Frontend submission form: Multiple organizers? Email obfuscate plugin?

[Rafael]

Hello support team

I noticed that with the newest plugin version 3.11 the frontend event submission form has changed and now offers users to add multiple organizers. I assume that’s an intentional new feature? I’m confused about it because I coulnd’t find it in the release notes:
https://theeventscalendar.com/release-version-3-11-of-the-events-calendar-pro-and-all-add-ons/#community

Is there a way to deactivate this feature?

Is there a way to remove the note about the “obfuscate plugin” below the email field?

(PS: I’m confused about the obfuscate plugin. I don’t have it installed, but does its function still work through the community plugin? If not, why does the note appear at all?)

Hi Rafael,

Thanks for contacting us and I’m sorry for any confusion that has arisen.

Our apologies for not detailing the multiple-organizer change in our update notes: we should have been clearer on that point. Generally speaking, though, the Community Events form has and continues to be almost a direct reflection of the event editor found within the admin environment.

Is there a way to deactivate this feature?

I’m afraid no settings exist to change this. I’d love to hear more about the reasons you wish to “unwind” this change, though – as we’d certainly be open to the possibility of making a change.

Is there a way to remove the note about the “obfuscate plugin” below the email field?

We do in fact have an issue logged to remove this from the Community Events submission form. The intent is to help educate site admins about the danger of “exposing” email addresses and point them to a source of plugins that can help with this, however it doesn’t really make sense to have this in the Community Events form.

For both of these problems, if you create a new stylesheet in your theme at YOUR_THEME/tribe-events/tribe-events.css and add the following rules, you should be able to achieve something that looks close to how it did previously:

Does that help?
