Greetings. This is an awesome component which is serving us very well as a company. However, I have one issue I've been unable to resolve. When I'm setting up an event through Event Management and choose the option to display the Event Details link in the list view that link never shows up. The Show
Attendees link works and the Registration button option works as well, but I'm not seeing anything which allows the user to click through to the Event Details.

Any suggestions?

Kind regards.

I believe you have to have an article unique to the event you want the 'details' link to link to set up.

You'll see right above the option to show the event details link a three boxes where you choose the section, category and finally the article. This will automatically create a register now button on that article when visitors clicke the 'details' link.

You need two things to show the Details button:

1) For the event, set "Show Details Link" to YES.
2) Use the dropdown selections to select a unique article about this event.

If you have the EventLink plugin installed and published, you will then get a registration button automatically added at the bottom of this article. Thanks.

Whenever I edit an event, the settings for "Event Details Article" disappear and then the "Register Now" button disappears from the article. As it is now, I have to edit the event and save. then I have to open the event again and fill in "Event Details Article" again.

I am having the same issue. Also, I would like to link the same article to several events, however, the article get's linked to one in particular and that is the only one that appears when the user clicks "register now" button.

As stated earlier, you need to have a UNIQUE article for each event. Attaching the same article to multiple events will not cause your links to appear and work correctly.

Regarding losing the selected article when editing the event, this bug has been fixed and is included in the 2.5.9 package that we should be releasing today. Watch for that, update your installation, and you'll find that issue to be gone.
