Hide Tags & Category info from Events display

[Zachary]

An event page shows all the tags for that event. I have lots of tags for my events and this looks very bad. I want it to go – (my website) > Events Listings > Event Name

Thanks!

Hi Zachary,

This is definitely possible!

Please check out our Themer’s Guide first of all, which describes how to safely override and customize our plugin templates.

From there you will probably be interested in our modules/meta/details.php template – simply remove the following code:

<?php
echo tribe_get_event_categories(
	get_the_id(), array(
		'before'       => '',
		'sep'          => ', ',
		'after'        => '',
		'label'        => null, // An appropriate plural/singular label will be provided
		'label_before' => '<dt>',
		'label_after'  => '</dt>',
		'wrap_before'  => '<dd class="tribe-events-event-categories">',
		'wrap_after'   => '</dd>'
	)
);
?>

<?php echo tribe_meta_event_tags( __( 'Event Tags:', 'tribe-events-calendar' ), ', ', false ) ?>

Does that help?

Oh, I see. That appears to be generated by your theme rather than our plugin – you can bear this idea out by temporarily switching to a default theme.

What I’d recommend is checking in with the theme author to figure out how it might be disabled. By using a simple conditional statement it should be possible to turn it off in respect of single event pages only, ie:

if ( ! is_singular( TribeEvents::POSTTYPE ) ) {
    /* Theme code responsible for listing tags */
}

Definitely feel free to share the above with the theme vendor (or just link to this forum topic) – but they will be best placed to direct you to the source of the tag listing code.
