Trying to modify Event List Widget Display

    I am hoping to modify the information presented in the items of the list. I had presumed that it required a simple template edit, but so far I have not been able to figure it out.

    What I would like is for each item to have the following structure:

    Date—Venue
    Event (Times)

    Any help anyone can provide will be greatly appreciated!

  • Hey Darnoldy,

    While we unfortunately cannot help with code customizations, this should indeed be possible with some template modifications.

    To learn about how to make such modifications, check out this guide here ?? https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/themers-guide/

    When it comes to finding template tag functions to generate data like the date and the venue names and all of that, I would recommend looking at the examples in the existing template files for reference and tinkering from there.

    Sincerely,
    George

    George-

    Thanks for the reply.
    Knowing that what I want to do is possible does help; as does the themers’ guide link.

    I have found the proper template to modify. Part of the issue is that I was looking for variables $theTitle while you seem to use functions the_title()

    What would really be helpful is a list of the functions and what they return—maybe that’s already in your knowledgebase and I have missed it. As an example, tribe_get_start_date() returns not only the start date, but also the start time.

    Thanks again for your help!

    Thanks for following up, @darnoldy!

    You bet — we actually have all of our functions documented here for future reference:

    Cheers!
