RSS feed start date

[Fran]

I’m trying to use MailChimp to send a list of upcoming events to my subscribers. I added the code on this page: https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/customize-rss-feed/ to include the start and end date in the feed, but it shows the author and the start date. I don’t care about the end date, but how do I get rid of the Author? I don’t see anything in the code that indicates the author field. Also, can I add the event description (if there is one)?

Thanks!

Hi Fran,

WordPress’s RSS feeds include the author field by default – it’s not something we add or generate on our side.

I’m afraid to say, it’s easier to add new elements that to strip out certain hardcoded existing elements – making removal of the author field a fairly advanced customization.

Also, can I add the event description (if there is one)?

This is included as standard 🙂

When I visit your site I don’t see any events with descriptions, though, which is probably why they are currently absent from the feed.

I hope that helps!

You’re welcome.

As this has been marked ‘resolved’ I’ll go ahead and close the topic, but of course please feel free to post new support topics as needed should anything else arise that we might be able to help with.

Thanks again!
