GroupJive Events custom fields

Did you enable substitutions for the output?

Yes this is enabled for output also but it only displays [cb_marketing_multiplier] and not the substitution.

Are you sure the field name is correct in your substitution? That typically means the field doesn't exist.

I found that it was controlled by CBSubs for availability
That explained why it displayed only the non substituted data. Maybe you could add a text saying controlled or not visible in such circumstances ?

BTW can you tell me what is the variable to use in an auto action in order to display this field which belongs to the event owner ? shall I set the user to something particular or make a query ?

Raw [FIELD_NAME] substitutions should always be accessible, but worst case you just access the user object directly yourself if needed. Example as follows.

Unless you set the owner of the auto action via the User parameter you won't be able to. The event owner user object is not built and passed to that trigger. Only the user executing the trigger is passed through. The event display trigger variables are as follows.


To force the User to be built from the event owner you need to adjust your auto action as follows.

User: Specific
User IDs: [var1_user_id]

All substitutions in your auto action should then come from the event owner.

event display trigger variables

Thanks for above

With this trigger, where is the output displayed ? I tried or
but it does not show up in the group event tab display ?

You've mixed 2 questions in 1 topic so there's a bit of confusion here. The array usage is for adding a new tab to the group, which you asked about below.

For gj_onDisplayEvent you'd just do a return output and it will output in the footer of the event. There is no other placement options available unless you move the trigger results in the template files.
