ParticipantYes, and no. I already had that file out, blinking at the code that links the header, and added the comments where my “more” edit will be — but since I’m a photographer and graphic designer, I just copy & modify my php, and don’t really know how to write the code from scratch. I was hoping you would write exactly line of php I would place under the “the_excerpt” code to link to the whole description. And once you do, I’ll think, geez, so simple I should have figured it out… thank you!

ParticipantThanks Rob,
I’m using the manual excerpt, because I want a one-paragraph summary of the whole 8-paragraph event. There doesn’t seem to be a “read more” to show up for a manual excerpt.
Thanks,Lynn
ParticipantThanks, Jonah,
That worked (for thesis adding the CODE from that link into my custom_functions.php file). I know the choices could be infinite and you can’t do it all, but hopefully by the next update, we’ll have a way to enable or disable the balloons. (My client thought that the balloons held all the information on an event, and didn’t know to click on the event name to get the whole description and photos. They cater to an older crowd, so the fancier things get, the more their visitors get confused.) Thanks.Lynn
ParticipantI removed all previous & next (probably removes them for the entire site, not just the events section) by putting into the custom.css file for thesis:
.custom .prev_next p {
display: none;
}
What is the events page specific template name so I could specify removing previous and next links just for events pages single display? Thanks.Lynn
ParticipantDoes this hack still work for 2.0.4? I’m finding it’s not working, or is it that I’m using Thesis, and Thesis is adding the previous and next links? Previous & next links use the datestamp on when the event is added to the calender, not in order according to event date, very confusing for the visitor to the site. I’d rather remove the previous & next links altogether. How can that be done now? Thanks!

ParticipantYes, another question:
Can I, in a similar way that we changed the events page title above, change the display word “Venue” to something else more appropriate for my client’s use? Seems like this may help other people, too, to be able to use the expanded functionality you’ve built into the “Venue” idea, but just re-label it, to say “Room” or “Location” or “Arena” or “Region” or whatever one may need.Lynn
ParticipantThank you, Rob! Yes, that worked. I put it in my custom_functions.php file of my theme. I know you can’t update all parts of the plugin and the help all at the same time, and I appreciate that you all are keeping up with your forum to help!

ParticipantIn the FAQ, you recommend just deleting the header on the calendar page to remove instead of change the “Calendar of Events” text. here:
———
Can I remove the “Calendar of Events” heading on the events list page?You can. The best and easiest way at this point is to do so using CSS, by using display:none. That’ll at first, get rid of ALL page headings. But you can specifically target the title only on certain pages (like the Events page) by using this code:
.tribe_events .entry-header {
display: none;
}
That will remove the calendar header but keep the headings for individual events.
——-That doesn’t work, in the events.css file, or a custom.css file of my theme. Could you be more specific about implementing this code? I was hoping it would, then I make a workaround by adding an H2 tag with the text I do want, in the spot on the Calendar settings page for HTML above the listings.
And, now in this thread you’re suggesting that we change the English translation. I’m not seeing any confirmation in this thread that that works either.
Sorry to be so abrupt; I’m frustrated that I’ve spent 2 hours trying to change one stupid thing on this calendar.
