Hi Cliff,

Thanks for your reply,

Can you cast your knowledgeable eyes over the code below and see if there is a problem I’m missing. I had a similar is a year ago that occurred after an update. The issue was resolved following another update.The code was taken 2 years ago from here https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/required-fields-for-events-submission-form/

//* Community form compulsory fields
add_filter( ‘tribe_events_community_required_fields’, ‘my_community_required_fields’, 8, 1 );

function my_community_required_fields( $fields ) {
$fields = array(
‘post_title’,
‘post_content’,
‘event_image’,
‘EventStartDate’,
‘venue’,
‘organizer’,

);
return $fields;
}

Hi Cliff,

Thanks for your reply.

The problem relates to entering content via the Community Events front-end form. http://marlborough4fun.co.nz/events/community/add/

I have the latest version of all software, I’ve deactivated plugins etc. This site has been working fine for the last year.

Thanks for getting back to me.

The best thing to do is to update them all at the same time

Would have been nice to be made aware of prior to having to allocate over an hour to carry out a simple update. This problem could have been sorted out with a script, rather than one that deactivates the 3.12 plugins without any warning.

I seem to remember that the last update left community events unusable for over a week whilst a fix was built.

Anyhow, the plugins work now and waiting with trepidation for your next update!!

Thanks Brian for your full response.

That answers all my queries.

Have a good day

Cheers Barry, that worked great

Hi Barry, Thank you very much – that worked perfectly. On that logic I attempted to add text for the upload image. I adapted as suggested but something is incorrect. An chance of a pointer, please.

add_action( ‘tribe_events_community_before_the_event_image’, ‘custom_ce_text_msg2’ );
function custom_ce_text_msg2() {
echo ‘A picture is worth a thousand words… Upload yours in landscape orientation, please!’;
}

Actually, no it doesn’t. The reason I chose your events plugin was because it was just that – it’s a plugin. I am not a php coder, nor do I have the resources to unravel your code and work out how I can add such fundamentals as event title, descriptions etc. SEO underpins all successful websites and to omit that with your product is a profound shortfall. Although I have become familiar with the Events Pro setup, should I be engaged to design another event website, the lack of out-of-the-box SEO will effect my choice of any event plugin I select for future clients.

[katecooteltd]

Had I appreciated the lack of SEO prior to installation and setup, I would have had second thoughts about Events Pro. Big shortfall for an otherwise good product.

Thanks for your pointers.
Although the “iCal Import Month’s Events” button does add events to a calender I really need a printable list of a months events rather than a click and tell for each individual event as I am not sure the newspaper can do much with iCal. Indeed is iCal a mac app or would it work on Windows too?
Once again, thanks for assistance.
