Hello, I’m having a couple issues with the Community Add On submission form. Specifically the Organizer Fields. One issue, led to another, so let me explain.<\/p>\n

The first thing I am trying to do is set the required fields for the Submission Form. Following this technique
\nhttps:\/\/theeventscalendar.com\/knowledgebase\/required-fields-for-events-submission-form\/<\/a>
\nI was able to get most of the fields required that I needed. Where I ran in to trouble was dealing with the Organizer Fields. It mentions in that post that I need to override the template to add the note “required” to the \u201csquare bracketed\u201d fields. However when I do try to override the community\/modules\/organizer-fields.php file it doesn’t work.<\/p>\n

So digging further I even tried to edit the plugin file community\/modules\/organizer-fields.php (a big no no), just to verify if it could be a theme issue and found it is not utilizing that file at all in the form. Further research I found this post that it is a bug in 3.12, and it is using a different file for that part of the form.
\nhttps:\/\/theeventscalendar.com\/support\/forums\/topic\/add-required-label-to-organizer-fields\/#dl_post-999699<\/a>
\nBasically it is using the-events-calendar\/src\/admin-views\/new-organizer-meta-section.php and not the template file anticipated. In fact this creates a problem with the required fields technique because the name of the Organizer Field is different. It is expecting it to be “organizer[‘Email’]”, but it is actually “organizer[‘Email’][]”. This also brings up issues that when the Required field error message comes up after submitting it doesn’t save the partially entered Organizer’s info that had already been entered (Name\/Email\/etc.). Those fields just go blank again.<\/p>\n

So my questions are (finally):
\n1. Can I override the admin-view file without editing the plugin directly or is there a way I can revert just the Organizer fields back to the earlier version 3.11 before this bug was introduced so I can utilize the normal template override procedure? Can I disable the ability to add multiple Organizers for the Community Submission Form?<\/p>\n

2. Can you tell me, using the required fields technique mentioned above, how I might edit that to work with the current set up? Basically requiring both the Organizer Name and Organizer Email. Or is there a better way to make those fields required?<\/p>\n

Thanks for your help.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1014577","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\nCommunity Submission Form Organizer Fields Template Override -<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/theeventscalendar.com\/support\/forums\/topic\/community-submission-form-organizer-fields-template-override\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Community Submission Form Organizer Fields Template Override -\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Hello, I’m having a couple issues with the Community Add On submission form.
