We’re looking to use our calendar as an industry resource so that people will link to the page as well as visit it for upcoming events. I use SEO Pressor Connect to SEO optimise my site pages which includes things like the tagging, metadata, social cards and opening pages up to Schema. This works fine for all pages on my site, but it seems that Event Calendar Pro is not treated like a regular page or post on WordPress and so it is not at all apparent how SEO Pressor can access the page to add the meta data.
I’ve looked through all the options in Event Calendar Pro and cannot see any way to add a meta description for my calendar for search engines or any other data. Is this at all feasible ?
Hi James. Thanks for your detailed question.
At this time, our main events calendar page (typically at yoursite.com/events/ unless you customize the URL) is actually a WordPress custom post type archive for the tribe_events post type.
In the not-too-distant future, all our calendar views will be able to be shortcode-ized, which will allow you to have both /events but also /a-page-with-our-shortcodes.
At this time, if you want to insert anything (such as <meta> tags) into the <head> of the post type archive views, you could hook into wp_head when is_post_type_archive( ‘tribe_events’ ) is true. For single event pages you could use the is_singular( ‘tribe_events’ ) conditional.
I hope this helps. Please let me know if you have any follow-up questions on this topic.
Hey there! This thread has been pretty quiet for the last three weeks, so we’re going to go ahead and close it to avoid confusion with other topics. If you’re still looking for help with this, please do open a new thread, reference this one and we’d be more than happy to continue the conversation over there.
Thanks so much!
