Limiting user created venues to certain Provinces/States, with drop down.

[Katharine Mills]

Hi there,

I am looking to create an user submitted events list site using Events Calendar, Community Events and Filter Bar.

I will only be accepting user submitted events from certain Provinces in Canada, and certain States in the USA. Additionally, since the events and venues will be user submitted, I’d like to make the Provinces/States location field a drop down with pre-loaded options rather than have users write the name of the state themselves, to avoid Typos or irregular formatting.

Can you please advise if it is possible to limit community events to certain states/provinces? And if it is possible to make the Provinces/State a dropdown option? Thank you!

Hi there,

Thanks for emailing support.

This is possible but would require a lot of custom development. We can refer you to a customizer if needed. Out of the box, the only option you would have is to allow the submissions to go to a draft for pending review. Then someone would need to go in and approve or reject the event.

Thanks,
Brendan

Hey there! This thread has been pretty quiet for the last three weeks, so we’re going to go ahead and close it to avoid confusion with other topics. If you’re still looking for help with this, please do open a new thread, reference this one and we’d be more than happy to continue the conversation over there.

Thanks so much!
