Custom Event Attributes Still Appear After Deleting Them

Hi Chris,

Have you tried deleting them from Events > Settings > General > General Options?

Hi there,

Thank you so much for taking the time to reply. Much appreciated.

Yes, I’ve deleted them completely. And checked and checked again! There isn’t anything at all in the section (general options – event settings – event attributes) where it says:

“You can also add event attributes here, one per line in this format #_ATT{key}. They will not appear on event pages unless you insert them into another template below, but you may want to store extra information about an event for other uses.”

But they are still appearing whenever I try to “add event” under the section “attributes” or when I use the event submission form they still appear. It is almost as if a cache has not been cleared or something and the values are still stored in the system somewhere even though they are not listed anymore in the general options – event settings – event attributes

Any advice would be really appreciated,

Best Wishes & once again, thank you for your time,

Chris.

did you have past events or future events which uses this custom attribute?

Dear Angelo,

Thanks for your reply.

No, I have no events at all that use this custom attribute either past, present or future. Actually, I’ve deleted all the events to see if it makes a difference. But still, when I “add event” these custom attributes still appear underneath and in my event submission form.

Please help – is this information stored in the database somewhere do you think? Where is it getting it from? I’m fairly word-press savvy and you might be thinking I haven’t deleted them properly from Event Attributes under “General Options – Events” but I’ve checked many times and there’s nothing there,

Any other suggestions?

Best Wishes,

Chris.

I found the solution

It was because I had still made references to these attributes in the

Settings -> Events -> Formatting -> Single event page format

I removed these and problem solved.

Thank you!
