    Hello,

    #_EVENTLOCATION{join_url} worked just fine until a week ago, for sending confirmation emails to users once registered, or (display on a web page) EG. In the confirmation email, this would provide them with a direct link to join the meeting. IE:
    URL: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/83271468562?pwd=ZnExWXIvbU5LYTVDLzFEM1RCc21NQT09

    Now, the same process provide them with a link like this :
    URL: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/86571046284
    so that they are now requested by zoom to register to the meeting

    Note that I always selected “registration required, Manual approval” when creating my zoom events thru the plugin

    I can see that the user’s emails have been automatically registered in zoom with a “approved” status. I can also see that Zoom now sends it’s own confirmation email with a valid direct join link that does not require any registration nor login.

    The above shows that things have changed in Zoom and/or Event Manager

    Moving forward,
    1. I found that the “#_EVENTLOCATION{join_url}” placeholder is no longer usable whenever registration is required. In that case, the #_BOOKINGZOOMJOINLINK has what I was looking for, IE., a direct link for the participant to join the meeting. This placeholder works well in the confirmation email …
    … but it does not seem to be working in the single event page format, where I used to display the join_url on the event page, whenever the logged in user has a booking. If I replace #_EVENTLOCATION{join_url} by #_BOOKINGZOOMJOINLINK in the following code, #_BOOKINGZOOMJOINLINK does not get translated:

    {is_user_attendee_1}
    <p>
    Lien de connection <br/>
    Meeting ID : #_EVENTLOCATION{id} <br/>
    Meeting Password : #_EVENTLOCATION{password} <br/>
    </p>
    {/is_user_attendee_1}
    2. Until this is solved, I decided to create my events with “no registration required”. Problem here is, no confirmation email is sent to the participants after I approve their bookings. I think I’ll create a specific thread for that issue.

    Looks like I’m stuck here … could someone please take a look into this ?

    Thank you

    Lionel

    Appologize, I see that the code sample above is not displayed properly. Hope it’ll be better now.

    {is_user_attendee_1}
    <p>
         <a href="#_EVENTLOCATION{join_url}">Lien de connection</a> <br/>
         Meeting ID : #_EVENTLOCATION{id} <br/>
         Meeting Password : #_EVENTLOCATION{password} <br/>
    </p>
    {/is_user_attendee_1}

    I also realize my explanation may not be clear … I’m not a native english speaker.
    Since #_EVENTLOCATION{join_url} is no longer relevant when using “registration required”, I tried this

    {is_user_attendee_1}
    <p>
         <a href="#_BOOKINGZOOMJOINLINK">Lien de connection</a> <br/>
         Meeting ID : #_EVENTLOCATION{id} <br/>
         Meeting Password : #_EVENTLOCATION{password} <br/>
    </p>
    {/is_user_attendee_1}

    Problem is, #_BOOKINGZOOMJOINLINK seems to be working only in the confirmation email formatting, not for the event web page formatting.

    Makes more sense ?

    Thanks

    We’re just reviewing past threads to help resolve them and then hopefully new forum posters will read our recently created sticky post at the top of this forum, asking users to direct questions to our Events Manager plugin forum instead, which we monitor daily!

    This should probably be fixed in the 1.4 update just now, so I’ll mark this resolved in anticipation. If not, please let me know and unresolve this thread. We can finish resolving this issue on this forum for now!

    Hello Marcus,

    Thanks
