Only subscribers can book events

On my site (which runs EE and Wishlist member), only logged-in subscribers can book an event. When I (an admin) try to book an event I am redirected back to the homepage with a hastag #checkout behind the URL. If I switch to a subscriber, I have no issues. Please help.

Hi there,

A couple questions:

– What are your default settings for the WP User Integration with respect to the login requirements?
– What are the event-specific settings for the WP User Integration with respect to login requirements?
– What capability are you requiring to register for an event (if any)?

Garth:

What are your default settings for the WP User Integration with respect to the login requirements? Non-logged in users can access the events by default. Some events are protected and some are not.

– What are the event-specific settings for the WP User Integration with respect to login requirements? Users are required to be logged in and of a certain membership level in order to access the event. When a subscriber at that level registers – it works. When an admin at that level tries to register, I get kicked back to the homepage with #checkout at the end of the URL.

– What capability are you requiring to register for an event (if any)? Not a capability, but rather access to a membership level (using Wishlist member.

Also, I DO see that when I click register the network tab is trying to send a POST request to “https://m.stripe.com/6” then the connection gets cut. There’s no error like a 400 or 500 response. It’s strange.

Hi there,

This sounds like an issue caused by Wishlist rather than Event Espresso.

Event Espresso does not ‘integrate’ with any membership plugins per se, what the WP user integration add-on does is check for specific capabilities you set on the ticket (that’s why Garth is asking about capabilities).

It sounds like WishList is hooking into the page and looking for a specific membership level, then redirecting the request based on the level, but where I have no idea as I’ve not seen the code for Wishlist.

Is the checkout page or Admin set to be admin?

Tony –

The checkout page was not protected at all. However, on your suggestion I looked deeper into Wishlist to see if there was something I was missing. There were some old settings still being applied for content protection. I believe it was a plugin upgrade that caused the error. It’s all fixed now!

Thank you for the help.

Ah, great. I’m glad you found the cause 🙂
