Customise Add Event Page

[Justin]

Hi Guys,

As a beginner, I’d like to edit/remove the following options on the “Add Events Page”.

Can you tell me how to do that please? I’ve added a image to assist.

1) Event Description: In the “text/html editor” we would like to remove the “insert/remove link” options.

2) Remove: “Event Website, URL Text & Text Box” section as we assume this is a external link or redirection to a third party site and not the link of the event within the calendar.

3) Remove: “Enable Global Stock & Checkbox”

4) Edit: “Global Stock Level & Text Box” to display as a mandatory field ensuring customers allocate ticket quantities.

5) Remove: “Add New Ticket Link” making the Add New Ticket Section display automatically as part of the entire event submission process.

6) Edit: “Sumbit Event Button” Change Background/Text colours.

We’re aiming to simplify the process for our impatient customers LOL.

Thanks Guys,

Justin.

Hi, Justin.

I appreciate your detailed question and the desire to customize Community Events for your use. However, we cannot provide such in-depth customization help, per our Scope of Support / Terms.

Thank you very much for your understanding.

If you need some coding help, you may want to ask your developer or reference our documentation and list of known customizers.

However, I can try to point you in the right direction…

You can accomplish most of these via our Themer’s Guide for the files here: /wp-content/plugins/the-events-calendar-community-events/src/views/community/modules and in the directory above that (such as the edit-event.php file)

I’ll hit a few highlights that may not be part of the Themer’s Guide…

#1 – I believe the only way to accomplish that is to disable the TinyMCE / WYSIWYG editor by unchecking the box at wp-admin > Events > Settings > Community tab > “Use visual editor for event descriptions” option

#6 – Simply add custom CSS to get the coloring/styling you want.

For some of the other ones, you could likely hide such text via CSS as well.

You can add custom CSS code via your child theme’s style.css file or via a third-party plugin (not guaranteed or supported by us), like:

• SiteOrigin CSS (helps you visually build CSS selectors via its Inspector and Visual Editor, if that’ll help you)
• Simple Custom CSS
• Jetpack (supports regular CSS and the LESS and Sass pre-processors)

If you’re not a CSS expert, Jetpack’s Custom Design reference may prove helpful.

Please let me know how it goes for you.

Thanks Cliff, I’ll give it a shot.

Hi Cliff,

I found this Event Website URL but I don’t understand your definition of “DEPRECATED”.

If I remove this snippet from that file, does that remove the “Event Website URL” section on the Event Submission Form?

Thanks,

Justin.
