[tribe_events_list] -> we need to get also excerpt/content

[Alvise Nicoletti]

Hi !

In the shortcode [tribe_events_list],
there seem to be no way to get out event short text with “read more” link.

Can you confirm ?
We need that !

Hi Alvise,

Thanks for reaching out here!

Unfortunately by default, that shortcode does not have an excerpt available.

You can try using the following shortcode instead, which does include an excerpt:
[tribe_events view="list"]

Let me know if that helps!

 

Thanks,

Jaime

[tribe_events view=”list”] it’s ugly 🙁

I mean, it’s nice but have too many informations and small images.

We would like to have an output exactly like [tribe_events_list] but with excerpt …

[Jaime Marchwinski]

Hi Alvise,

In that case, you can try to customize [tribe_events_list] yourself and add in the excerpt.

That shortcode’s attributes come from /wp-content/plugins/events-calendar-pro/src/Tribe/Shortcodes/Events_List.php

And then it runs PRO’s Event List Widget output, which is from /wp-content/plugins/events-calendar-pro/src/Tribe/Advanced_List_Widget.php

As far as the template that gets used, that’s at /wp-content/plugins/events-calendar-pro/src/views/pro/widgets/list-widget.php, which is able to be overridden via our Themer’s Guide.

If this functionality is a requirement for your intended project, I’d suggest that a third-party developer would be the best way to make this feature happen on a short timeline. ? We maintain a list of developers who work with our plugins on our Knowledgebase here:

Let me know how that goes and if you have any other questions along the way!

 

Thanks,

Jaime
