How can I remove fields from being displayed?

[Barbara Spence]

Is there’s a way to remove the below unnecessary repetitive text that gets posted to recurring events. Takes up valuable space.

|Recurring Event (See all)
Every 2 weeks on Friday until December 11, 2014

Default to (check) Venue and uncheck City/State “San Antonio TX” … most if not all of our meetings/events are in SA. If not, then we’ll make that clear in the event notice we post to the calendar.

When an individual clicks on “View more…” to see more events, can the default view be a calendar vs list? Month view is preferable.

Removing unnecessary repetitive text displayed on homepage will allow room to display at least 6 upcoming SATP events.

Event posting view I would like to see follows below …

Upcoming Events

From this:

Group 1 Meeting
August 11 @ 6:30 pm -8:00 pm
|Recurring Event (See all)
Every 2 weeks on Monday until December 15, 2014
San Antonio TX
To this:

Group 1 Meeting
August 11 @ 6:30 pm -8:00 pm
Longhorn Cafe – Rittiman

Hello granpasmurf,

You should be able to target and remove unwanted content with CSS, I believe that would be the easiest way. Using Dev Tools you can select the piece you don’t want and then add a display:none; rule to your CSS.

Otherwise, if you check out our Themer’s Guide, you could probably make a template override to display what you want.

If you give me more specifics (links and screenshots), I may be able to help you out more. Here are some excellent tools for uploading some screenshots!

Does this make sense? Let me know if this doesn’t work for you.

Cheers!

Look at te attached screenshot. URL is:http://sanantonioteaparty.us/
We would like to not display the “recurring” data.
Sorry, I looked into CSS stylesheet and could not find the element.
Thanks for your help, Casey.

Hello granpasmurf,

I believe this is what you are looking for:

.recurringinfo { display: none; }

Typically, don’t change the theme or plugin’s css files, they will be overwritten on updates. Use overriding css files, or use plugins like http://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-custom-css/ to add css to your site. If you check out our Themer’s Guide, you could probably make a template override to display what you want.

Does this make sense? Let me know if this doesn’t work for you.

Cheers!

Thanks Casey,
I installed the plugin, simple-custom-css and added your reference code,
.recurringinfo { display: none; }
Thanks for your help.
