Adding meal option

  • Hi David,

    I’m trying to add a meal option as described in the link above. I suspect that has been superseded by a Gutenberg revision.

    I see on my form for an Event, Options/Custom fields and there I find a meal option which I select. When I click edit and update that option, there’s a yellow flash but nothing else. The page does not change.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    I do recommend switching to the Gutenberg form builder, which is where I’m putting most of my attention. While I intended to maintain compatibility with the shortcodes (particularly for people who have existing events and templates set up to use them), I see that there does seem to be a glitch with how the old shortcode format for meal choice works.

    You could go into code editor mode and paste in your edited version of this code block (which should work even if you have Gutenberg disabled):

    <!-- wp:rsvpmaker/formradio {"label":"Meal","slug":"meal","choicearray":["Beef","Chicken","Vegetarian"],"guestform":true} /-->

    If I figure out what’s broken with the shortcode, I’ll put out an update

    I have the Block Editor enabled for that page with RSVP Form:3397 showing.

    But I don’t see how to enable the meal option nor do I see your dialog to make that happen.

    I should also say that we have two tanker planes in a circuit to dump red stuff on a wildfire about a mile away and a helicopter picking up water in a large bucket from our golf course pond. The wind is gusting to about 60 mph currently.

    I have the meal option enable correctly for the Guest(s) so I assume I add a separate radio series for the User?

    Stay safe, John!

    In the block editor, you can click the + button to add a new block and search for “radio” to find the RSVPField Radio Buttons block.

    The options are set in the sidebar.

    When you add a form field to the main form, there is an option to specify that it should also be displayed in the guest form. I recommend doing it that way if you want the meal choice to show up in both places: main form and guest form.

    It is possible to set fields that show on the guest form ONLY, by embedding them within the guest form block. Example: Registration for parent and children, where the form for the children (registered as guests) asks for their grade level. We don’t need to prompt the parent for the grade level.

    Great!

    That works exactly as I want it to.

    Hello,

    Is it also possible to show this option when people click on the ‘Show participants’ button? E.g. when a note is entered, it will appear in the attendants list, can the meal option also be showed here?

    Thank you in advance
    Niek
