Change in format for posted event

Hi,
When EE posts and event when an event is created (if so desired), it puts the link to the map and the register buttons at the top of the posting. I would like them at the bottom of the posting. Is there some (relatively easy) way to change this behavior?

I’m using WP 4.0, EE3. Installation is fairly new but operating properly. Site link is Incose Chesapeake Chapter Registration

You can see a post formatted the way I would like on the home page.

Thanks,
Oren

Hi Oren,

You can relocate it by using this code snippet:

It can be added to your child theme’s functions.php file or a site specific plugin:

Hi Lorenzo,
Thanks for the unbelievably quick response (you guys are really great at support!)
I looked at the snippet and it indicated it was for EE4.3 or greater. I’m using EE3. Before I dive in, will this code work for me?

It will not work for Event Espresso 3.

Could you post a link so we can see how it is displayed?

Lorenzo,
Same link as in the first post:
http://www.incose-cc.org Both events show were modified by hand by me to make the desired appearance. Of course, when I update the event, I have to tinker with the event posting again. I’d certainly prefer that to be automated.

Hi,

You can set it to not update the post when you edit the event by setting that option to No:

Then your initial post design should be preserved.

Hi,
I realized that option and will certainly use it. The brings us back to the original question. Can I make the generated event postig have the map and register buttons on the bottom instead of the top? I can change the code with each posting, but I’d prefer EE does the lifting.

Hi,

There isn’t an option to change that as it is part of the core plugin.

Just FYI,
I figured out where to patch the code to create the desired output. Very minor changes. Thanks for you help.
