Create a Waiting List for Your Event

Friday, June 1st, 2012

Hello there! This guide applies to Event Espresso 3 only. Need wait lists for Event Espresso 4? Check out the Wait List Manager for Event Espresso 4.

If your events are popular, or if you are restricted on the number of people you can have, you may find that you need to have a waiting list. This means that if your event is full, people can add themselves to a waiting list. If someone drops out of your event then the person on the waiting list can be added to the list of attendees.

To create a waiting list you need to create another event. This will be marked as a waiting list and then assigned to the primary event. It’s a bit like a bucket for collecting all of the people who couldn’t make it in the the main event.

Let’s look at an example of a waiting list for an event called “Intense Yoga.” The class is restricted to 5 people and it’s very popular so I want to create a waiting list so I can capture the details of any potential attendees.

1. Create Your Event

To start off, you’ll need to create your main event. If you’re unfamiliar with how to create an event, you should check out this tutorial on setting up an event with Event Espresso or read through the full Getting Started guide.

Make sure that your event has an attendee limit in place. This is set in the Event Options widget of the event editor.

2. Create a Waiting List Event

Now it’s time to create a waiting list event. Anyone who wants to sign up for your event but is unable to will be able to add their name to your list. This lets them register their interest so that you can email them if a place becomes available.

Create an event as you normally would by navigating to Event Espresso > Events > Add New.

give your waiting list event a name

Give your event a name – “Intense Yoga Waiting List”, for example.

The most important thing that you must do here is set the Event Status to “Waitlist”. This will let you set it up as a waiting list for another event. You can find the Event Status dropdown under Event Options.

assign the event as a waitlist

It’s worth adding a custom email to this waiting list, to thank the person for signing up and assuring them that you’ll let them know if a space becomes available. For help creating a custom email check out this tutorial.

When you’re ready click “Submit New Event.”

3. Assign Waiting List to Your Original Event

Now you can assign this waiting list to an event. Navigate to Event Espresso > Events and click the Edit button underneath the event you wish to add a waitlist to.

click the edit link to edit the event

Under the Event Options on the right hand side, make sure that the Assign a Waitlist Event? option is set to Yes.

Set Assign a Waitlist to Yes

Then set the Overflow event so it has the correct overflow event set from the dropdown list.

Select your waiting list from the overflow event dropdown

Click Update Event.

4. Exclude the Waiting List Event From Your Main Listings

To show a list of events without their waiting lists, you need to use the [EVENT_LIST] shortcode. There is no parameter for excluding events from the [ESPRESSO_EVENTS] shortcode. Therefore, the best way to approach this is to create a front-facing page for your events using the [EVENT_LIST] shortcode and then hide the main registration page (in step 4).

Create a new page and give it a name. You need to include the following shortcode in it:

[EVENT_LIST show_secondary=false]

This will create a list of your events without any waiting lists showing.

insert the Event_List shortcode

Publish the page.

5. Hide the Main Registration Page from Your Navigation Menu

Now that you are using EVENT_LIST to display your list of events, you should hide the main registration page.

If you are using a WordPress 3+ Theme you will be able to do this using the built-in menu functionality.

Navigate to Appearance > Menu

Make sure your page with the [EVENT_LIST] shortcode is on the navigation. And make sure that the page with the [ESPRESSO_EVENTS] shortcode is excluded.

remove the main registration page from your menu and include the events list instead

Now when your event is full the link for the waiting list will be displayed.

Original Event showing as full with link to waiting list

Potential attendees can sign up for the waiting list, and if someone drops out of the original class you can send them an email asking them if they wish to sign up.

Upgrading Event Espresso from 3.0.19.x or Lower

Friday, June 1st, 2012

There are two things to check/do before upgrading from 3.0.19.x to a higher version of Event Espresso 3:

1. Back up your database. There are a lot of plugins that can do this. We recommend WP DB Backup.  Having a backup of the database means you can go back to the way your site was before if something goes awry. This is also a good basic practice to follow when updating your website plugins, themes, or making change to the operating system(s) of your website. Get in the habit of backing up your website.

2. Make sure you do not have any currently active events. The issues we have had reported from earlier versions of Event Espresso have all been surrounding attendee data and payment information. We have not been able to reproduce the problems on our test servers, but we are handling and calling some data differently in the newer versions of the plugin, so the problems that were reported were around those areas. But our recommendation is still the same. Schedule time to update your plugins when your events are not actively accepting registrations.

If you have any questions or problems, then please create a support post in our support forums so we can help you.

We recommend migrating to Event Espresso 4 when the time is right for you. If you have an active support license, you will have access to the EE3 plugins that will help you upgrade to a more recent version of Event Espresso, which will also allow you to upgrade to Event Espresso 4.

Updating Event Espresso

Friday, June 1st, 2012

The general procedure for updating Event Espresso via one click updates

Read the Change Log to familiarise yourself with the updated features.

Backup your database.

Backup your uploads/espresso folder if it contains any files.

Rename your uploads/espresso folder to stop any possible conflicts.

Modified files
If you have modified any of the templates, it is advisable to compare the original default templates from your version of Event Espresso, with the default templates of the new version. That way you can pinpoint any changes and apply those changes to your customized files.

Login to your WordPress dashboard and go to Plugins > Installed Plugins

Find the Event Espresso plugin and you will see a bar advising of the update, click Update Now.

Once the plugin has been updated, check the Event Espresso General and Payment settings to make sure everything is in order, and verify that the rest of the plugin is working on your site correctly.

Manual update instructions

If your version of Event Espresso does not have the automatic update feature, or you are running WordPress Multisite, please follow this procedure:
Download the latest version from your Event Espresso account page

Safari may automatically unzip the file after downloading. If the file does unzip automatically, you can right click it and click “Compress…”. To prevent Safari from automatically unzipping files, go to Safari->Preferences->General and Uncheck “Open Safe Files After Downloading”.

Backing up the WordPress database is recommended

Go to the Plugins page of your WordPress admin

Deactivate and delete the old version of Event Espresso. If you’re updating from an older version, it’s recommended to make a backup of the old version of Event Espresso and the add on plugins before deleting, in case you need to roll back for any reason.

Click the “Add New” link at the top of the Plugins page

Click Upload

Click Choose File

Select the .zip file that you have just downloaded

Click the Install Now button

Check the Payment Settings. If you have previously activated and then deactivated any of the payment options, these may be active with this update. Simply deactivate the payment option you are no longer offering.
Navigate to Event Espresso>Template Settings>Developer and check to see if there are template files located in wp-content/uploads/espresso/templates.

If there are no templates there, move on to the next step.

Modified files
If you have modified any of the templates, it is advisable to compare the original default templates rom your version of Event Espresso, with the default templates of the new version. That way you can pinpoint any changes and apply those changes to your customized files.
Important:
If you are updating from 3.1.15.P or lower, any changes made to gateway files will need to be redone into the new gateway files. Be sure to check wp-content/uploads/espresso/gateways for older modified gateway files before updating. These will need to be updated. If you offer Authorize.net SIM as a payment method, check your relay response URL setting in the Authorize.net account, it will need to be updated to the response URL as shown on the payment settings screen.

Add on Plugins

Check the version numbers of installed add-ons and update these as needed. If you leave older add ons, it can cause conflicts, so make sure you update all the add on plugins you are using.

Finish Up

Verify that everything is working correctly. If you have any questions or find a bug, please create a new topic in our forums

The general procedure for migrating from Event Espresso 3 to Event Espresso 4

Important:

Please read this article first:

https://eventespresso.com/2014/02/event-espresso-4-beta-officially-released/

Very, Very Important:

If you currently use Event Espresso 3’s promo code feature, wait lists, staff manager, or Event Espresso 3’s add-ons, please see this special note that was written just for you

Before you start a migration, backing up the WordPress database is recommended to allow for reverting to EE3 in case you want to stay with EE3 for the time being. Please note that if you plan on migrating the EE3 data you will need to be sure to have the latest version of Event Espresso 3 up to date before hand.

Step by step instructions on how to deactivate EE3 and install Event Espresso 4

Download EE4 latest version from your user profile page

  1. Go to the Plugins page of your WordPress admin
  2. Deactivate Event Espresso 3 and its add-ons
  3. Click the “Add New” link at the top of the Plugins page
  4. Click Upload
  5. Click Choose File
  6. Select the .zip file that you have just downloaded
  7. Click the Install Now button
  8. Activate
  9. A message will display that tells you that Event Espresso is in Maintenance mode. From there it will walk you through the steps to migrate the data from EE3 if you choose to migrate the data or let you start fresh with new data.

Post migration notes

  • Once the migration is finished, any upcoming events will display as a list on http://yoursite.com/events as a custom post type archive. You can change the ‘events’ slug to something else by following this guide.
  • If you used EE3’s event list shortcodes or event category list shortcodes on pages or posts, these will need to be manually updated. Please see the Event Espresso 4 shortcode documentation for more info.
  • You can revert back to Event Espresso 3 by deactivating Event Espresso 4, then restoring to the database backup that was made before Event Espresso 4 was activated.

Answers Shortcode

Friday, June 1st, 2012

One of the new features that is included in Event Espresso 3.1 is the EE_ANSWER shortcode. This shortcode makes it possible to grab answers to custom questions without writing your own custom database queries. It’s been developed to work with the [LISTATTENDEES] shortcode to create customized attendee lists.

Unlike many of the of the other shortcodes that ship with Event Espresso, this one is a bit different in that it’s designed primary to go into a display template. So in order to take advantage of this new feature, a little familiarity with a code editor and an FTP client is required.

