is it possible to shorten #_EVENTNAME

hi,

you can create custom events placeholder to make this possible using this tutorial – https://wp-events-plugin.com/tutorials/create-a-custom-placeholder-for-event-formatting/

eg. https://pastebin.com/LecuD8bp

$replace = $EM_Event->event_name; 

ok – thanks – Then I’ll start a little thinking tour.

Here you go:

function em_customplaceholder_shorten_event_name($replacement, $EM_Event, $result) {
if( $result == '#_EVENTNAME' ) {
	// Delete the last 5 characters
	$replacement = substr($EM_Event->output("#_EVENTNAME"), 0, -5); 
}
return $replacement; 
}
add_filter( 'em_event_output_placeholder', 'em_customplaceholder_shorten_event_name', 1, 3 );
