I have enabled the plug_dtregister plugin but it is not creating a link in my content item. Also, I could not find where the "Event_id" was listed. I looked in the Database for the id. JEvents nor DTRegister shows me the event_id?

Any ideas on what would cause the plugin not to work?

Joomla 1.5.8
DTReg 2.5.2b
plug_dtregister 2.3.2
CB 1.2 RC4

This was already addressed through a support ticket and found to not be a problem, but just the wrong use of the event ID. Also ranail checked out our video tutorials after posting this and found his answers :) For anyone else interested...

Hover over the registration link for the event in the main list of events for DT Register. You will see the url in the bottom of your browser window. In that url is "eventid=xx". The number you see there in place of the "xx" is the event ID. This is the number to use in the plugin code.

So on your page, you can insert:

{dtregister}87{/dtregister}

...and a registration link (or button depending on your settings) will show for the event with ID #87.

If you assign an article to an event in Event Management, the registration buttons will automatically show at the bottom of the article. If you manually insert this plugin code somewhere else on the page, the buttons will NOT show on the bottom still.

Of course, you need to have the EventLink Plugin installed AND enabled for any of this to work. Don't forget to check out the video tutorial that shows how to setup and use this plugin.

Yes I found the event_ID by viewing your video, thanks. But, the plugin is not making the replacement when content is showing in a module position.

I noticed the same for other content plugins like rokaccess.

I was attempting to only show a "Register" button if they were logged in.

i.e. {rokaccess !guest}{dtregister}24{/dtregister}{/rokaccess}

this works fine when you display the article directly, or from DTRegister event list->Details, but none of the content plugins seem to execute when they are being displayed outside the frontpage in a module position.

It just shows the raw tags with no replacement.

Does something different have to be done when content is displayed in this fashion?
