    Hey Team Tribal,

    I have a couple questions

    1) If i would like to edit the core file can i create a woocommerce like structure in the child theme so my changes does not get effected upon updates ?

    2) I would like to add additional field to http://www.agencyclients.com/iqbal-event/events/community/add like bank details fields so the user fills in the form along with his bank details and the info gets sent to back end to the admin, after the review when we publish the events but we do not want the bank field to be display to the public in the events page. how can i achieve this ?

    3) here some fields are required like the “description” field how can i make it optional ?

    Thank you.

    Hey there, Carl!

    Good questions. Let’s see if we can tackle the one at a time…

    1) If i would like to edit the core file can i create a woocommerce like structure in the child theme so my changes does not get effected upon updates ?

    Absolutely, this is definitely possible and even encouraged. We’ve even created a Themer’s Guide specifically devoted to how to customize the plugin files without modifying core code, which I definitely recommend checking out.

    2) I would like to add additional field to http://www.agencyclients.com/iqbal-event/events/community/add

    Interesting. I will say this is quite tricky and goes outside the features that are available right out of the box. If I had to point you in a direction though, I would recommend using the Additional Fields feature in The Events Calendar PRO (Events > Settings > Additional Fields), then using a method such as if_admin() to hide that specific field from public view.

    3) here some fields are required like the “description” field how can i make it optional ?

    We actually have a handy tutorial that will walk you through this step-by-step. 🙂

    Does this help answer your questions? Please let me know and thanks again for reaching out.

    Cheers!

    Hi Carl! This thread’s been quiet for quite a while so I’m going to go ahead and close it. Please feel free to open a new thread if any other questions pop up and we’d be happy to help you there. 🙂

    Cheers!
