I have a customised list-widget.php file to which I have added the line
\n<?php echo tribe_events_get_the_excerpt() ?><\/code>
\nin order to display extract text.<\/p>\n

The full segment code is as follows<\/p>\n

\t\t<div class="<?php tribe_events_event_classes() ?>">\t\n\t\t\t<?php club_tribe_events_list_the_date_headers() ?>\t    \n\t\t\t<?php tribe_get_template_part( 'pro\/widgets\/modules\/single-event', null, $instance ) ?>\n\t\t\t<?php echo tribe_events_get_the_excerpt() ?>\n\t\t<\/div><\/code><\/pre>\n
Below you can see how this looks and how I want it to be changed..<\/p>\n
\"event<\/p>\n
Also – is there a way of making the excerpt return nothing if there is no text in the actual ‘excerpt’ field? At present it takes rather too long a chunk of text from the main text if there is nothing in the field.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-995309","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\ncustomising [tribe_event_list] shortcode -<\/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\/customising-tribe_event_list-shortcode\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"customising [tribe_event_list] shortcode -\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"I have a customised list-widget.php file to which I have added the line <?php echo tribe_events_get_the_excerpt() ?> in order to display extract text.
