How to change the "Upcoming Events" word to something else.

[Jaeden Tan]

I like to change the default text from “Upcoming Events” to “Upcoming Sales Events”.

Would it be possible to share with me which file contains this text? Thanks!

Hi Jaeden,

Thanks for reaching out!

We actually have an article with instructions on changing strings around your site. Alternatively, you could use the tribe_get_events_title filter, found in wp-content/plugins/the-events-calendar/src/functions/template-tags/loop.php, to change the $title string. Note that you will not want to edit that file directly, as doing so will result in your changes being lost the next time the plugin is updated.

Let me know if you have any questions!

Thanks,

Jennifer

Hi Jennifer,

Thanks for your response. It helped alot. If you dont mind, may i ask another question.

Like to know in which file is the logic of the title for category pages located.

I would like to remove the front portion of the text before the category title. But i cant seem to find this logic. Apperciate if you can point me in the direction of which file.

Cheers,
J

Hi Jaeden,

I’m glad that helped!

The page title is actually coming from the tribe_get_events_title function found in wp-content/plugins/the-events-calendar/src/functions/template-tags/loop.php. Note that this isn’t one of the files you can copy over into your theme, and you don’t want to edit it directly as your changes will be erased with future plugin updates. However, you can use the tribe_get_events_title filter to adjust the title. So you could do something like:

function tribe_change_category_page_title( $title ) {
global $post;
if ( tribe_is_event_category( $post->ID ) ) {
$cat = get_queried_object();
$title = $cat->name;
return $title;
} else {
return $title;
}
}
add_filter( 'tribe_get_events_title', 'tribe_change_category_page_title' );

You can add that to the functions.php file of your child theme. Let me know if that helps!

Thanks,

Jennifer
