Disable Archives

[James]

Is there any way to disable the Events post type from having archives?

I’ve tried the following, but it hasn’t worked.
// Remove Events Archive
add_filter( 'register_post_type_args', 'remove_events_archive' , 9999999999999999999, 2 );

function remove_events_archive( $args, $post_type ){

// Do not filter any other post type
if ( 'tribe_events' !== $post_type ) {

// Give other post_types their original arguments
return $args;

}

$args['has_archive'] = false;
// Give the custom-css-js post type it's arguments
return $args;

}

We don’t use the archive page, and lot’s of pages are getting crawled for each day (/event/2016-05-28 etc).

Howdy James,

That should be pretty doable. If you run the following code once it will update our plugin telling it that all views (archives) are not used:

tribe_update_option( 'tribeEnableViews', array() );

And that should be it!

Note: You’ll notice that in WP-Admin > Events > Settings > Display all views will now be deselected. If you ever reselect a view and hit save, it will show up again. However if you subsequently need to deselect all views you will need to run that code once more to deselect them, as ordinarily you are prevented from hiding the last remaining view.

Did that do what you wanted?

Cheers!

That seems to have done the trick.

Thank you very much 🙂