First you’ll need a custom question to plug this into. Navigate to the manage questions screen and go to edit the custom question you’d like to include the answer to in the attendee list. Take note of the ID in the URL. This is how the answer will be identified in the next step.

Copy the attendee_list.php template file from the Event Espresso plugin’s /template directory over to /wp-content/uploads/espresso/templates. Open this file in your text editor of choice. Near the bottom of this template, you’ll find a block of PHP code that looks something like this:

<?php 
	$a_sql = "SELECT * FROM " . EVENTS_ATTENDEE_TABLE . " WHERE event_id='" . $event_id . "'";
	$a_sql .= $paid_only == 'true'? " AND (payment_status='Completed' OR payment_status='Pending') ":'';
	$a_sql .= $sort;
	//echo $a_sql;
	$attendees = $wpdb--->get_results($a_sql);
	foreach ($attendees as $attendee){
		$id = $attendee-&gt;id;
		$lname = $attendee-&gt;lname;
		$fname = $attendee-&gt;fname;
		$city = $attendee-&gt;city;
		$state = $attendee-&gt;state;
		$country = $attendee-&gt;state;
		$email = $attendee-&gt;email;
		$gravatar = $show_gravatar == 'true'? get_avatar( $email, $size = '100', $default = 'http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/' ) : '';
		$city_state = $city != '' || $state != '' ? '
' . ($city != '' ? $city :'') . ($state != '' ? ', ' . $state :' ') :'';

	//These are example variables to show answers to questions
	$custom_question_1 = '
'.do_shortcode('[EE_ANSWER q="15" a="'.$id.'"]');
        //$custom_question_2 = '
//'.do_shortcode('[EE_ANSWER q="13" a="'.$id.'"]');
?>

Note where we’ve uncommented out one of the examples of the EE_ANSWER shortcodes. Also note that the question ID has been placed between double quotes for the q parameter. The final step is to add the newly created custom question variable to the markup. In this example, we’ll add it near the end of the echo statement that’s already there:

<div class="espresso_attendee"><?php echo $gravatar ?><?php echo '<p><strong>' . stripslashes_deep($fname . ' ' . $lname) . '</strong><br />' . ($city != '' ? $city :'') . ($state != '' ? ', ' . $state :' ') . ($custom_question_1 != '' ? $custom_question_1 :'') . '</p>'; ?> </div>

Then add the [LISTATTENDEES] shortcode to page, post, or template with the event_identifier parameter to display a list of attendees along with their specified answer(s).

Tickets

If you want to add the answers to custom questions to tickets created by the Ticketing add on, you can add the following snippet to your ticket template:

<?php echo do_shortcode( '[EE_ANSWER q="10" a="'.$data->attendee->id.'" ]' ); ?>

Simply change the 10 in q=”10″ to the ID for the question you want the to display the answer of.

Troubleshooting Event Espresso 3

Thursday, May 24th, 2012

These are some quick tips that help solve common issues with Event Espresso.

After updating

Many problems can occur if you have old template and gateway files in wp-content/uploads/espresso/

Payment gateway option is not displaying Look for any files and folders in wp-content/uploads/espresso/gateways

You can rename this directory to /gatewaysOLD. If you had made customizations made to the previous version’s gateway files, these can be re-made with the new gateway files

Shopping cart is not working Registration pages are displaying as closed/not working This is usually caused by having out of date template files (from a previous version) in the /wp-content/uploads/espresso/templates/ directory. If you have modified templates in there, they need to be updated to the new template files included with the current version of the plugin. If you haven’t made any modifications to the templates, these can be removed. If you are not sure if there were modifications made to these files, back these up or rename that folder just in case. You may also try clearing your browser’s cache


Duplicate registrations
Registrations are duplicated in the reports

If you have a caching plugin enabled, disable caching for the pages that handle the registrations. Most popular caching plugins have settings that allow you to disable caching for specific pages. Disable caching for the main registration, auto return URL and notify URL pages as set in Event Espresso>General Settings>Page Settings. For detailed instructions refer to our ‘How to Setup No-Cache/Exclusion Rules for Event Espresso‘ page.

Emails are not being sent when someone registers.

Check your email settings in Event Espresso > General Settings > Email Settings. If registration confirmation emails are set to be sent after payment is received, are payment notifications being received from the payment processor? If not, it might be an issue with payment notifications not reaching your server. See the section on incomplete payment troubleshooting.

Some email servers do not like the custom email headers. Try setting “Use fancy email headers?” to No. If you’re using WP Mail SMTP with Gmail, also check your spam box to make sure Gmail isn’t filtering the confirmation emails as spam.

The email from name is “WordPress”

If you’re running Event Espresso 3.1.16.P or greater, you can enable “fancy email headers” which will output the organization name as the From name. This setting is in Event Espresso > General Settings under the section labeled “Email Settings”. Alternatively, you can use a plugin like wp mail from to change the from name.

