Two questions on Posterboard AND Event details on recurring events

[Gillian Allmark]

How do I remove the event end time on posterboard? I just want events to show the start time…

Also, at the bottom of my events on posterboard, there is a grey button saying ‘Loading…’, but all of the events are showing. Can this be removed? I’m worried it is going to look confusing for people.

Finally, can I remove the line ‘This event is running from [date] until [date]. It is next occurring on October [date]’ on event details for recurring events?

Many thanks

Hi Gillian,

Yes you can, first you need to define the placeholder you’ll use in the template (you’ll need to add that in a custom plugin or theme’s functions.php):

add_filter( 'eventorganiser_posterboard_item', function( $event ) {
      $event['event_start_time'] = eo_get_the_start( get_option( 'time_format' ) );
      return $event;
} );

then, you’ll want to copy the template event-organiser-posterbard/templates/single-event-board-item.html into your theme and replace event_range in this line with event_start_time

The fact that the ‘loading’ doesn’t automatically disappear is a bug with the 3.0.0 release (they’ll be an update later today).

Regarding the This event is running from line. Yes simply copy the event-organiser/templates/event-meta-event-single.php template into your theme and edit it there. You’ll want to remove this line: https://github.com/stephenharris/Event-Organiser/blob/8eeceede8aa55a9dbf9fbd48e2c0809e70869aa0/templates/event-meta-event-single.php#L41

Thanks Stephen

I’m new to editing templates etc but i’ve had a go – when you say copy ‘into your theme’, where do you mean? I have followed your instructions – made a functionality plugin and added code to that first, and then and put both the other copied files in wp-content/themes/spacious-pro/page-templates but neither have worked! Am I copying them to the wrong place?

Thanks – sorry if these are very basic questions!

The template files should go into the root of your theme.

wp-content/themes/spacious-pro/single-event-board-item.html
wp-content/themes/spacious-pro/event-meta-event-single.php

The snippet should go in a utility plug-in your plugins directory or you can put it in your theme’s functions.php

Thanks so much – all sorted 🙂
