    funnily enough, for me i don't need to do anything except use the shortcode, and of course make sure things are enabled in the events ~ settings page at the bottom.

    Hi Marcus.

    I will start again. At first i installed a fresh WordPress and the plugin Events-Manager. After install i configure the settings and enable anonymous submissions. After this i create a new Site and put the shortcode [event_form] in this site. When i go to this site i can not see a the submission form..... So what is wrong.?

    Please help...

    hi, try downloading the plugin again. I noticed I didn't add the new file into the svn server, but now it's there. (templates/forms/event-form.php)

    Hi Marcus,

    I'm also having an issue getting the event form shortcode to work for anonymous submissions. It looks like I have the form in the folder. I've activated the option in setting. Any advice on what I should try next? I'd love to get this working--it looks so promising!

    Thanks

    might be that the event-form.php is in the wrong folder. bump this if it still doesn't work in the next update

    I downloaded the update today and the file was in the wrong folder, I've moved it and it works fine now.

    This form is going to be great, will save me having to set up users :)
    It will also take out the step of event organisers having to log in.
    Great work!

    Hello,

    Can someone tell me please where the event-form.php file is, and where I need to move it to? I have added the shortcode to a page but...no luck.

    Thank you!

    Hi chemcom,

    I found event-form.php in this folder - /wp-content/plugins/events-manager/templates/templates

    You will need to move it to templates/forms/event-form.php as Marcus has suggested above.

    Thanks muscat, I found the file and moved it.

    Strangely though, moving it hasn't made the form appear. I still have a blank page where it should be. The shortcode is in and anonymous submission is set to yes. Is there anything I could have missed?

    Thanks again!

    Are you logged in to your admin area? The form doesn't display if you are logged in to admin.

    Thanks muskat, I logged out of admin to view the site and still no luck, same thing if I log in with a different user.

    I'm having the same issue.

    Settings seem to be right, I tried moving the file as suggested above.

    This is a new install of both wp and the events plugin.

    Have tried logging out, and tried ff and safari, with no success.

    A second site, recently upgraded, used to show the form, and now does not.

    should be working in the latest version (for guests only).

    Still not working in 4.13. Have tried deactivating and reactivating.

    Maybe my expectations are wrong: As I understand it, visitors should be able to create a new event, which the admin can them approve.

    that's what it does. it works for most, but it's beta so future improvements will probably fix that

    Thanks, Marcus

    Should registered users be able to create events as well (not through the wp back-end but through the plugin)?

    Is there a way to have an email sent to the admin or the associated user account when an event suggestion is submitted?

    no but already in the todo list

    if you can code, you could easily do this by hooking into something like the em_event_save filter

    I didn't make any folder moves. Using <?php em_get_event_form_shortcode(); ?> and things work fine.
    Can anyone please tell me what will be the shortcode relevant to this template tag?
    (Let me tell in advance, [event_form] not working)
