Community event new user Login page

[Shah]

Dear:

I noticed that the new user community event login page has changed.

Please see the following email message that a new user receives after registering:( I have modified the message a little bit)

Thank you very much for registering with Medical Events dot com, home of Medical Industry Events. Please copy password below. Click on login link in the last line, add user name and paste password , click on login. Remember, you can always change your password once, you are logged in.

This takes me to user profile page.(previously it would go directly to Submit event). When I move mouse to events on top, the following options appear(divided in two sets)

View calendar
Add Event
Edit Event

Community: Submit event
Community: My events

Firstly, it is confusing since, the community event submitter does not know the difference between “Add event” and “community submit event”
Secondly, when we click on Add event, it takes back to home page instead of add event.

Is there any way we can get rid of the first three items (View Event, Add Event, Edit Event) to avoid confusion?
Is there any way that the new registrants goes directly to event adding page http://medicalevents.com/events/community/add?? If needed he/she can click on profile to modify his/her account.

By the way:

I have solved the problem of login emails not being received by new users for hotmail after a lot of research. Let me know if you want me to send you the details.

I deactivated woocommerce and Tickets etc. since, it created a lot more problems. Simplify commerce would not accept using community events.

Hi Shah,

Thanks for reaching out to us, and also for taking the time to fully describe this 🙂 Let’s jump into your questions…

#1

Is there any way we can get rid of the first three items (View Event, Add Event, Edit Event) to avoid confusion?

Hopefully there is, just add the snippet below to your theme’s functions.php file -located at wp-content/themes/your_themes/- and it should do the trick:


add_action( 'wp_before_admin_bar_render', 'remove_wp_nodes' );

function remove_wp_nodes() {
global $wp_admin_bar;
$wp_admin_bar->remove_node( 'tribe-events-group' );
}


#2

Is there any way that the new registrants goes directly to event adding page?

I think we can find a way around this. How are you customizing the registration email? Surely we can hook in the Community Add Event URL there.

Please let me know about these two,
Best,
Nico

Dear Nico:
Thanks for your help.

While I will work on item #1 regarding deleting add event etc and keeping add community events, I request you to help with #2.

The email plugin I am using is called SB Welcome email and here is the body text setting in parenthesis:

“Thank you very much for registering with Medical Events dot com, home of Medical Industry Events. Please copy password below. Click on login link in the last line, past password , click on login. Remember, you can always change your password once, you are logged in.<br />Username: [user_login]<br />Password: [user_password]<br />[login_url]”

Please let me know what to change here

Hey Shah,

Thanks for the follow-up!

Got, you jumping to #2 then. I’m not sure how the shortcodes in SB Welcome work, or if you are able to insert PHP code there, so my suggestion is to input the URL directly like this:


... Username: [user_login]
Password: [user_password]
http://medicalevents.com/events/community/add


That will surely work! If you prefer not to have that hardcoded URL in there, you should look for SB Welcome documentation or ping the author/s about it.

Do you think this can work for you?
Best,
Nico