General troubleshooting

Check these first:

  • Verify Event Espresso and the add-ons are up to date with the latest versions.
  • Check for theme and plugin conflicts by switching to the default WordPress theme and deactivating the other installed plugins.

Known plugin conflicts with Event Espresso 3:

  • Cart66 Lite and Cart66 Pro
    Filter: Show / Hide Columns tab disappears with either Cart66 plugin active.

    with Cart66

    without Cart66

  • Contact Form Clean and Simple

    Breaks the Event Espresso registration form
  • Constant Contact for WordPress

    Breaks the Event Espresso edit event page
  • MailPress by Andre Renaut

    Breaks the [payment_url] and [invoice] links in the EE3 emails
  • Visual Form Builder

    Breaks Authorize.net SIM (offsite) payments
  • Wishlist Member Pop Content

    Removes the 0 option for # of tickets in the Multi Event Registration cart registration, making it so you have to purchase 1 of each ticket type to register w/MER
  • NextScripts: Social Networks Auto-Poster

    Related forum topic. Reported Workaround: Deactivate the graph tags feature.
  • Google Analytics for WordPress

    Breaks the “add additional attendee” toggle in mobile Safari. Google Analyticator works as an alternative.
  • WPML Multilingual CMS

    Conflicts with the WP REST API requests from the EE4 mobile apps

Installation

Unzip the initial zip file that the plugin files are packaged in and then upload the individual plugin zip files.

Registration pages

404 errors

  • Verify main registration page setting is correctly pointing to the page with the [ESPRESSO_EVENTS] shortcode.
  • Verify the main registration page is published and not password protected.
  • Check for plugin conflicts.

JavaScript errors

Add additional attendee dropdown not working

Registration form validation not working

Check the version of jQuery that is on the page. Event Espresso requires version 1.7 or higher. The version that is included with WordPress will work. If theme current WP theme is using an older version of jQuery, update the theme to use a newer version.

Edit the main registration page and wrap the [ESPRESSO_EVENTS] shortcode with a [raw] tag: [raw][ESPRESSO_EVENTS][/raw] If the theme doesn’t support the [raw] tag, look for <p> tags getting output around the JavaScript in the page source.


Image

Verify that jQuery is being loaded in no-conflict mode. Check the page with Firebug or the web inspector. If an error as shown below appears, either replace the $ with jQuery or wrap these functions in a no-conflict wrapper.


Image

Register link redirects to list of events

Verify that the [ESPRESSO_EVENTS] shortcode is placed on the main registration page. Do not replace this shortcode with [EVENT_LIST], create a new page to use this shortcode.

Ticketing add-on

Can’t connect to events
Events are not loading in the app
  • Verify you have the JSON API Add-on installed and activated.
  • Verify you have the latest ‘HD’ version of the Event Espresso app.
  • ‘espresso-services’ is used with older previous versions of the app and is no longer required if you use the JSON API and HD app versions, this information is included for legacy purposes
  • Verify that the espresso-services folder is uploaded into the root WordPress directory on the server.
  • Verify this directory’s permissions are set to 755.

Incomplete payments

Here are seven things you can do with PayPal when payments notifications are not being sent to Event Espresso.

  1. Make sure you have a standard or a business PayPal account, personal accounts will not work.
  2. Turn on your IPN in the PayPal account settings.
  3. Make sure your PayPal account is verified.
  4. Make sure your Event Espresso pages are not protected or private.
  5. Check the log file in wp-content/uploads/espresso/logs for errors.
  6. Verify that cURL is installed on the server. The requirements check plugin from Event Espresso can check for this: https://eventespresso.com/requirements/.
  7. Install the simplified transactions page template.

More information can be found here: Problems with Incomplete Payments – Download

White screen / Internal 500 server error

This could be a lack of memory on the server, a database issue, or a conflict with another plugin.

  1. Turn on WP_Debug in the wp_config.php file. Set this value to true and you may get an error message that will point to where the problem is.
  2. While you’re editing the config.php file, you can bump up the memory limit by adding: 
    define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '96M');

    Here’s a plugin that can help gauge memory usage: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-memory-usage/

  3. It could be a conflict with another installed plugin. Rule this out by deactivating all non-ee plugins and re-testing.
  4. If you’ve lost admin access, you can disable plugins via FTP by renaming the plugins directory.

Template Customization

Thursday, May 24th, 2012

Important
The following notes apply only to Event Espresso 3. Information for customizing Event Espresso 4 events can be found here.

As with any front facing plugin, sometimes things don’t match your existing layout, or you would prefer a featured image on the right rather than the left, or really you need the date and time to be together instead of separate or this change, or that tweak.

At some point we will all change or want to change something that Event Espresso 3 does, which is why we work hard to allow flexibility with the front end design.

