# Only require event location name

 * Is it possible to make all event location specific fields optional,
    so only 
   the event location name is required? I was unable to find an option for this.
 * Edit: There are no filters for this in the code and the required fields are hardcoded.

    Actually, there are filters used. You can try to hook into the
   filter ’em_event_validate’ for events or ’em_location_validate’ for locations.
