Recurring Events/Just want to show events available for registration.

Hey guys, I just want to show events available for registration as a drop down. Right now I have a “Register Now” clickable AND a list of all events, regardless of being open or not..

There have been a few updates since I last adjusted, so perhaps I am missing something. Any ideas??

Thanks, Alastair

Hi Alastair,

Did you add this CSS to your stylesheet?

.subpage_excerpt .date_picker{
display: none;
}

Great! That worked.. Thank you so much!
Now, how do I only show those events that are “Open” in the drop down list?

Thanks again,
Alastair

@Alistair, Which template are you using to get the drop down date picker, or is this custom html?

@peter the dropdown date selection is from the the Recurring Events add on, it can be found in the directory espresso-recurring/recurring-events-templates

Copy the event_list.php and event_list_display.php to your wp-content/uploads/espresso/templates/ directory and add the css noted above (also found in the add-to.css file) to your themes style.css or use a plugin like My Custom CSS.

Dean, thank you for this. I am a novice, so it will take me a little time to decipher.

Question, am I working through the WordPress files through my dashboard, or going to my File Manager on my host?

Very Novice question, and my apologies.. A little more step by step would help..
Thanks so much!

Peter, I’m running Pagelines as a template
Best,

Alastair

@Alastair,

Hey no problem. For this you will need to use your File Manager or FTP.

In the file manager navigate to

wp-content/plugins/espresso-recurring/recurring-event-templates

In that directory are four files. You will need to copy the event_list.php and event_list_display.php (or download them) and download or open the add-to.css file. The fourth file is a readme.txt with instructions which you can download if you wish.

The event_list.php and event_list_display.php files need to be copied to

wp-content/uploads/espresso/templates

The add-to.css contains a small amount of CSS code which needs to be copied and added to your themes style.css (this is available in WordPress via Appearance > Editor and is normally the first file loaded) or via a plugin like My Custom CSS (usually the better option as when your theme is updated any css changes will be deleted).

And that’s it. Once the files are in the right place and the CSS is copied over the plugin will see the new templates and use them.
