MEC frontend event submission

[candidcreative]

After submitting an event using the frontend event submission form, the form loads once again and populates the fields using the given data.

If someone were to add a second event by amending the data in the fields, it doesn’t create a new event, it just edits the event already created.

Is there a way to force people to refresh the page before submitting another event?

Thanks

Hey @candidcreative,

I tested the frontend submission and I experienced what you described. The form submission is powered by AJAX so the page doesn’t reload. It might be the design of MEC developers to allow editing the event after submission.

Regretfully, the only easy workaround for this is to insert a button that links to the same page above and/or below the MEC shortcode.

That will allow your users to edit the form and if they have the option to submit a new form.

Thanks.
