Hi!
With the creation of an event there is the option to enter an off-site registration link URL. Now when the user clicks this event he will leave my site. I would like to have the off-site registration page opened in a blank screen.
Should be easy enough but I can’t figure out where to do this…
Furthermore, I’m very pleased with your plugin. Keep up the good work!

Hi Dennis,
Oddly enough this isn’t a setting.
Currently the only way to do it is to make a file edit.
Start by copying the following files
/wp-content/plugins/event-espresso/templates/event_list_display.php
/wp-content/plugins/event-espresso/templates/event_list.php
over to
/wp-content/uploads/espresso/templates
Then edit
/wp-content/uploads/espresso/templates/event_list_display.php
Around line 44 it should show this code
Replace it with this code
Now what will happen is events with an external URL will use a new tab and ones that aren’t will just open as normal.
Hope that helps!

Hi Dean,
Thanks for looking into it. The problem however still occurs! When clicking the event from the Upcoming Events widget or from the Events Calendar I get instantly redirected from my website to the off-site URL.
Should the code be used in a different place?

Ahhh I see, yes those are different parts of the plugin.
Well the widget can be changed. Similar to the above, copy over the widget.php file
edit: changed to pastebin as our code highlighter is being weird

The calendar is a different matter. The changes wont survive an update and can only affect the tooltip not the blob on the calendar.
/wp-content/plugins/espresso-calendar/espresso-calendar.php
change the entire contents to the content here (it’s easier than trying to explain the changes) – http://pastebin.com/z7j9mzkb

Thanks again. The calendar works fine now! No problem that the changes won’t survive an update.
The Upcoming Events widget had no effect however…
I copied the wp-content/plugins/event-espresso/templates/widget.php to wp-content/uploads/espresso/templates/widget.php and replaced the code as you suggested. I also tried to edit the file directly but it didn’t matter.
I’m using Event Espresso version 3.1.36.5.P

Sorry, that was a typo on my part. I have updated the pastebin, but basically the
if($externalURL != '' )
bit should read
if($event->externalURL != '' )

That did the trick. Works like a charm!
Thank you Dean!
