hi there,
i’ve been checking the documentation but still cannot figure out something..
i’d like people who register to an even to be able to automatically become website subscribers so next time they come to the website and try to purchase the ticket they don’t have to fill in all their details. ideally, they could log in using facebook as well.
is that possible? if so, how could i achieve that?
i basically want to make it as easy as possible for users so they don’t have to register twice (event + website).
that seems to be a pretty standard with event websites that they can register to an event and their data is being stored on the site, so next time they go to the site they can just log in while registering for an event and purchase a ticket..
thanks,
Adam

Hi Adam,
Event Espresso 3 does not do this on its own but you can do this by using some code like this:

It can be added to your child theme’s functions.php file or a site specific plugin:

thanks Lorenzo, that seems to work.
however:
1. once i register for an event as a user, i have age question and it doesn’t add this data to the wp-user. is closer integration between eventespress and wp-user possible?
2. i register, get an email, sign in and go to the admin panel as a subscriber, then go to ‘my events’ and there’s nothing there although i’m added as an attendee for that particular event
3. is there a way to do it, so subscribers would log in to the backend but could log in to the site and view their own events in the front-end only? i’d like to disallow going to backend for subscribers.
thanks,
Adam

i’ve found shortcodes:
[ESPRESSO_MY_EVENTS]
[ESPRESSO_EDIT_PROFILE]
i’ve created a page /profile and used [ESPRESSO_EDIT_PROFILE].
however, when i go to this page and log in, it redirects me to the home page.
any idea how to change that?
i’d still like to disable backend for subscribers and reply to point 1 above would be much appreciated!
thanks,
Adam

Hi Adam,
Any additional integration will require custom coding. We have some Event Espresso professionals that can help you with this:
https://eventespresso.com/developers/
Are you running the latest software for EE3 and what is the current status for the test attendee in the Attendee Record screen in the WordPress admin?
For the login, I would setup a plugin like Peter’s Login Redirect. This will let you route certain user roles such as subscribers to a page of your choice after they login.
