On a page called classes i’ve used the EVENT_ESPRESSO shortcode to show the ‘events’. Under General Settings>Templates I’ve changed ‘display description’ to none, thinking that would removed the descriptions on the events on the Classes page. But the descriptions are still showing up. Is there a way to remove the descriptions?

Hi the [ESPRESSO_EVENTS] shortcode is needed for registrations to work so I don’t recommend making any changes to it:

Try adjusting the template settings in WP-admin –> Event Espresso –> Template settings.

Alternatively, use the event list shortcode and hide the unwanted content using CSS:

.page-id-123 .event-desc {display:none}

The example above can be added to your child theme’s stylesheet or through a plugin like Reaktiv CSS builder or My Custom CSS. Be sure to also update 123 to the actual page id. If you view the source of the page in your web browser then you’ll see it.
