How to get rid off the th from the day

[Wolfgang Leideck]

Hello.

I am using the Events Calendar Pro at the right sidebar of my front page to show the events of the current week.
Every day has a headline with following format ‘Mon 21nd’ or ‘Do 24th’. In the configuration of the Events calendar I defined following format for the week day : D j. but this won’t show in the list view at the Headlines.
So my question is, how can I get rid off the extensions ‘nd’ or ‘th’?

Thanks
Wolfgang

Hey Wolfgang,

Thanks for reaching out!

Fixing this will unfortunately require a tiny bit of custom coding at this time—head to your theme’s functions.php file and try adding this snippet of code there:


add_filter( 'tribe_events_this_week_date_format', 'tribe_remove_suffix_from_this_week_date' );

function tribe_remove_suffix_from_this_week_date( $date ) {
return 'j';
}


Let me know if this helps! 🙂

Thank you George, but the Code snippet doesn’t work.
I get following warning

Warning: call_user_func_array() expects parameter 1 to be a valid callback, function 'tribe_remove_appendage_from_this_week_date' not found or invalid function name in /homepages/13/d467711818/htdocs/hundeschule/wp-includes/plugin.php on line 235

And only the name of the day is displayed.

Hey there,

That warning is likely from a typo I fixed on the thread, but if you are seeing this over email or saw it before I updated the thread then the correction might not have been made yet. Instead of what I originally recommended, try this:


add_filter( 'tribe_events_this_week_date_format', 'tribe_remove_suffix_from_this_week_date' );

function tribe_remove_suffix_from_this_week_date( $date ) {
return 'j';
}

I hope this helps!

Sincerely,
George

Thank you George.
The code works now.

Sincerley,
Wolfgang
