Modify url structure for recurring events

[Dan]

We are using recurring events ( only with date recurrence ). We would need to tinker a bit with the permalinks, as we would need to remove the current behaviour, where /all is appended to the url and /2016-06-06/ is appended for single instances. What we would want to do is the following, assuming that the events has the slug “chicago”:

slug /events/chicago is generated and displays the single-event.php template
slug /event/chicago/all is not generated at all or redirects to /events/chicago. slugs for recurrence dates are not generated at all or redirects to /events/chicago.
We are programmers so any suggestion is welcome

I think I was able to achieve what i wanted by removing some filters


$events_pro = \Tribe__Events__Pro__Main::instance();
remove_filter( 'post_type_link', array(
$events_pro->permalink_editor,
'filter_recurring_event_permalinks',
), 10 );
remove_action( 'tribe_events_pre_get_posts', array( $events_pro, 'pre_get_posts' ) );
remove_filter( 'wp', array( $events_pro, 'detect_recurrence_redirect' ) );

Hi Dan,

Thanks for reaching out to us! And thanks for the follow-up as well, it looks like you have this under control 🙂

Just be sure to test this extensively, to see if it has some undesired side-effect. Other than that it seems to be a clean workaround!

Please let me know if there’s anything else I can do for you,
Best,
Nico
