No ability to add a new organizer for community events

[Nicole]

Hello,

It appears from this video https://theeventscalendar.com/product/wordpress-community-events/ and other posts in this forum that anyone submitting an event via the community plugin should be able to add a new event organizer (or at very least select an existing organizer).

We have a very standard install of the events calendar community plugin and I cannot see the fields to add the Organizer. The entire “organizer details” section (as shown in the video) appears to be missing from the community event submission form on our site.

I have searched through all the settings to see if I need to tweak something to ensure that this section shows up however I have not found any way to enable it.

The people submitting events on the community plugin are not logged into wordpress in any way. They are just visitors to the site. We have “Allow anonymous submissions” checked. We have not selected any default organizers or venues.

Can you please tell me what we are missing or doing wrong?

Hi Nicole. Thanks for your thorough question.

I tried the Community Events “Add New Event” form on my local testing site and the Organizer field was definitely there: http://cl.ly/0b1c3j2k2h0B

It actually is on your site’s form too, just that it’s hidden by line 920 of /wp-content/themes/schc/style.css?v2: http://cl.ly/1n1V1q162z3b

Please give that a look and let me know if you have any follow-up questions.

Thanks!

Hi Cliff,

Thank you SSSOOOOO much!

I was tearing my hair out as to why it wasn’t showing up and clearly I did not recall hiding it with CSS when the site was setup a while ago!

So sorry for troubling you with this oversight.

Thanks again,

Nicole
