hi there,<\/p>\n

In another (closed) discussion I saw Barry saying the following on getting a short country format:
\n“I don\u2019t believe there are any specific filters for that template tag; you could use tribe_get_event_meta but that\u2019s further upstream.
\nDo note however that tribe_get_country() returns its output rather than echoing it, so you could easily filter it yourself by creating a new template tag of your own which converts tribe_get_country()\u2019s output to an abbreviated format (whether that\u2019s ISO 3166 or some other scheme).”<\/p>\n

I was wondering if someone could explain me how to do this?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-46823","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\nShort Country format -<\/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\/short-country-format-2\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Short Country format -\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"hi there, In another (closed) discussion I saw Barry saying the following on getting a short country format: “I don\u2019t believe there are any specific filters for that template tag; you could use tribe_get_event_meta but that\u2019s further upstream.
