Hello, I got 4.2 up and running and php has been updated to the latest version. My registration page looks like this: http://www.specialneedsexpos.com/event-registration/?ee=_register&step=attendee_information Please tell me why the formatting is messed up. Thanks |
Hello, Could I have you double-check your shortcodes for your critical pages? These can be found in WP-admin –> Event Espresso –> General settings –> Critical Pages. We are looking for a shortcode and page status of OK. Also, what shortcode is on this page: http://www.specialneedsexpos.com/event-registration/ — |

Lorenzo, It appears to be working now, and I didn’t do anything….it seems sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn’t. I do see the shortcode status of OK. Also, on our payment gateway page the paypal and cheque logos are showing up with an X in the image. Also My events page is showing the time in European format….it also shows the wrong date of the event in the upper right hand corner. One last thing, how do I get the title of the page to change from Attendee registration in step one to Exhibitor registration? |
|
BTW…this is the shortcode on that page : [ESPRESSO_CHECKOUT] |
Hello, It should always load correctly. Are you using or were you recently using any minify / caching plugins or are there any security plugins running? — |

I am running ReCaptcha |
Its now loading correctly. It looks like you are migrating over to Event Espresso 4 as some of the buttons have event registration links for version 3. I do see a date in the top right corner of your single events page but these are from your theme, not event Espresso: http://cl.ly/image/181g331u0P3W Its showing the date the event was published. The following CSS will hide it only on single event pages: .single-espresso_events .postmeta {display:none} I did not see any event dates on the single event page that appears in European time. Do you have a link where I can see this? For changing the phrase, install quick localization plugin: https://eventespresso.com/wiki/how-to-change-wording-with-poedit/#plugins Then set old to: Attendee — |

Lorenzo, I don’t see how the date is part of the theme, as the page is published by creating a single event in eventespresso. I found how to change date format and fixed that. As far as the quick localization plugin, if I change the string as you suggest then all my pages will go to exhibitor registration. I want the attendee registrtation to say just that, and the exhibitor registration page to say that. Can this be done? |
Hello, That date in the corner isn’t a feature of Event Espresso. Event Espresso is using your single.php theme template file for single event pages. This is also used for blog posts. You can hide that date using the CSS that I shared. Try making the variables more specific: Set old to: Attendee Registration — |

Lorenzo, I don’t know if I am missing something here: I have two types of registrations, Attendee and exhibitor. I need a registration page for each and they both say attendee registration. So If I put that into the plugin you mentioned, it will make the correction on all pages. I Need one page to say attendee registration for step 1 and the other to say exhibitor. Thanks |
Thanks for clarifying. Unfortunately, you can only have one registration page as this time. — |

Thanks for letting me now Lorenzo, what about just making the wording in Step one more generic: Right now Step 1 of registration says Attendee Information. What if I want that to say “Event Registration” Can we do that? |
Using the quick localization plugin: Set old to: Attendee Registration Then save changes. – |
|
|
Lorenzo, I have done that and it still does not work. It still says attendee registration. |
|
Hi, Due to the dynamic nature of some of the strings, you will need to use a slightly different string. To change Step 1 – Attendee Information, in the Quick Localisation plugin: Set the old to: %s Attendee Information the %s are important as that contains the “Step 1 -” bit. If you want remove that bit, remove the %s from the New section. |
|
Thank you. That fixed the majority of it. under Steps 1 still says attendee information but underneath where it says step 1, that did change to what I needed. |
Hi, Try deactivating quick localization and adding this to your theme’s functions.php file or a custom plugin: function text_override_event_registration_a($phrase) { $post = get_the_id(); if ($post == 5 ) { $phrase = str_replace('Attendee Information', 'Event Registration', $phrase); return $phrase; } else { return $phrase; } } add_filter('the_content', 'text_override_event_registration_a', 200); function text_override_event_registration_b($phrase) { $post = get_the_id(); if ($post == 5 ) { $phrase = str_replace('Attendee', 'Event Registration', $phrase); return $phrase; } else { return $phrase; } } add_filter('the_content', 'text_override_event_registration_b', 200); function text_override_event_registration_c($phrase) { $post = get_the_id(); if ($post == 5 ) { $phrase = str_replace(' Information', '', $phrase); return $phrase; } else { return $phrase; } } add_filter('the_content', 'text_override_event_registration_c', 200); Be sure to update the post id of 5 to your post id for your registration page. It should look like this afterwards: http://cl.ly/image/2y300n182743 — |
