In reply to: [Plugin: Events Manager] Restrict users from editing their own EM "settings"Thanks, guys. I figured there must be a way to do this.
My php knowledge is limited to what I’ve learned in the process of modifying existing code, so I’m confident I could do it if I found the right resource to guide me.
I do think it would be an excellent addition to future releases of the plugin, though.
Thanks, again!
Yeah, it looks like that update took care of it. Thanks!
Interesting… I wonder why it didn’t work then. Thanks for the feedback. I’ll keep playing with it.

In reply to: [Plugin: Events Manager] Update for Buddypress 1.5?Nevermind, Marcus. I had completely forgotten about how you walked me through this before.
For anyone else who may run into this problem, you have to copy the /members/single/plugins.php and /groups/single/plugins.php files from the default buddypress theme over to the child theme.
Works like a charm, now!

In reply to: Random spam links showing in page/post content…Malwarebytes found one file, Adware.Hotbar, but unfortunately it’s removal didn’t do anything to fix the problem.
On to scan number two…

In reply to: Random spam links showing in page/post content…That’s what I have running right now. I’m sure it’ll find it. Besides solving my problem, I’m really interested to see what is really causing this. It’s actually pretty genius, albeit ridiculous.
The amazing thing is that it could go completely unnoticed if you never type the words it’s programmed to add links to.
The links have addresses with the domain of pixeltrack66.com, which if you visit directly, redirects you to mundomedia.com. Apparently MundoMedia is an online ad company. I’m going to give them a shout and see if they’re aware of all of this. I’m sure they’d deny it if they were truly behind it, but maybe they’d have some insight.

In reply to: Random spam links showing in page/post content…Yeah, it has to be something on my machine because I tried making the edits using Firefox and it caused the same problem. I typically use Chrome.

In reply to: Random spam links showing in page/post content…I just made a test post on a different message board and sure enough, “diet” turned into a link. This is incredible. I’ve got my scans running so we’ll see what comes up.
Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: Random spam links showing in page/post content…Yes, I tried disabling plugins.
You’re not going to believe this, though. I came back to see your reply and guess what? “Diet” from my original question is now a link to the very same website on here!! Looks like the problem may actually be an issue with my individual computer. Bizarre.
To check this, I just viewed my site on my phone. The links do not show on my posts or pages, but it still shows in the text widget. As I said before, I was able to actually see code being added to the text widget when going back to edit it.
It may be that there is something on my computer that is adding links anytime I post “diet” in anything online. This is certainly very interesting.
I’ll have to run some virus scans and see if I can figure out what is causing it.
Thanks for your response. I’ll try and update this if I figure out anything else.
That was it! Thanks a ton.
Now, for the “Use drop for locations?” issue, do you have any idea why it’s still listing the locations when I select “no” as the setting?
And is that all I would need to do in order to prevent other users from seeing all of the locations? I’m just worried about privacy concerns if, for example, someone listed their house as a location.
Thanks again for all of the help!
I totally see what you were trying to show me now. Once I switched to the default theme, everything worked as it was supposed to.
However, what could be causing the child theme to keep the plugin from working correctly? I’d obviously really rather use the child theme, but we can’t if it prevents the plugin from working correctly.
When I’m using the child them the links show in the admin bar, but whenever you click on them it takes you to the the home page of the site instead of showing the plugin pages.
Also, I have the “Use dropdown for locations?” setting set to no, but it seems like it isn’t turning it off on the add event page. Any ideas? I don’t want people to see a list of locations, unless I can limit them to only showing their own.
Sorry for all the questions. I really do appreciate it!
I guess I’m having trouble finding what you’re referring to.
Are you saying link them from the buddypress page to the add event page on the admin dashboard?
I don’t want any of my users to have to use the back end of my site. I want them to be able to use all of the functionality available on the dashboard, but make it available through a buddypress page so they never leave the front end.
I know this is a weird request, but it would make all the difference for my site.
Thanks again for the help and speedy replies!
Actually, what I would really like to do is provide a buddypress page that looks exactly like the add event page in the admin.
I tried creating a shortcode that would call the em_admin_event_page function, but when you view the page all you see is the shortcode. I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong.
I love how everything looks and functions on the admin side and I want that to be available for my users.
Thanks!
Okay, so I need to change the link by editing the template to send them to a different page within BP, right?
But what would I enter as the code for that page in order to give them the add location options?
Is there a short code like you use for the create an event page?
Thanks for the help!
