I have the \/events\/community\/add page set up and ready to go for my new website, but in testing I am finding that if I leave a required field empty (such as Event Title or Event Description) and hit submit, the form resets and the “Event Time & Date”, “Event Image” and “Event Categories” fields do not retain the information that was entered. (“Venue Details”, “Organizer Details”, “Event Website” and “Event Cost” do keep their data.)<\/p>\n
Particularly since the datepickers are reset, I’d like to find a way to prevent this from happening. Else we will end up with a lot of events submitted with today’s date instead of the actual date.<\/p>\n
Is there something that I can do in my configuration to avoid this? I would consider changing “Event Description” to make it not required, as that would be an easy answer and I think it’s more likely that field will be left empty as opposed to the Event Title, but can’t seem to find this as an option in the admin.<\/p>\n
EDIT: I am making an edit of this submission just to make a minor correction, and when I clicked Edit, the dropdown menu to select the support channel, the Site’s URL, and the System Information field were cleared out and I had to enter this information again. Not exactly the same issue, but essentially the same result as the issue I’m seeking support for.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1447539","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\n
