    SO SO SO SO SO CLOSE. Thank you.
    So now I’ve tried to move the website link up using this code:
    ” target=”_blank”>Register Now!

    But it links not to the event website as defined in the event, but rather to the current Events Calendar page. (So, in other words, the “website” field in the event is filled in with “www.ABC.com” and the event page in MY site is “www.XYZ.com”, the link is sending to XYZ.)

    See it in dis-action here: http://fwatest.org/event/ein-feb-brew-ary-fest/

    I know it’s my relative lack of PHP experience (I’m not a total novice, but I’m certainly a beginner) that’s making this harder than it has to be, but I really appreciate your help.

    Almost!!
    How can remove it from the place where it WANTS to display? I know I can edit the meta.php file, but I fear that will be replaced when I run an update. And I don’t see in your support where to save a new meta.php file in my theme.

    Thanks!

    Thanks for your response, but I’d already done what you suggested, and it’s not what I need.

    I have already created the new single-event.php file in my theme directory. That’s fine. What I need to “get inside” is this area:
    <?php echo tribe_get_meta_group( ‘tribe_event_group_custom_meta’ );?>

    If you look at the link I gave in my first post, you’ll see there is one “standard” field – website – and one custom field – non-member-price – both of which I need to remove from that meta area. I want to make the link into a “register now” button and move the non-member price up beside the member price in the heading area. (In fact, you can see that I’ve already customized this file by having it display “Member Cost:” in the heading area.)

    Thanks for your assistance!

    This article has been very helpful, but I don’t see that there’s a clear answer to Art’s very specific question: how do you display a single element from the meta box in a different part of the template?

    So instead of moving the whole meta area around, you’re leaving 90% of it where it is but removing one element (the website link) elsewhere in the template.

    Thank you!

    I used the pastebin code, and it worked like a charm! (http://staging.m6d.com/events)
    Now it feels like a part of the News & Events section. Thank you!

    Thanks for the response.

    I am using a plugin called Widget Logic (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/widget-logic/). It allows me to have only a single template and just drag a bunch of widgets into the sidebar on the widgets page, then by entering a simple conditional (e.g. “is_page(array(‘slug’,id#))” wherein you can enter EITHER the page’s title from the permalink or its ID number.

    I have a custom navigation set up for the News & Events section of the site (http://staging.m6d.com), but I don’t know what to enter for the events page. When I tried using “events,” it didn’t work. I also tried “events/month” and “month”.

    I am not an advanced user. I am a designer who’s found himself developing sites, and this client really wanted a visual calendar. I like your solution, but it’s important to me that it not feel like they’ve left the News & Events “section” of the site.

    Thanks!
