How to disable organizer details on front-end submission

[William Adeimy]

I want to be able to choose what fields are displayed on the front-end submission page:

How do I disable certain fields that I don’t want displayed on the front-end?

Hi William,

Thanks for reaching out to us! Hopefully this is something easy to do 🙂

You’ll need to override the submit/edit event template, I’ll outline the steps to do here, but be sure to check our Themer’s guide for further details on this.

Here we go:

– Create the following folder structure ‘tribe-events/community/’ inside you theme folder located at ‘wp-content/themes/your_theme/’.
– Make a copy of the file ‘edit-event.php’ located at ‘wp-content/plugins/the-events-calendar-community-events/src/views/community/’.
– Drop it in the above created folder: ‘wp-content/themes/your_theme/tribe-events/community/’.
– Comment out -or delete- the fields or modules you don’t want to be shown.

If you want to hide particular fields for a module the process is the same, just copy the module template to ‘tribe-events/community/modules/’.

Please let me know if this answers your question,
Best,
Nico

Hi Nicos,

I’m trying this out and have had some success. I’ve been able to hide some modules. However, still having a few issues:

1. taxonomy module is not showing at all even though it’s not commented out. Hopefully this will allow users to add a tag to their submission. But wondering why nothing is appearing at all.
2. how can I hide “Not Houman, log out”?
3. trying to edit the date picker module and I cannot find where I should comment out the “recurrence” field.

Thank you!

Hi Nico – upon further investigation I see that the taxonomy module only shows if event categories are used. I don’t use event categories so that explains why it doesn’t show.

However – as I posted in a different thread – it’s absolutely imperative I allow user-submissions to include tags – just like I can do via the backend. From everything I have seen – tags are not supported by default… but is there an easy way to add tag support? Maybe I can add some code in taxonomy.php which will open up a tag field?

@ Ben, I’ll be answering your questions on your own thread 🙂
