Redirect after Community Submit

[Luke Kenny]

Until a recent update, when a user clicked Submit at the end of the Community Events Add Event page (/events/community/add) they would be re-directed to the Event List (/events/community/list)

It seems that now after clicking Submit, a message saying Post Updated appears, and the form clears.

I have tried installing the plugin found at https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/redirect-to-different-url-after-event-submission/ and setting the redirect link to /events/community/list, however it seems to have no impact.

Is there any way to restore the previous behaviour, or any reason the plugin above is no longer working?

That’s odd — seems to work for me, Luke.

Here’s what I did: I already had the latest versions of The Events Calendar and Community Events installed and activated and I added the plugin from the knowledgebase article you referenced.

I then visited Events ‣ Settings ‣ General and located the Redirect after Submit field, setting it to /sample-page — with that done I submitted a new event via the frontend submission form and on completion, I was taken to the page I specified.

Is there anything about the above steps I’d need to change to be able to see the problem? Alternatively, is it possible that a different plugin or even your current theme is interfering? Our standard troubleshooting steps could be a good way to bear that out.

Let me know if you have any further questions on this one!
