Changing meta description in list view.

[clearwater]

It looks like list view currently displays the meta description of the upcoming event. I’d like to change it to show something else. Is there any way to do this?

Hi L, sure you can change this. You can start by overriding the list template in /wp-content/plugins/the-events-calendar/views/list.php and placing a copy in an ‘events’ folder in your active theme. Then, just modify the code as you see fit. For more on override see this article: https://theeventscalendar.com/support/documentation/events-calendar-themers-guide/

Cheers,

I am currently overriding that file, but it calls wp_head, and I don’t want to include my whole header in the list.php.

Hi L,

You must be editing an older version or the wrong file because the current list.php file does not (and has not for as long as I can remember) call wp_head(). What version of the plugin do are you running?
