Hi Matt,

The templates files can be found here:

wp-content/plugins/event-espresso/templates

They should be copied here:

wp-content/uploads/templates/

What changes are you trying to make?

Hi Matt,

The above info that Lorenzo gave you applies to EE3.

In Event Espresso 4 the template that builds the registration form for the front-end of the site is event-espresso-core-reg/modules/single_page_checkout/templates/registration_page_attendee_information.template.php

Thanks Josh! to answer lorenzo’s question since we have multiple events using the same question groups we dont want to stylize a specific form and then have to apply the same updates to the next form, as eventually our client will take over the site and be making these events as needed.

Here is the comp of what I am trying to do, http://tinypic.com/r/246lu2p/8
specifically the where they have the status question and the form fields to the right, is what we are trying to accomplish.

Basically all of our events (4 currently) will be using those same exact question groups. All future events will use these question groups as well, so those will need this styling.

You can see our current form page:

Hi Matt,

Have you tried using CSS to change the layout of the forms?

Hi Josh,

The issue being is it appears when each form is generated per event its generated programatically regardless of us using the same question groups. The other thing I noticed which is weird is if you look at our questions http://semcme.tmvgroup.com.php53-14.ord1-1.websitetestlink.com/event-registration/?ee=_register you will notice the status question which is a single choice, the answers are horizontal whereas the meal preference which is also a single choice question the answers are showing vertically.

If you have any tips for making our status section look like the comp (answers displaying vertically/ with the blue box and 4 columns that would be greatly appreciated. I just want to be able to apply this and have it effect all the events that use the same question groups, if that makes sense.

if the link to our site doesnt work for you. go here and just put a quantity in and click the button for one of our events. http://semcme.tmvgroup.com.php53-14.ord1-1.websitetestlink.com/semcme-courses/

Hi Matt,

I’m unsure why it’s an issue that the reg forms are programmatically generated. Can you explain?

I looked at the Meal Preference single choice. The reason that your custom CSS isn’t applying to them is because the first one (Standard Fare) has the class small-lbl. You can make those snap into play by adding the small-lbl class to what you already have starting on line 1090 of the theme’s style.css like this:

#single-page-checkout li.tiny-lbl,
#single-page-checkout li.small-lbl {
float: left;
clear: none;
display: block !important;
width: auto !important;
margin-right: 5px;
padding: 0 5px 0 0 !important;
}
