Moving elements around within 'templates'

I would like to move elements around within a page, in particular in the single event page. Where does content-espresso_events-details.php and content-espresso_events-datetimes.php get called? I just really want to move the Description above the ticket information, and the dates/times.

Thanks!

Hi Martin,

Try this sample coding for changing the order of elements on the single event page:

It can be added to your child theme’s functions.php file (do not include the opening php tag) or a site specific plugin:

Hello again Martin,

As of Event Espresso 4.8.21, there is a custom display re-order option available in the WordPress dashboard.

Backup your WordPress and update your software

You can see the change log for Event Espresso 4 here:

Remove existing filters for adjusting the order

If you have used some of the suggested filters to adjust the order of your event elements, then you’ll want to first remove those from your website and they may have been added to your child theme’s functions.php file or a site specific plugin.

Set a custom order through the Templates screen

Afterwards, go to your WP dashboard (WP-admin) –> Event Espresso –> Events –> Templates. The Use Custom Display Order options in the Templates screen can be used to reorder the events elements on the single event page as well as the events listing page.

Again, be sure that any of the filters for adjusting the order have been removed from your site specific plugin or your child theme’s functions.php file before turning on the template reorder option. Otherwise, you may see duplicate content.

Thanks


Lorenzo
