Good evening Kymiel and welcome back!

Thank you for reaching out to us.
I would love to help you with this topic.

Just to confirm, when you are talking about the short description column, I take it you are referring to:

Friday, March 17th 2017 from 4pm – 6pm Our Meet & Greet Opening Reception will feature hors d’oeuvres, networking opportunities, unlimited drinks, set in an artistic background for your muse and enjoyment. Surprise guests will definitely be in the building for your delight and entertainment.

Can you confirm or perhaps just point out which other section of that page you would like to move if that is not the case.

Either way, the good news is that you can move pretty much anything you want around using our plugins. In fact, we have built them to allow that.

Furthermore, Avada already uses this extensively.
These changes are called template overrides. They let you tweak any view exactly to your liking.

To do that, I would recommend 2 things:

1. Make sure you are using a child theme (so that your changes do not get overwritten when you update Avada)
2. You might want to read our Themer’s guide to get a sense of how that works.

From there, you simply need to locate the file you want to change, edit it and place it in its proper path in your Child theme’s /tribe-events/ folder.

Let me know how that goes.

Best regards,
Geoff B.

1) Yes that is the field I am referring to. THey are empty on the ticket portion (the rsvp column can remain as is.

I have read the themers guide but it was not clear to me on how to follow, so I don’t have a child theme. Even with that being said, I still don’t understand how to edit the ticket portion because I don’t see any code when I go to the code view of the page. So how would I remove this additional row. I don’t mind it being removed permanently in the main avada theme.

Good evening Kymiel,

Thank you for writing back.

To clarify, here’s a summary of what you need to do:

1. Head over to /wp-content/plugins/event-tickets-plus/src/views/wootickets/tickets.php
2. Download a copy of that file and take a look starting at line 35The fields you want to move is labeled tickets_description .
   echo '

   ‘ . $ticket->description . ”;
   You can move that line elsewhere in the table or even remove it completely.

3. Save a copy of that modified file and save it under /wp-content/themes/Avada-child/tribe-events/wootickets/tickets.php
4. This edited file will override the normal display

It will also work if you do that in your parent Avada theme, but this will get overwritten during your next Avada update.

The other thing you could do is control that box with CSS (#tribe-events-content table.tribe-events-tickets td.quantity)

Let me know if that helps.

Have a great day!

Geoff B.
