Change of venue and organizer details – event submission form

[fabcar]

Dear team

On the events/community/add event submission form we would like to remove some fields for the venue details and organizer details (i.e. delete phone number for the venue). According to the manual we assume we should make a copy of venue-fields.php under the following path:

/[themesname]/tribe-events/community/modules

We did that, and took out some parts however no succes yet (changes are reflected). Can you help to confirm if we are touching the correct file or do we also have to touch on edit-event.php file similar to the following thread?

Thank you for your support.

Best regards,
Fabrizio

Hi Fabrizio!

I’d be happy to help you figure this out.

Editing that particular template is not going to have the effect that you want. After much digging, it turns out that editing the fields for venues and organizers on the community events submission form is not achievable just by creating a template in your theme/child-theme folder. There is apparently a filter that would let you edit that whole chunk of content, but there are no examples of how to do this anywhere.

Are you just wanting to hide some of the fields? This could be done pretty easily using CSS. For example, this will hide the phone number field for the venue:

#tribe-community-events .tribe-linked-type-venue-phone {
display: none;
}


Let me know if that will work, and if you need help with the CSS to target any of the specific fields.

Thanks,
Sky

Dear Sky

Many thanks for coming up with a solution, very hepful. We will check the CSS and amend it accordingly.

Will let you know if something is still unclear.
