I’m trying to build a profile page on which an attendee can view and edit his profile, and view for which events he registered. So I created a new page and added these shortcodes to it:
[ESPRESSO_EDIT_PROFILE]
[ESPRESSO_MY_EVENTS]
But instead of the output, I just see the shortcodes…
The [ESPRESSO_MY_EVENTS] shortcode is from the EE4 User Integration Add-on, looking at your account you don’t appear to have purchased that add-on so the above shortcode won’t work for you.
Also as you didn’t have that add=on active enabled when the registrations were made, they will not show on the users account until they next register on the event whilst logged in (that links the EE contact to the users WP profile which also tells the add-on which registrations it should be pulling in).
[ESPRESSO_EDIT_PROFILE] is from the EE3 version of that add-on, we don’t have that shortcode for the EE4 version as the add-on and account profiles etc work differently in EE4 to how they did in EE3.
No, it links the EE contact create by EE to the WP User profile and the pulls the details from the WP user profile into the registration form and syncs those, so if edits are made to the first name, last name or email address during the registration it will update those on the EE contact and WP user account.
So you could use a members type plugin to create profile page to edit their user account.
Next question 😉 I want to have a page with all attendees shown per event. However, when I use the [ESPRESSO_EVENT_ATTENDEES] it shows “no attendees yet”, even though there are future events with attendees. When I use [ESPRESSO_EVENT_ATTENDEES event_id=your_event_id], that works fine…
The reason is because if you do not specify an event with [ESPRESSO_EVENT_ATTENDEES], it will try to fall back to the first event it can find. So you’ll need to specify an event ID for each event you want to show an attendee list for.
