Hello,
How can I change the page title name for events?
Right now they say “The Blog” — so I turned off their page titles.
I prefer to have the event name be the title.
Thank you for the help.

Hi Chris,
This usually involves making edits to the WordPress theme, that’s what’s adding “The Blog” to the title. To be clear though, are you asking about the <title> tag within the html, or the title that’s displayed on the web page (usually wrapped in an h1 or h2 tag)?

As your using theme X I’m assuming your referring to the ‘landmark’ – http://take.ms/KuN9e
It’s a feature of X to display the blog title if you are on a single post and that post is not an x portfolio item – http://take.ms/yG9dX
You would need to check with them as to why they do that.
To fix this for EE events you will need to setup the Theme X child theme:
https://community.theme.co/kb/how-to-setup-child-themes/
Then within your child theme override the \framework\views\renew\_landmark-header.php
and add something like this:
<?php elseif ( function_exists( 'is_espresso_event' ) && ( is_espresso_event() || is_espresso_venue() ) ): ?>
<h1 class="h-landmark"><span><?php echo the_title(); ?></span></h1>
Between the two conditionals above to output the event title for EE events.
However note that doing so displays the event name twice – http://take.ms/v0ZMw

Hello Josh,
Thank you for the help.
On individual Events and Venue pages, the Page Title shows as “The Blog.”
Whereas, respectively it should read, “Events.” and Venues.”
These pages are generated dynamically and so I cannot edit them to change the titles.
I use the X-Theme, which allows me to turn off page titles on a page by page basis–but again, these pages are dynamically generated so I cannot do that.
I’ve turned off page titles site-wide, and instead now, I’m going to use CSS to hide the page titles on these two pages. Not good.
Screenshot of the issue.

(it’s the same for events also)
Thank you for the help.

Hi Chris,
Please see my reply above on how you can fix this.
You can change the output for those pages if preferred but with the above it will use the_title.
