Hi guys, possibly a silly question but I’m really not sure how you are supposed to manage events that have expired. Of course, Google indexes our events (as we want) so there are times when someone will click on an event that is appearing in Google search results that has clearly expired. Seems to be there are two results:<\/p>\n

1. When they go to event that has expired there is some very small text that says ” This event has passed” (refer image). How or where can this be customised to (A) make it stand out more and (B) ideally offer them a link to search for more events. E.g. To search for the latest events click here. <\/p>\n

2. The other option would just be to direct the click to the main calendar. E.g. For Expired events automatically redirect people to the Events Calendar month or list view or perhaps an URL\/Page you choose when you can customise a message however you want. Don’t see this option anywhere? Is this possible? What is best practice?<\/p>\n

Look forward to your help. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1628090","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\nExpired Events - How to configure -<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/theeventscalendar.com\/support\/forums\/topic\/expired-events-how-to-configure\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Expired Events - How to configure -\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Hi guys, possibly a silly question but I’m really not sure how you are supposed to manage events that have expired.
