Luckily someone came by today who knew. It’s like this.
<td>
<input type=”checkbox” checked=”checked” id=”EventShowMapLink” name=”EventShowMapLink” value=”1″ <?php checked( get_post_meta( $event, ‘_EventShowMapLink’, true ) ); ?> />
</td>You show that you know exactly what I mean, but you assumed just a little too much knowledge. I placed ” ” around ‘checked’, which is obviously not it because it did a lot of damage to the page.
Below is one of them, could you please demonstrate where to place (checked=”checked”)
<td>
<input type=”checkbox” id=”EventShowMapLink” name=”EventShowMapLink” value=”1″ <?php checked( get_post_meta( $event, ‘_EventShowMapLink’, true ) ); ?> />
</td>After that I will have the problem of hiding it. You suggest by .css – I’d presume by wrappimg it in a <div> but within the table element. I hid many other things from the same form with files in the same folder (eg. cost.php, image.php), but if the default value is set here, in venue.php, then I guess hiding it by commenting out the html is not an option.
Anyway – it’s a step beyond my current knowledge so please demonstrate.
Thanks, TimUpdate: The attempt to integrate with Formidable has failed, and so I’m now planning hack the code of Community Events to comment out the parts that I don’t want, and to try and set some defaults as I want.
Any timely tips would be very welcomeHelp came from Formidable Forms:

It looks like that plugin wants all those specific $_POST variables
that are included in that custom code. You need to change this hook:
add_action(“gform_pre_submission”, “format_event_date”);
With this one:
http://formidablepro.com/knowledgebase/frm_validate_entry/I might have seen the way through. The following tutorial gives the Calendar’s field identities, so it should be the same for Formidable Pro as it is for Gravity forms, except that the custom fields is a built in feature, so no extra plug-in needed. I expect this will be successful, I’ll let you know if not.

regards, TimThe Formidable Forms route would allow me to add the organizer to an AWeber mailing list as they press submit.
The support at Formidable replied “This doesn’t require custom code. Go to the “create posts” tab, select the post type for calendar, and add whatever custom fields they require”
This is great news, except that Events Calendar pro splits info into three separate areas. This is one thing stopping my automation of this process at the moment. The other is that if I have selected ‘venue’ as the custom post type, when I go to ‘custom fields’ to match your fields with Formidable’s, the custom field options don’t seem to match the fields of your post.
Integration with Formidable would be a great asset to you. If you currently search for ‘Event Calendar pro / Formidable’ there is one post with a question from a failed attempt to which you answer that it would be better not to buy the Pro version.
Is there a way to add this AWeber function (join a particular list with the e-mail of the organizer) to the Community Events add-on ?
Thanks
Tim
