Hey there,
I have a night sky photography workshop, and it all depends on the weather and clear sky. I have a few dates that the light would be perfect and these are the candid dates. I want to set the date for the workshop as “To Be Announced”. Is it possible?

Thanks a lot

Hi there,

We don’t currently have a ‘to be announced’ feature within Event Espresso, but you could add some details into the event content and hide the datetimes for that specific event on the front end.

Would that work?

You could also then create a custom message template for the event that does no include any date information (or additional details on the ‘provisional’ dates you are looking to use if that works).

May I ask, after registration how do you intend on announcing the actual date to the registrants?

Hey Tony,

Thank you so much for the answers.
I added text in the event’s details regarding the candidate dates, and will inform participants through messages one or two days before the event (depends on the weather). So, Participants know that there are four dates that we are going to pick up one as weather permits.

How can I hide the date from the front end?

Cheers,
Ted

You use some CSS specific for that event, if you can post a link to the event I’ll give you an example.

Note you can mark your reply private so only EE staff can view it if preferred.

Hey Tony,
Thank you for your super fast respond. I haven’t posted the event yet and was waiting for the answer.
Is it possible for you to give me the sample CSS and later I change the parts that need to be changed to be applied to that specific event?

If not, I will post the event and send you the link later.

Thanks again,
Ted

Sure! I should have just done that in the first place I guess ๐Ÿ™‚

So the CSS to select the datetime output is just:

#ee-event-datetimes-ul-{event-id} {
    display: none;
}

So say your event ID is 1234 you would use:

#ee-event-datetimes-ul-1234 {
    display: none;
}

Add that to Appearance -> Customize -> Additional CSS ad it should hide the datetimes on that specific event.

You can also do multiple events by seaprating each selector with a comma, so an example of event 111 and 222 would be:

#ee-event-datetimes-ul-111,
#ee-event-datetimes-ul-222 {
    display: none;
}
