Category Title on Category List pages

[Anderson]

I need category event list pages to display the name of the event category at the top of each event category page, such as http://site.com/events/dog-days/ (“Dog Days” would display on this page). Can this be done using this tag? php echo tribe_meta_event_category_name();

I’m not sure of how to add this as a conditional in list.php so the title only displays on category list pages. Thanks

Hi Krysia,

To modify page titles in your theme you’ll want to find wherever the_title() is called. It’s going to either be in header.php, page.php or via your functions.php file. Once you’ve found where the titles are output you can add the category name like so:

if( tribe_is_event() && !tribe_is_day() && !is_single() && is_tax() ) { // Events List Category Pages
echo 'Events Calendar' . ' » ' . single_term_title('', false);
}

I hope that helps!

Sorry if I wasn’t clear. The event page titles are fine. What I’m needing to do is have a title for category event list pages, which have a list of all events under a certain category. So if the event category is “Lectures”, I want it to say “Lectures” at the top of this page (“located at” http://site.com/events/category/lectures). Currently nothing displays. Thanks!

My bad. This totally works. I actually just put it into “list.php” and it works well. Thanks so much.
