The tutorial to add events to RSS feeds (https:\/\/theeventscalendar.com\/how-to-add-events-to-your-rss-feed\/) could use one improvement. Posting to the forum because comments on that page are closed.<\/p>\n

As written, the code to add event date to your RSS feed will add a start date to event posts (as desired), but also adds a start date to regular posts, which makes no sense. Clearly tribe_get_start_date() returns now when it is not an event post.<\/p>\n

I suggest you modify the tutorial and encapsulate the with the conditional “if (tribe_is_event())”. That should remove the nonsensical event dates on regular posts<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-80682","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\nRSS tutuorial code improvement -<\/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\/rss-tutuorial-code-improvement\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"RSS tutuorial code improvement -\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The tutorial to add events to RSS feeds (https:\/\/theeventscalendar.com\/how-to-add-events-to-your-rss-feed\/) could use one improvement.
