Navigation on embedded calendar change page title

[Jesse]

I have an embedded month view calendar on one of my pages. When you navigate to the previous or next month, the <title> attribute for the page (displayed in the browser tab) is changing from the default one set by WordPress to “Events for <month> <year> – <sitename>”.

Is there a way to disable this behavior?

[Jesse]

I couldn’t find a way to disable this so I just added some JavaScript to prevent it from happening. Code below for anyone curious.

(function () {
    var lastTitle = undefined;
    function checkTitle() {
        if (lastTitle != document.title) {
            document.title = 'My Desired Title';
            lastTitle = document.title;
        }
    setTimeout(checkTitle, 100);
    };
    checkTitle();
})();

Good afternoon Jesse and welcome to the Events Calendar Support forum!

Thank you for reaching out to us.

Kudos on coming up with that change via JavaScript AND for sharing it for everybody’s benefit!

I have shared it with our code Ninjas and I believe this is a legit bug.

Alas, I cannot guarantee when it will be fixed, as it’s in the development team’s hands now.
They need to assign it, code it, test it, and schedule it for release.

The good news is that you will be contacted as soon as a fix is available.
Thank you for your patience as we see this through.

Best regards,
Geoff B.
