Hello.<\/p>\n

I have Community Events set up so that anyone can post events that need to be approved later. However, I would like them to be able to add a value to a certain custom. I tried editing the “custom module” to add the field, but while the field showed in the form, it was not saved when the form was submitted. When adding events from the admin interface this custom event can be added without problem.<\/p>\n

This question is similar to this one<\/a>, where it is implied that this can be done. However, I have not found a way to do this, and if someone could point me in the right direction that would be appreciated.<\/p>\n

Thank you. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1084422","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\nAdding custom fields for community added event -<\/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\/adding-custom-fields-for-community-added-event\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Adding custom fields for community added event -\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Hello.
