Modifying Event Registration Templates

[HarryJ]

We have used CiviEvent for online event registration for the past few years. The form uses price sets. We are on CiviCRM 4.4.4.

Our Registration is for Individuals or Families, so we have enabled 'Addtional Participants' to allow multiple registrations for the family. We set the registration choices as a radio control with three choices: Individual, Family, or Additional Person with the registration control as required and Additional Person fee as zero.

In the past, we have hidden the Additional Person choice on the Register.tpl and hidden the Family and Individual choices on the AdditionalParticipants.tpl using custom templates. It has worked great in the past. When we modify the 4.4 versions, it throws an error:

TypeError: $(...) is null

The line contains: $("#CIVICRM_QFID_257_6").hide();

We have been following the instructions here:

http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC/Customize+Built-in,+Profile,+Contribution+and+Event+Registration+Screens

Anyone have similar difficulty?

Try

Code: [Select]

cj("#CIVICRM_QFID_257_6").hide();

That worked! Thanks Hershel.

For others, the proper syntax on the wiki (link above) should be:

Code: [Select]

{literal}
<script>
cj("#YOUR_CIVICRM_QFID_999_9").hide();
cj("label[for='YOUR_CIVICRM_QFID_999_9']").next('br').remove();
cj("label[for='YOUR_CIVICRM_QFID_999_9']").hide();
</script>
{/literal}

Can you update the wiki?

[HarryJ]

Yep. Done.
