eme_event_preinsert_filter

[Anonymous]

I have created templates for determining the type of the event.
When I create a new event and do not want to use the default settings. I choose a template under the heading event format (Drop Down), this document specifies the type of event.

I use the filter do insert templates for this type:
Single event format
RSVP
Email format
Event image
e.g. Attributes

This works well and is a great improvement

Now my problem.
If I create an event with recurrence and default settings, after I have pressed the Save button I see a gray screen. The code seems to stop.
If I click on event edit, only the first event of the series was added.
In this case, through the filter the contents of $event are not changed.
Without the filter there is no problem.

I just tried using this in my functions.php (basically not changing anything):

add_action('eme_event_preinsert_filter','do_my_stuff');
function do_my_stuff($event) {
   return $event;
}

and I could create a recurrence just fine …

Edit: if the code stops, there’s a php error somewhere. Check your webserver error logfiles for clues.

The error reports are a problem, I can not access the reports.

OK, I have worked with add_filter, it works well, without recurrence.
Now I tested the whole thing with add_action, it does not work.
I can’t change the contents of $event.

When I look at the file eme_events.php, I found the following code.

function eme_db_insert_event($event,$event_is_part_of_recurrence=0) {
   ... 
   ...
   if (has_filter('eme_event_preinsert_filter')) $event=apply_filters('eme_event_preinsert_filter',$event);
   ...
   ..
   if (!$event_is_part_of_recurrence && has_action('eme_insert_event_action')) do_action('eme_insert_event_action',$event);
   return $event_ID;
}

If I have found the correct code I think I need add_filter, here I can return a value.
The option with do_action provides no way to return a value.
I’m not a coder, my thoughts are correct?

No sorry, it needs to be add_filter, not add_action. My bad.
Let me retest.

I added this to my functions.php:

add_filter('eme_event_preinsert_filter','do_my_stuff');
function do_my_stuff($event) {
   $event['event_name'].="test";
   return $event;
}

(just adding the string “test” to each new created event. Works fine for normal and recurring events.
