp) |

I did the update (which I hadn’t noticed needing done – so thanks) but it did not correct the problem. When I add the css code suggested in the link above which is:

Hi Audrey, I am sorry if the code I provided didnt work. What I have noted down is the following .ee_view_cart {
display: block;
text-indent: -9999px;
background-image: url(http://www.ee-3131.dev/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/thumb-up.gif);
height: 64px;
width: 64px;
}
.ee_add_item_to_cart {
display: block;
text-indent: -9999px;
background-image: url(http://www.ee-3131.dev/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/shopping-cart.gif);
height: 64px;
width: 64px;
}
Notice that there is no a before the classes? Also note that the height and the widths need to match the image heights and widths. This will add an image for add to cart and another for view cart.
4.0 will be a lot different. In many ways it will be easier to use. Will it be easier to modify? Probably not no. Modification of any plugin or theme beyond the design/structure provided by the developers does require web design coding knowledge. Most if not all of Event Espresso’s design comes via two sources, the themes css or via Themeroller styles if it is turned on. Themeroller allows you to modify the style of the events using colour pickers etc to making it quite easy to do. http://jqueryui.com/themeroller/ It just requires copying over some files, here is a guide for it https://eventespresso.com/wiki/how-to-create-custom-themeroller-styles/ If you would prefer to look for a developer we do have a list of recommended developers here, https://eventespresso.com/developers/event-espresso-pros/ I hope that helps, and we are always available in the forums for support issues. |
