Hi,
On the events table list I’d like to change the Name of the ‘Event’ column to ‘Class’ and the ‘Date’ heading to ‘Date of First Lesson’.

Can I do this with a custom function?

Thank you!

Hi there,

I’m assuming this is using the event table template, correct? – https://eventespresso.com/product/eea-events-table-view-template/

If so you can translate those strings with a custom function but you’ll need a little hoop-jumping to only translate it on that page.

An easier method for that table will be to copy the template used for the table into a child theme and alter the string in the template, EE will then use a copy of the template from your theme in place of the original.

So if you copy eea-events-table-template\templates\espresso-events-table-template.template.php into your theme and change line 45 from:

<th class="th-group"><?php _e('Event','event_espresso'); ?></th>

to

<th class="th-group"><?php _e('Class','event_espresso'); ?></th>

and line 49, from:

<th class="th-group"><?php _e('Date','event_espresso'); ?></th>

to

<th class="th-group"><?php _e('Date of First Lesson','event_espresso'); ?></th>

That will change the output for you.

Yes, that’s the one, apologies! That worked perfectly, thank you very much!
