Hi there,

You’ll need to install the WP user integration add-on:

https://eventespresso.com/wiki/wp-user-integration/

Then create a page and add the [ESPRESSO_MY_EVENTS] shortcode to it

Note – your users wont see their registrations on that page until AFTER they have made a registration on the site with that add-on enabled.

When they register will all events pertaining to their email showup?

Sort of.

The My Events section pulls in all the registrations related to a WP User’s EE contact. All EE Registrations create an ‘EE Contact’ with the first name, last name and email address used during the registration process (this happens even without the WP user integration add-on), what the WP user integration does, is link your WP user account to your EE Contact during the registration process.

The ‘My Events’ section then says (in English), ‘Hey! This WP User’s EE Contact ID is 111, so pull the registrations linked to Contact 111 and display them’.

But, if you’ve only just installed the add-on, the WP user account doesn’t know what EE contact it is linked to yet, so the above query can’t work at that point. The relationship between the 2 will happen the next time the user registers onto an event, the WP user -> EE Contact ID relationship then mans the above My Events section query can work.

One the above has happened with the add-on enabled, any registrations linked to that same contact will show for that user.

I assume you have users that have registered onto multiple events using the same Fist Name, Last Name and Email? I can walk thought one of those to see this in the admin id that’ll help show what is happening?

When someone tries to register, it won’t accept the new signup.

What happened at this point, did it show an error?

We also have a membership program that we use for memberships and use a different plugin for that. Could this be causing issues?

Possibly, it depends what was happening above.

Which membership plugin?

Is there an event I can register onto to view the issues you were having?

Ok… so this:

When I tryn to register it takes me to a login screen and I get the following error: You cannot register with this form. Please use the registration page found on the website instead.

Isn’t connected to Event Espresso as such.

What is happening there is EE is defaulting to use the default WordPress registration page. Looks like MemberPress is blocking registrations on that site and everyone needs to go through registration by purchasing one of these 2 options:

Is that correct?

Or is there another page used specific for member registrations without making a purchase?

Ok, so in that case go to Event Espresso -> Registration Form -> User Integration Settings (tab at the top)

Set the ‘Registration Page URL (if different from default WordPress Registration)’ field to the above page:

https://thebespokemarkets.com/membership-program/

That way the register link will direct the user there and they can purchase a membership. I’m guessing you’ll also want to change the wording of the message shown with that link? If so if you let me know what you’d prefer the text was I’ll put together a snippet to do it for you.
