Show Venue title in calendar month view

[jpirc]

hello,

I am trying to get the venue name to show up in the month calendar view, as well as on the hover box when you hover over the day. I can’t find any documentation on how to do this, so I wanted to reach out to see if you had any insights and could help out.

jpirc,
Thanks for getting in touch! Any time you’re wanting to modify any of the Events template files, you’ll want to perform a template override. Take a look at our themer’s guide, which explains how to do this.

You’ll want to override ‘views/month/single-event.php’ and ‘views/month/tooltip.php’ to make your changes. If you look in ‘single-event.php’ there’s thorough documentation on how to pass data to tooltip.php, which is a Javascript tempalte.

Once you’ve overridden those files, you’ll want to use ‘tribe_get_venue‘ to display the Venue Name.

Hopefully that points you in the right direction. Thanks! 🙂

Hi Casey,

Thank you so much for your help. I was able to set the venue up directly in the month view, but I’m stuck again with the tooltip.php file. Is there an ID that is used to call the venue in the tooltip? The stock template tags that are in the json string in single-event.php don’t reference the venue. Other than that, everything is moving smoothly. Thanks again,

J

J,
Look at the documentation in ‘views/month/single-event.php’. That will show you how to pass data to the tooltip template, as well as how to display your new variable in tooltip.php. Thanks! 🙂

I just wanted to follow up and see if you’re all set here or if you still have further questions. Just let me know if you have further questions or if I should go ahead and close out this thread. Thanks! 🙂