Core Templates

The way Event Espresso 3 allows customization is via templates. By default these are found in plugins/event-espresso/templates.

It is not recommended to edit those files directly in that folder, you should copy across the required files to wp-content/uploads/espresso/templates and edit them there.

Any file found in the /wp-content/uploads/espresso/templates/ directory will be run instead of the default ones, effectively overriding the default templates.

Files

Please do not copy every template file over, only copy across the files that you will edit. This allows you to maintain the files much more easily.

Often the files come in pairs, so for example if you need to edit the event_list_display.php file, you will need to copy that AND the event_list.php file to the uploads/espresso/templates directory otherwise the modified file will be ignored.

Paired files include:

  • event_list_display.php & event_list.php
  • registration_page_display.php & registration_page.php
  • multi_registration_page_display.php & multi_registration_page.php

CSS

Whilst looking in the templates directory, you will see a folder for CSS files. The main stylesheet that can be modified is the espresso_default.css file.

The other stylesheets are deemed legacy files after version 3.1.29 and should be ignored. If you are using an older version of Event Espresso that is using the legacy files, we would recommend backing these files up, updating your Event Espresso and using the css as a base for the Theme Roller styles or turning off ThemeRoller and adding the styles to your themes css.

Whilst editing the stylesheet is one way of generating a suitable style, Event Espresso also comes with ThemeRoller stylesheets that can be accessed from the Template Settings options page and can style your Espresso events with the click of a button. Examples of the ThemeRoller styles can be found here (left side menu, click Gallery)

Payment Gateways

Payment Gateways can also be modified, but we strongly advise you to be careful when modifying these or seek a professional developers assistance. Again it is advisable to copy these to the uploads folder. You can do this with individual payment gateway directories. Example, if you want to modify the PayPal gateway, we recommend copying the PayPal directory to wp-content/uploads/espresso/gateways/ so it would read wp-content/uploads/espresso/gateways/paypal.

Files

Do not copy every gateway directory to your uploads folder, only copy those that you are directly modifying.


Updates

We are continually trying to make Event Espresso bigger and better and as a result we will occasionally amend the default templates or another files interaction with the templates. In this situation your modified templates will cease to function or will function erratically.

To resolve this you will need to compare your modified file with the new default templates and create new templates based on the new default files and your previous modifications.

For example, if you added a section to show the staff member in every event, you would need to rename your modified file, copy across the new default template and make the modifications to that template. This is often easier done offline.

To help further we recommend the use of a “Diff” file viewer, which highlights differences between text and files. We recommend DiffMerge  (plus it is free!).

Custom Files Add On

You don’t need to use this add on, but we highly recommend it if you are creating new shortcodes or functions, so you don’t have to hack or change the plugins core files. This add on is not installed like a normal add on but its files are copied to the uploads/espresso directory. See the Custom Files Add-on documentation for more information.

          • Removed the $raw_email_subject = $event_name; from line #1160 in includes/functions/email.php. Not sure why it was there, but it was overriding the custom subject lines.
          • Fixed the issue with additional attendees getting the event price in the conf email after payment.
          • Fixed a JS problem in the widget and a style issue.
          • Modified the confirmation page to show the correct prices. Did not delete any variables as the people who are using the old conf. page would have problems. The issue with the individual attendee amount not showing has also been taken care of for people with older conf. page.
          • Version 3.0.19.b.10
          • Fixed a few minor issues with the email confirmations, such as ticket type and time options
          • Added email shortcodes for the venue information
          • Removed some extraneous text from the payment templates
          • Fixed the return payment pages to show the payment options and removed empty fields
          • Added text to denote online and offline payment options int he payment templates
          • Fixed the problem with the PHP “short open tags” that was causing issues in Windows servers.
          • Version 3.0.19.b.7
          • Added two columns to the attendee overview in the admin area. One column shows the price/ticket option, the other shows the time of the event chosen.
          • Version 3.0.19.b.7
          • Removing from beta. Everything seems to be pretty stable for most users.
          • Fixed a lot of potential problems with the language files. It seems some of the translations had return and new line breaks (\r\n) in them. This seems to have caused lots of problems for international users. Hopefully removing these pieces of code and formatting the text located in the translation functions will fix this problem.
          • Version 3.0.19.b.6
          • There was still a problem when registering attendees from the same computer for free events or when payment was not finalized (ie. downloading an invoice or paying by check.) This has been fixed in the gateway files and template files. If you are not using the default payment gateways or templates, you will need to make sure these are updated.
          • Attendees with a ‘Pending’ payment status are now counted as a paid attendee.Added the payment_overview.php template for displaying payment information after a payment has been made or if clicking on the payment details link. This will also display if  the attendee chooses to pay using cash or check payment option, provided they click the new ‘finalize registration’ link, if these modules are active.
          • Clicking the ‘Download PDF Invoice’ payment option will now mark the attendees as pending.
          • Added a ‘finalize registration’ link when using cash or check payment gateways. Clicking the ‘finalize registration’ link will mark the attendees as ‘Pending’ in the payment overview.
          • Version 3.0.19.b.5
          • Added filters for displaying events and attendees in the Event Overview page. Filter events by month/year, category, active/inactive/deleted status. Ability to show all, today’s, and this months events.
          • Filter attendees by month/year, category, payment status. Search by email address, name, transaction id, payment type/status, etc. Ability to show all, today’s, and this months attendees.
          • Added “Edit” and “Delete” links to the additional attendees
          • Fixed emails not showing the right information for attendees and additional attendees. As long as the primary attendee updates the additional attendee data, it should display the custom questions properly.
          • Fixed the bug when multiple people register from the same computer, for the same event, the previous record was deleted. As long as everyone goes through the entire process and pays, the previous wont be deleted.
          • When registering for free events the registration is now finalized and does not delete the old record when using the same computer to register for the same event twice.
          • Added fix to remove the HTML entities from the PayPal response
          • Fixed the coupon code bug
          • Version 3.0.19.b.3
          • Fixed an error in the email.php. Was missing an ‘>’ in one of the array variables fro the address on line #126.
          • Version 3.0.19.b.2
          • Added the option to choose the amount of events to display in the admin dashboard.
          • Version 3.0.19.b.1
          • Updated attendee and event listing pages in the admin area
          • Fixed problems with editing custom questions in the attendee editor and confirmation pages
          • Fixed excel export problems
          • Fixed HTML formatting error in the dashboard widget

