How to customise community submission form

[Thomas Whitchurch]

Hi,

I am looking to change some of the text and fields for the community event submission form. Could you please advise me on the best way to do this? Also, once community event organisers log in, how do I set up their dashboard views?

Thanks!

Hello again Thomas,

I believe our themer’s guide would be a good place to start.

You can create new templates, where you change the current labels to new ones.

The edit-event.php file will be one that you will need to modify and some others depending on which labels you want to change.

Let me know if this gets you started of if you need more help.

Cheers,
Andras

G’day Thomas,

It is possible to add some more text before and after the different sections in the form. But at the moment there is no other way to easily change the labels.

You can use this code as a starting point to add more text. Just add this snippet to your functions.php file.

function my_before_title() {
echo "Text before event title";
}
add_filter('tribe_events_community_before_the_event_title', 'my_before_title');

function my_after_title() {
echo "Text after event title";
}
add_filter('tribe_events_community_after_the_event_title', 'my_after_title');

function my_before_content() {
echo "Text before event content";
}
add_filter('tribe_events_community_before_the_content', 'my_before_content');

function my_after_content() {
echo "Text after event content";
}
add_filter('tribe_events_community_after_the_content', 'my_after_content');


A possible workaround for only the labels would be creating a language file / translation file and setting the site language to that. But I believe it would be tremendous work to do that, because of all the plugins.

Does the above code help?
