Change "Nothing Found" text for events page when there are no upcoming events

I have been digging through old forum posts (including https://eventespresso.com/topic/changing-the-default-no-events-message/) but in trying to follow these instructions the file paths and templates seem to have changed. Can you provide confirmation on whether this is the correct set of instructions to follow or if there is an update to either the files or the proper way to go about making these changes?

I am currently running 4.6.92 of EE.

If I just create a content-noevent.php file as the link above suggests, what do I put in that php file? I cannot find my theme’s content-none.php file to use as a base so I wasn’t sure what to even include.

Thanks for any help you are able to provide!

Hi there,

The location of the “Nothing Found” text is somewhere within your theme’s files. If your theme has an archive.php template file that would be the first place to look.

As an example, the “twentyseventeen” theme has this code near the end of its archive.php template:

else :
  get_template_part( 'template-parts/post/content', 'none' );
endif; ?>

So in this example, the location of the “Nothing Found” text will be in
/template-parts/post/content-none.php.

Thanks Josh!

If I wanted to copy the EE template and make my own so that it doesn’t default to the archives page, which template would I need to edit. They reference the tables template in the link I provided but I can’t seem to find anything remotely close to that in my files.

Thanks so much!

Hi,

You’d actually make a copy of your theme’s archive.php template and put the copy into a child theme. Then you can make edits to that template.
