Linking titles in Calendar List directly to external websites

    Hello, we are posting the events of our 30 international centers on our umbralla site. At the moment I am collecting and copying the event descriptions from all their websites, a lot of work, and I thought to improve the workflow and reduce the duplicates by instead linking to the original websites directly from our calender list. The titles of the events are now automatically linked to the event page of our EM plugin, how could I achieve that I can change that to a custom URL that I can enter individually for each event in the event editor? Thanks a lot, Sofian

    just to confirm, are you using EM default full calendar and custom event attribute or fields as your custom url?

    Thanks for the superquick reply. I don’t show the full calender, I list the events as posts (Event Manager Options / Pages / Event List/Archives / Display calendar in events page? set to No)

    And I use the event list formatting. At the moment I use #_EVENTURL to generate the href for the title, and here I would like to use a custom URL that I can set in a custom field in the event editor. These custom event attributes of fields that you mention, how can I create them and then use them in my event list formatting?

    As you say, I think using custom attributes would be the best way to do this:
