Currently I use the Table Template feature to list upcoming events which display the Event, Date and “Register,” link in 3 separate columns:
[ESPRESSO_EVENTS_TABLE_TEMPLATE order_by=”start_date” limit=”3″ category_slug=”#” category_filter=”false” table_search=”false”]
I do like this feature but many of our events have multiple “available tickets” within that Event title but only the next ticket available is shown in the table. It is unclear that when you click “register,” you will have access to all of the tickets for that title.
What I would like to know is how to remove the “date” column as to only show the event title and register button.
I would also like to know if it is possible to change the link verbiage from “Register” to something else of my choosing.

Hello,
If you use this parameter:
template_file=espresso-events-table-template-toggle.template.php
…then the layout will change to look like this without the datetime:
https://eventespresso.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/ee4-events-table-toggle2.jpg
Also, there is a parameter to change the text for the register link:
reg_button_text=’Your custom link text’
So you could update your shortcode to this and update the button text:
[ESPRESSO_EVENTS_TABLE_TEMPLATE order_by=start_date limit=3 category_filter=false table_search=false template_file=espresso-events-table-template-toggle.template.php reg_button_text=’Your custom link text’]

Thank you, this is a bit better. One more thing however. I am not able to figure out where to enter the content for “description:”
When you click one event in the table it populates with “Venue,” “Date,” and “Description.” Having the most upcoming Date displayed is not ideal as we have many other date options within the registration page itself. To help off set this confusion I want enter “Click Register to see all dates” in the “description” area.
I have tried using the Categories option and also “excerpt” while editing the event.

Hi Eleanor,
The description comes from the event description which is setup in the event editor.
That is the content area that appears after the event title and above the venue selector within the event editor.