Events Calendar Add-on Changes

          • Version 1.8
          • Added the ‘cal_view’ shortcode parameter. Available parameters: month, basicWeek, basicDay, agendaWeek, agendaDay
          • Version 1.7
          • Fixed it so that the calendar script is only loaded when a page containing the calendar shortcode is called.
          • Updated to only load CSS on calendar specific pages. Added a setting that will allow admins to assign page ids that load the calendars.

Members Add-on Changes

          • Version 1.7
          • Added surcharge changes
          • Version 1.6
          • Added “Download Ticket” column and updated payment status column to use icons with a link to the payment details page.

3.0.18

          • Version 3.0.18.b.23
          • Fixed problems with email subject lines.
          • Fixed problems with attendees getting the wrong payment links in the email.
          • Cleaned up some of the event admin and attendee pages.
          • Fixed problem with invoice not getting loaded.
          • Version 3.0.18.b.21
          • Added number of attendee dropdown support. Still needs to be added to the custom files add-on for now. Will look into adding it as a choice in the main plugin.
          • Fixed a few things with the session variables.
          • Moved the unset session to the thank you page.
          • Fixed some hard coded table names in the add_attendees_to_db.php file.
          • Fixed it so that only paying attendees are counted. This should help with events filling up with unpaid attendees.
          • Version 3.0.18.b.20
          • Fixed issue with slashes getting added to quotes in the event titles and email contents.
          • Version 3.0.18.b.18
          • Email newsletter has been fixed
          • Added end dates to the Recurring Event Manager
          • Support for PDF tickets add-on.
          • Version 3.0.18.b.14 and below
          • Still working on a few things such as the attendee admin and navigation. Should be done with those things by the final release.

          • New event management interface and tables.
          • Now uses [] instead of {} format for page shortcodes. Example: [ESPRESSO_EVENTS]
          • Reconfigured the shortcode system to use the standard shortcode functions recommended by wordpress. This action should auto-update the old bracket ({ESPRESSO_EVENTS}) shortcodes to the new shortcode ([ESPRESSO_EVENTS]) system within your pages.
          • Removed the show single or all events check in the organization settings, as it was confusing to most people. Short codes such as [SINGLEEVENT single_event_id=”there-be-dragons-8297884″]
          • Changed the text ‘Use an off-site registration page’ to ‘Use an alternate registration page’.
          • Fixed the missing category bug and the alternate registration page URL in the widget.
          • Fixed a problem with empty categories in the espresso_event_category_data function.
          • Added CURL to the PayPal gateway. This should help with Godaddy accounts.
          • Added espresso_ticket_information function.
          • Moved the registration page validation script out of the registration page. Moved to the scripts folder and using wp_enqueue_script and wp_register_script to load the script.
          • Fixed a problem with the recaptcha verification.
          • Added an if statement to call the recaptcha script if it is active.
          • Fixed a problem with the post categories not staying checked when creating a post in the event editor.

