Customize titles in multisite installation

[crharrison]

Our client, who has pro installed on a site in a multisite installation, wants to customize the calendar so that starting times and venues are automatically added to the title.

Is this possible, considering the calendar is on a multisite network with other sites that have the calendar installed?

Also, her “venues” are rooms as the same address, so how would that work?

Hi @crharrison,

Thanks for getting in touch!

I do think this would be possible, if the customization was done on the network level.

For example, if all the sites are running on the same theme, then I would suggest writing a snippet and adding it to the functions.php file of that theme so that it applies to all the sites using it.

While we’re unable to provide direct support for custom development, I did write up a quick, untested snippet you can try using and, at the very least, use it to work off of for adding the start time and venue to the event title:

// Appends start time and venue to event titles
function tribe_events_title_include_time_venue ($title, $id) {
$separator = ' » '; // Separator between categories and title
if (tribe_is_event($id) && !is_single()) {
$title = $title . $separator . tribe_get_start_time() . $separator . tribe_get_venue();
}
return $title;
}
add_filter('the_title', 'tribe_events_title_include_time_venue', 100, 2);

Does this help answer your question? Please let me know. 🙂

Cheers!
Geoff

Thank you. So that change would affect all sites on the network, correct?

Hi @crharrison,,

Yes, it would, as long as the theme that is running the function is installed across all sites on the network.

Cheers!
Geoff
