Option for event display only was created by victoria
Hello,
I am trying getting familiar with EB, seems to be a great plugin to make the events from A to Z.
However, for my website, at this point, I only want my registered users to post their events for display purpose only , from frontend.
I use the menu type, Submit Event which comes with full options for registration, payment, etc. Is there a way that I can customize the Submit Event form, so I can hide most of options displayed in there? At this point I only need title, dates, locations, and event discription, and image.
I don't want to modify the code either, bc, first I don't know how to change it, second, I will be using registration and payment functions in few months.

Thank you for your support.

Hi

For your need, I think simple layout would help. Please go to Events Booking -> Configuration, look at Themes tab, find the config option "Frontend event submission form layout", set it to Simple

After that, please check it again and let me know if it works

Regards,

Tuan

Thanks, simple layout works a lot better than default layout. But I still need to modify the forms to hide some labels and input boxes. Do you recommend using CSS (like display:none) or is there a better way to achieve this?
Thanks.

Hi

I think you should look at the file components/com_eventbooking/view/event/tmpl/simple.php, customize the code to remove the part you don't want

It should not be hard if you know basic PHP / HTML programming
