Hello,

I currently have a schedule page with a lot of events at https://classicalhatayoga.com/schedule/

It looks very cluttered and I would like less detail to show up on this page.
1. I would like to move the excerpt to be hidden on this page and be visible on the detailed registration page – at https://classicalhatayoga.com/events/2016-july-angamardana-bellevue/
2. Also want the excerpt to be visible at the top of the registration form page at https://classicalhatayoga.com/registration-checkout/#checkout
3. For programs spread over multiple sessions and dates is there a way to just have the start and end date listed on the event listing page — so on this page https://classicalhatayoga.com/schedule/ — instead of 5 dates and times listed for the 1st event is there a way to just have it display Thursday July 28 – Sunday July 31, August 6?
4. Is there a way to hide the ticket on the event listing page — so this is hidden on event listing page “(must attend all 5 sessions) $240.00 (USD ” but continues to appear on details registration page and at the top of the registration form page?

Thanks,
Charu

Hello Charu,

Here is feedback on your questions:

1) There is a display option to turn that off in the template settings page. Go to Event Espresso –> Templates and look for Display description and turn that off: https://cl.ly/442p1J1s2306

2) Relocate the event excerpt information to the description for a ticket. It can be found by clicking on the gear or advanced icon in the ticket selector editor which appears about mid-way down on the event editor screen. Then that information will appear there on the registration checkout page.

Here is an example: https://cl.ly/3W1K2P1Y0a0f

3) Each date will be shown for the event.

4) You are using the pricing option title/name for that information so you can use some CSS to hide it:

.page-id-695 td.tckt-slctr-tbl-td-name { visibility: hidden; }

However, I would move that information to the event description and bold it or highlight it and then give the ticket/pricing options and actual name.

This is because Event Espresso sends the transaction description in this format:

Name of ticket for name of event

Using one of your events as an example, the transaction description (e.g. the information shown during a PayPal payment) will be this:

(must attend all 3 sessions) for October 2016 – Event Name

Thanks for the details Lorenzo.

I’ve got everything working except one thing — I still don’t see the description on the registration detail page at https://classicalhatayoga.com/events/2016-july-angamardana-bellevue/ . It shows up as I wanted on the top of the registration form when I click on register.

Is there some custom css required for this?

Thanks,
Charu

Is there some custom css required for this?

The content is not actually loading on the page so we can’t use CSS to display it.

If you go to Event Espresso -> Events -> Templates.

At the bottom of those settings you’ll find ‘Show Ticket Details?’.

If you currently have that set to No, you’ll need to switch that to Yes and save the settings, EE will then load the ticket description on the ticket selector.
