Disable Event Image Upload

[hc2ca]

Looking to disable the event image upload capability, removing it entirely from the community submission form for the time being. There does not seem to be a quick and easy way to edit what shows up on the community form.

H2ca,
Yes, you can definitely remove the image upload field easily enough. Just perform a Template Override by doing the following:

1) Copy ‘/wp-content/plugins/the-events-calendar-community-events/views/edit-event.php’ to the following directory: ‘/wp-content/themes/YOUR_THEME_DIRECTORY/tribe-events/community/’.

2) Find the following code on line 53:

and change it to the following:

Then save the file and you’ll be good to go!

Just let me know if you have any questions about how to do this. Thanks!

Thanks Casey. I don’t seem to have a file called: edit-event.php in that directory. Cannot find it in the hooks or modules folders in ‘the-events-calendar-community-events’ either. Should I be looking elsewhere?

Hc2ca,
It sounds like you’re not running version 3.1 of Community, since you have the ‘hooks’ folder in your plugin directory. Could you try updating to 3.1 and then trying my instructions above? Thanks!

Casey,
The plugin appeared to be 3.1. I re-downloaded it, and everything was where you suggested I look. Changed the line in the file and moved it to the theme directory. Image upload was removed, but it was also replaced with the code I changed:

Hc2ca,
I’m so sorry! It looks like my code above was modified when I pasted it in. Line 53 should look like this (remove the space between < and the ?): http://pastebin.com/p0qxA3jY

Try that and let me know if that fixes it. Thanks!

[hc2ca]

Perfect, thanks!

Great! Since it looks like you’re all sorted, I’m going to mark this thread “Answered” and close it out.
