Customizing Upcoming Event Headings and category Images

[STEVEN CYRKIN]

Is there a way for an upcoming event heading to display both the category and subcategory?

For example, if I use the event category AUCTIONS with the subcategory HOMES, it currently displays the heading “Upcoming Events>Homes” when I’d like it to display “Upcoming Events>Auctions>Homes.”

I’d also like to be able to have a custom image on category and subcategory pages, so if the auction is for homes, there is an image for the page related to home auctions.

Thanks

I could also display “UPCOMING AUCTIONS>HOMES”. I might be even happier with that. Thanks

Hi there Steven,

Thanks for reaching out to us! I’ll help you here…

Just paste this snippet in your theme’s (or child theme’s) functions.php file:


/*
* Alters event's category archive title
*/
function tribe_alter_event_archive_titles ( $title, $depth ) {

if ( is_tax( Tribe__Events__Main::TAXONOMY ) && $depth ) {

$cat = get_queried_object();

if ( $cat->parent > 0 ) {
$subcat = $cat;
$cat = get_term( $cat->parent, Tribe__Events__Main::TAXONOMY );
}

$title = 'Upcoming ' . $cat->name;

if ( isset( $subcat ) ) {
$title .= ' › ' . $subcat->name;
}

$title .= '';

}

return $title;
}
add_filter( 'tribe_get_events_title', 'tribe_alter_event_archive_titles', 11, 2 );


I’d also like to be able to have a custom image on category and subcategory pages, so if the auction is for homes, there is an image for the page related to home auctions.

There are a couple of plugins to attach images to taxonomies (like Event Categories): Categories images, Category Featured Images, etc.

Please give that a try and let me know about it,
Best,
Nico
