Recurring Events Causes Empty Link

    I purchased Events Calendar Pro and I’ve raised this with the developers, however they’ve refused to help so I’m hoping someone here might be able to point me in the right direction.

    I have a site which needs to be AA compliant for accessibility. I’ve used the recurring events feature in the Pro plugin and this adds a small SVG icon next to each date to allow you to select all instances of the event. Unfortunately this generates an empty link and therefore fails the AA accessibility check. I’ve used the following CSS to hide the icon:

    a.tribe-events-calendar-list__event-datetime-recurring-link {display: none !important;}

    Which works on the front end, however it is still showing in the page code:


    <em class=”tribe-events-calendar-list__event-datetime-recurring-icon tribe-common-svgicon tribe-common-svgicon–recurring” aria-label=”Recurring” title=”Recurring”>

    Can anyone help me remove this entirely, perhaps with a code snippet.

    Note – for anyone considering the Pro plugin, the support offered is zero. Very poor.

    Hi @talbot649

    Thanks so much for reaching out! It sounds like you have already opened a ticket with our premium support, is that correct?

    If not, we’d be happy to help you over there:
    https://support.theeventscalendar.com/submit_ticket

    In the meantime, the best way to remove that would be to create a template override of the file that it is located in.

    Can you link me to the support ticket that you have opened with our premium support so that I can assist you over there?

    Thanks,
    Jaime

    Hi Jaime,

    Thanks for responding. I did raise a support ticket (Ref: BPK-MGPBZ-820) but the person who responded refused to correct the error, hence me trying other routes to get support. He wrote:

    Hello Andrew,
    Thanks for reaching out. I’ll be happy to answer your questions.
    To be able to achieve what you’ve described will involve writing custom code and modifying the template files for our plugins and unfortunately this is not covered by our support policy.
    However, if you want to go ahead and make the changes yourself, then I’d recommend you take a look at our guide to customizing the plugin: https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/guide/customization/
    If this is a feature you’d like to see in the future, you can make the suggestion on our UserVoice page: https://tribe.uservoice.com/
    Alternatively, this could be accomplished with custom development. We have a relationship with Codeable if you’d like to pay someone to build that: https://support.theeventscalendar.com/093589-Custom-Development
    Let me know if you need more information.
    Best regards,
    Marho

    Hi again @talbot649

    Okay, so what you’ll want to do here is to create a template override of the following file:
    events-calendar-pro/src/views/v2/list/event/recurring.php

    And make a copy of it here:
    [your-theme]/tribe/events-pro/v2/list/event/recurring.php

    In your copy, remove that piece of code, which starts on line 29.

    Let me know if that helps!

    Thanks,
    Jaime
