How to change magazine entries to show subheading instead of post date

HI,
after 5 days waiting for a halpful response I feel a bit disappointed. You surely must have an idea on what to do here, with such a team around.I would love to hear from you.

Thanks,
Anne

HI There,

I researched a bit more and came up with the idea to put the event dates as excerpt. There is a thread where you provided the code that needs to be changed in order to show the excerpt on all magazine posts: https://kriesi.at/support/topic/show-excerpt-in-all-magazine-blog-list/
This works perfect (I’ll have to use a child theme I suppose, to keep this).

The only thing left is that it is a bit confusing showing both the posting date and the event date. What else is necessary to not show the posting date above the title anymore but only title and excerpt?

Thnaks very much.

Anne

Hey Basilis,

thanks a lot. It works!
With the help of this thread ( https://kriesi.at/support/topic/events-in-ascending-order/ ), I was even able to sort the posts, so that the most recent is on top (just changed it to ascending order).Therefore, I edited the posting date to exactly one year before the event. So the oldest comes first.Now it works perfectly as an upcoming events list.

One more questions though concerning the magazine showing the excerpts (as event dates). For this I had to edit magazine.php and was hoping I could put the file into the child theme, so I won’t lose the changes on a theme update. This did not work. Is there a special trick or is this just not working in this case since the original file is not placed directly in the theme folder?

Thanks a lot for your advise.

HI!

Thanks for your reply.
I did as decribed (at least that’s what I think;-) but when I want to activate the child theme I get this syntax error:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected end of file in /homepages/7/d520157044/htdocs/clickandbuilds/Perspektivschmiede/wp-content/themes/Perspektivschmiede/functions.php on line 22 (this is the very last line)
and cannot figure out what the problem is. Can you help?

Here is the functions.php code:

<?php

/*
* Perspektivschmiede theme functions file.
*/

//set the child theme folder that contains the modified shortcodes and make sure, it is the first element

function add_child_shortcode_folder($paths)
{
if(! is_array( $paths ) )
{
$paths = array();
}

$child_path = array(dirname(__FILE__) .”/config-templatebuilder/avia-shortcodes/”);

$paths = array_merge($child_path, $paths);
return $paths;
}

add_filter(‘avia_load_shortcodes’,’add_child_shortcode_folder’, 1000);

Thanks a lot,
Anne

<?php

/*
* Add your own functions here. You can also copy some of the theme functions into this file. 
* WordPress will use those functions instead of the original functions then.
*/

function add_child_shortcode_folder($paths)
{
if(! is_array( $paths ) )
{
$paths = array();
}

$child_path = array(dirname(__FILE__) ."/config-templatebuilder/avia-shortcodes/");

$paths = array_merge($child_path, $paths);
return $paths;
}

add_filter('avia_load_shortcodes','add_child_shortcode_folder', 1000);
