Hi, I am new and trying to figure things out. I am trying to remove the required field function from events. I want to leave the field just remove the required part. I found a few suggestions in this forum and I tired them but they did not create the solution. It removed the * and the error message but the the field was still required to fill in before it would post. Again, I do not want to remove the field just the requirement to fill it right then before it will post. Seems this has been a problem for some time, just hoping someone has created a solution.
Remove Required in Events

Only two things are need for this : 1) Replace 'required' => true with 'required' => false 2) Remove the checker portion B.T.W, which specific field are you referring to ? Paypal email is jeromemingo@gmail.com - http://www.boonex.com/market/posts/modzzz |
The only field I want mandatory is the Title. Thanks for your suggestion but, unfortunately, it didn't work. Got this message when I tried it -- Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ',' in /hsphere/local/home/me/website.com/modules/boonex/events/classes/BxEventsFormAdd.php on line 202 Earlier I tried changing true to false and it did remove the * but did not remove the requirement to fill in. |
Attach a copy of the changed file here so I can point out what you did wrong. Paypal email is jeromemingo@gmail.com - http://www.boonex.com/market/posts/modzzz |
This is what I put in after following your directions.

For the "checker", you need to remove the full block, not just the one line. For example, for Country, remove this block of code : 'checker' => array (
'func' => 'preg',
'params' => array('/^[a-zA-Z]{2}$/'),
'error' => _t ('_bx_events_err_country'),
),

It WORKS!!!! Thank you. Just wondering if I would mess anything up by removing Categories since it doesn't have the same script as the others and I can't disable and don't really need it. |
Well just remove it and check and if there is any issue you put it back :) It WORKS!!!! Thank you. Just wondering if I would mess anything up by removing Categories since it doesn't have the same script as the others and I can't disable and don't really need it.
