SEO and Event List Heading

[Jimmy]

Hi I cant see a way to change the default title on the events page it defaults to “Upcoming Events” which is out of context for the website in question.
Also I need to change the default page title and meta tag content. How can I achieve this best please?

Hi, Jimmy.

Please reference https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/altering-or-removing-titles-on-calendar-views/ and let me know if you have any follow-up questions on this topic. If you do, please provide links and/or annotated screenshots.

Thanks.

Hi this answer was very helpful thanks Cliff it addresses many small problems. It doesn’t address the meta description or page title however on the main listing. In fact I cant find any meta description in the page at all and the page title is always the same as the main page heading.

Update: I tried using Yoast SEO Plugin to achieve the correct page title and meta description which it achieved successfully using this method https://theeventscalendar.com/support/forums/topic/seo-meta-description-events-page/
However now the event listing page and detail event pages are showing a paragraph of text above the main content below the header and I have switched to the all in one seo plugin but its not working at all for me.

Have I missed something?

I have sorted this by finding the spurious excerpt which was being echoed by the code in my theme, the SEO is now working as intended.

Jimmy, I’m sorry this took much of your time, but I’m glad you’re all sorted now. Thanks for the updates. Have a good weekend.
