venue[url] field overwritten with empty value on edit.

[Greg]

I think there’s a bug in the front-end venue edit form venue[URL] field. Steps to reproduce:

1: Add a community event using the front-end form.
2: Add a new venue while creating the new event, be sure to include a URL in the website field.
3: Save the event, go to the My Events list and click the new venue to go to the edit venue form. (Website field is blank, although you just populated the field on the add event form.)
4: Go back to the event edit form. (Venue website field is blank here as well.)
5: Now view the newly created event. (Venue website field displays the entered URL.)
6: Go back to the edit event or edit venue form and submit without making any changes.
7: View the event again. (Venue website field is now empty, overwritten by the blank input on the edit form.)

Hi,

Thanks for the information. I was able to reproduce this bug. You are correct it is saving in the database, but it is not showing on the front editor so the value is being overwritten.

I have created a bug ticket to address this. We do have a release coming out in a couple weeks and I might be able to get this into it. I will not know until Monday. If not I maybe to get some coding together to fix this in the mean time.

Let me know if you have any follow up questions.

Thanks

[Greg]

Thanks for the follow up, Brian. I’ll close this ticket and wait for the update.

Ok I created a bug ticket for this and the other issue and included both these tickets with that bug ticket. So when we have news we will update you through the threads here.

Since there is nothing more I can do here, I am going to go ahead and close this ticket, but if you need help on this or something else please post a new ticket.

Thanks