3.0.17

          • IMPORTANT:
            Be sure to delete the old version of the plugin and install the new version. You will also need to rename or delete the gateway and template files that were installed by the previous version. The old gateway and template files will be located in the the ‘wp-content/uploads/espresso’ directory.
          • I have rewritten the registration system(as of version 3.0.17.b.30) and separated the registration_page.php (now registration_display.php) and event_list.php (now event_list_display.php) templates from the logic/SQL code. Hopefully customization of these files will be easier.
          • I have rewritten the payment gateway system (as of version 3.0.17.b.30.) Made it a little easier to create additional payment gateways in the future. Existing gateways should be removed and replaced with the new files.
          • Added support for custom post types. Using the custom post type “espresso_event”:
          • Added a custom email manager. Create customized emails for use in multiple events.
          • Added support for custom post types and shortcodes for posts.
          • Enabled multiple post categories in edit_event.php
          • Added support for the Recurring Events Manager add-on.
          • Added address2 field for event the address.
          • Moved all of the time and date functions into functions/time_date.php.
          • Added define(“EVENT_ESPRESSO_UPLOAD_URL”, WP_CONTENT_URL . ‘/uploads/espresso/’);
          • Updated the event_espresso_get_price function to include early pricing in the display.
          • Fixed Coupon mixup on the attendee list page.
          • Fixed the /templates/return_payment.php file:
            * Changed line #12 to if ($payment_status == “Incomplete” || $payment_status == “” ){. If the payment_status field was blank, return the return payment page would break.
          • Added the espresso_event_category_data($event_id) function to get the category details of an event.
          • Added a “Secondary” status to to events. This will allow events to be set up as a secondary status for use as overflow or waiting list events.
          • Added a new parameter to the get_number_of_attendees_reg_limit function
            * @params $full_text – the text to display when the event is full
          • Change get_number_of_attendees_reg_limit($event_id, ‘available_spaces’, ‘All Seats Reserved’) in event_list.php
          • Fixed some style issues in admin styles.css
          • Added four new functions to time_date.php file:
          • function espresso_event_time($event_id, $type, $format = ‘M d, Y’)
            * Returns the times and dates of individual events
            * @params $event_id (required)
            * @params $type ( start_date_time (default) | end_date_time | start_time | end_time | start_date | end_date | start_timestamp | end_timestamp )
          • * @params $format outputs the date format. Please refer to the PHP Date Manual for date formatting examples.
          • function espresso_countdown($time_start, $time_end, $expired_message)
            * Calculates countdown times
          • function espresso_countup($time_start, $time_end, $expired_message)
            * Calculates the time since the event
          • function espresso_duration($event_start, $event_end, $allday)
            * Calculates the duration of the event
          • Added an export all attendees (for all events) button.
          • Removed the double quotes and back slashes from the form builder. They were causing very weird issues with some themes. Not sure why, but some themes would render the double quotes and slashes into HTML special characters. Therefore rendering the forms useless and would not pass the registration information to the payment page.
          • External Registration URLs. Can be used to link to external websites or registration pages.

            • * @params $event_id (required)
            • * @params $time (optional, start_time (default) | end_time)
          • Changed the plugin to use the built in jQuery library, instead of the Google jQuery API.
          • Adjusted the questions display query to order by group order. This will work if the users do use the group_order field. Otherwise the questions will get mixed up.
          • Added the search and replace values to the invoice email

          • Added a check to see if the member price was empty, if so then add the base price to the member price column.
          • Added default sequence number of ‘0’. This was causing an error if the sequence number was left blank.

How to Customize your Available Spaces Text

Friday, April 6th, 2012

In some cases, you may not always want to display the number of available spaces, but you do want to let people know that spaces are, in fact, available. In certain situations, there may be the perception that if there are a lot of available spaces, that an event may close, which would dissuade people from signing up even if that isn’t the case. This simple tweak will allow you to inform your users that there are spaces available without disclosing exactly how many until there are only a few left.

Usage notes:

You will be modifying PHP code. You will need a text editor or an IDE. Always make a backup and, if possible, test on a local or development install rather than making changes to your live site. Template files should always be uploaded to /wp-content/uploads/espresso/templates/ and not the plugin templates directory. While we have provided this tutorial and may be able to provide some amount of support for it, we cannot support any customizations you make to your own site.



Note: This will be updated for Event Espresso 3.2.

There are two files that we will be looking at. event_list_display.php and registration_page_display.php.

In your favorite text editor or IDE, open event_list_display.php and scroll down to lines 94-106. This deals with the Available Spaces message that appears in the event list. We are going to change the text from “Available Spaces: ” and a number, to something more friendly that does not reveal the number of spaces available. Jump down to line 103 and replace this:

<?php if ($display_reg_form == 'Y' && $externalURL == '') {?>
<p id="available_spaces-<?php echo $event_id ?>" class="spaces-available"></p>
<p id="available_spaces-<?php echo $event_id ?>" class="spaces-available"></p>
<?php 
        }
?>

with this:

<?php if ($display_reg_form == 'Y' && $externalURL == '') {
?>
<p id="available_spaces-<?php echo $event_id ?>" class="spaces-available"><span class="section-title">
<?php if ( get_number_of_attendees_reg_limit($event_id, 'available_spaces') >= '10' ) { 
echo 'Sign up now! Spaces are available!'; 
} else { 
echo 'Time\'s running out!  Only ' . get_number_of_attendees_reg_limit($event_id, 'available_spaces') . ' spaces left!'; } ?></span></p>
<?php
}
?>

This will display this message if there are 10 or more spaces available:

Sign up now! Spaces are available!

and this message if there are less than 10:

Time’s running out! Only xx spaces left!

