Default to Allowing RSVPs (or any way to bulk edit?)

    Hello,

    I love this little add-on for TEC. I like the whole “allow RSVP” thing and the ability to restrict to logged-in users. BUT… I create all my events by importing a massive .csv and the events are created with the ‘allow RSVP’ and ‘restrict to logged in’ boxes unchecked.

    Is there a way to change the default setting so that all events have these checked unless they are specifically unchecked manually?

    Or, failing that, it would still not be too bad if there was a way to bulk-edit all of them. I’d rather not have to go into each event and manually check those 2 boxes if it can be avoided.

    Any help or ideas appreciated. Thanks!

    Hi!

    You’re right – it’s turned off by default and that’s intentional, I felt the site admin should explicitly allow RSVPs on an event-by-event basis rather than just assuming it should be available by default ??

    I can understand your problem, though. Here’s how I’d tackle it if I were in your shoes:

    • I’d listen out for the creation of new events, using the save_post hook (or the more specific save_post_tribe_events hook)
    • I’d then add some post meta data for the new event if it is not already present
    • The meta keys you would use here are _eventrocket_enable_rsvp and optionally also _eventrocket_restrict_rsvp
    • Setting those values to true will turn on RSVP facilities as needed

    Since the save_post hook fires even when events are imported by CSV, this should serve your needs nicely ??

    Awesome. If every plugin was this useful and had this level of support, I’d be thrilled!

    Thanks so much. I am only a barely competent developer but that level of instruction is amazing. Thanks for sort of teaching me how to do this. I am sure I can figure it out from here.

    Do you have a paypal email or something I can send to?

    Thanks,
