Not choosingVenue and Organiser using Events Calendar Pro 2.0 with Gravity Forms

[Aaron]

Hi, I’m using Gravity forms to add events and after I post the event I get use new organiser and use new venue when I open the event but neither is being chosen from the one that I just added. I go through the list and it has been added to the list but it doesn’t choose it.
How do I make it select the one that is being created from the Gravity forms?
thank you.

Hey Aaron. Have you checked out our forum on this, where users were exchanging suggestions on how to make it functional? It’s right here: https://theeventscalendar.com/support/forums/topic/integration-with-gravity-forms/. We also published some suggestions on our end: https://theeventscalendar.com/event-submissions-using-gravity-forms-in-2-0/.

While we can’t provide direct support on that hack (though you may be able to get some suggestions by checking with Tim, who wrote the GF integration aspect initially), I will note that our official equivalent of this – the Community Events add-on – will be out in early 2012 and should have what you’re looking for in it.

Sorry I can’t offer more here. Let me know if you have any other questions on this.

Hi Rob, I just tried it again and I just can’t seem to get it right.
The venue and organiser still don’t get saved.
do i need to do anything special for them other than add this to the functions.php: https://theeventscalendar.com/event-submissions-using-gravity-forms-in-2-0/
time and date gets saved and the event as well. but the venue and organiser don’t seem to work for me.
these are the fields i’m using: _VenueAddress _VenueCity _VenueZip
these are the fields i’m currently not using: _EventVenue, _EventVenueID, _VenueVenue, _VenueCountry, _VenueAddress, _VenueCity, _VenueStateProvince, _VenueZip, _VenuePhone
is it because there’s mandatory fields for venue? if so, what are they? eventvenue? venuevenue? etc.
s the country mandatory if it’s already set to default for a country?
am i meant to set the venueid or that gets set automatically as it’s added and that creates the database relationship?

organiser fields used: _OrganizerOrganizer, _OrganizerPhone, _OrganizerEmail
organiser fields not used: _EventOrganizerID, _OrganizerWebsite, _OrganizerPhone
same for organiser.?

thanks. aaron.

Hey Aaron. I’ll see if I can get one of our advanced devs to offer up their insights on this, sometime this week.