While we’re at it, let’s change the default waiting list and no spaces available messages a little friendlier. Pop up to line 97. This area deals with what happens if there are no available spaces left. First, on line 97, we’re going to replace this:

 
<p id="available_spaces-<?php echo $event_id ?>"><span class="section-title"><?php _e('Available Spaces:', 'event_espresso') ?> </span><?php echo get_number_of_attendees_reg_limit($event_id, 'available_spaces', 'All Seats Reserved') ?></p>

with this:

<p id="available_spaces-<?php echo $event_id ?>"><?php echo get_number_of_attendees_reg_limit($event_id, 'available_spaces', 'There are no more spaces available for this event.') ?></p>

If you have waiting lists set up, you might want to change the text that displays for that (line 99). Replace this:

<p id="register_link-<?php echo $overflow_event_id ?>" class="register-link-footer"><a class="a_register_link" id="a_register_link-<?php echo $overflow_event_id ?>" href="<?php echo espresso_reg_url($overflow_event_id); ?>" title="<?php echo stripslashes_deep($event_name) ?>"><?php _e('Join Waiting List', 'event_espresso'); ?></a></p>

with this:

<p id="register_link-<?php echo $overflow_event_id ?>" class="register-link-footer"><a class="a_register_link" id="a_register_link-<?php echo $overflow_event_id ?>" href="<?php echo espresso_reg_url($overflow_event_id); ?>" title="<?php echo stripslashes_deep($event_name) ?>"><?php _e('Sign up on the waiting list?', 'event_espresso'); ?></a></p>

So, the whole thing will look like this:

<?php $num_attendees = get_number_of_attendees_reg_limit($event_id, 'num_attendees'); //Get the number of attendees. Please visit https://eventespresso.com/forums/?p=247 for available parameters for the get_number_of_attendees_reg_limit() function.
    if ($num_attendees >= $reg_limit) {
        ?>
<p id="available_spaces-<?php echo $event_id ?>"></p>
<p id="register_link-<?php echo $overflow_event_id ?>" class="register-link-footer"></p>
<p id="available_spaces-<?php echo $event_id ?>" class="spaces-available"></p>
<p id="available_spaces-<?php echo $event_id ?>"></p>
<p id="register_link-<?php echo $overflow_event_id ?>" class="register-link-footer"></p>
<p id="available_spaces-<?php echo $event_id ?>" class="spaces-available"></p>
<?php 
        }
    } 
?>

Feel free to let us know in the forums if you have any questions about this tutorial!

Basic Styling with CSS of the Registration Form

Thursday, January 26th, 2012

The default registration form simply prints out fields with labels, and isn’t exactly a visual stunner. So, I’ve toyed with CSS a bit, and came up with a fairly trivial set of CSS settings that will make the default registration form a lot better.

Note:
This was submitted by a member in our support forums. It is provided for reference. We cannot support customizations to your theme or the Event Espresso plugin without the purchase of a support token.

To give you an idea, here’s the registration form with my styling hack applied:

registration form

As you can see, I’ve just moved the text labels a bit to become right-aligned to what now are neatly left-aligned input fields. Also, labels are formatted in bold, and the added asterisk of mandatory fields (“questions” in EE parlance) is styled as bold and red to make it stand out a bit more.

Finally, I’ve added a minor tweak also to the text that appears when some mandatory field is not filled out by the registrant, as you can see here:


missing information

Instead of tinkering with the template file – not that there’s anything wrong with that, this is just a very trivial visual clean-up hack – you can include the following to your (child) theme’s style.css file:

/* Event Espresso registration form basic styling */
.event_questions label {
width: 125px;
text-align: right;
float: left;
margin-right: 5px;
font-weight: bold;
}

.event_questions label em {
color: red;
font-weight: bold;
}

.coupon_code label {
font-weight: bold !important;
}

input[type="text"] {

Overview

You can make changes to Event Espresso by editing the templates located in the wp-content/plugins/event-espresso/templates folder. These can be used to change the PHP to meet any specific needs that you have.

If you make changes to these templates you should move them to the wp-content/uploads/espresso/templates folder to prevent them from being overwritten when you upgrade Event Espresso.

Also, if you have made changes to any template you you will need to check the files in the original templates folder each time you update Event Espresso. It’s important that you check to make sure that nothing has changed to avoid any conflicts. You can use a tool like DiffMerge to compare the two files and update any changes made.
