.php modification on previous/next links

[johndove]

Hi,

Please see URL: http://caspca.org/wordpress/event/crafts-for-critters/

For the previous/next links, the actual name of the event is displayed (in the main post, not the sidebar widget). I don't think this is terribly intuitive to the viewer. I would like to replace the event titles with more generic "previous event" and "next event" links. I don't know enough .php to know how to modify the code:

<div class="navlink previous"><?php tribe_previous_event_link();?></div>

<div class="navlink next"><?php tribe_next_event_link();?></div>

Can someone please specify exactly how to modify?

Thank you,

John

You need to find the file containing the php functions tribe_previous_event_link and tribe_next_event_link and then modify them.

Yes. I know that. I've found the file, posted the exact .php in question here, and I need to how to modify it.

[chrisranjana]

No, I meant the file containing the definition of the functions... like function tribe_previous_event_link and function tribe_next_event_link

In other words, the file that has something like:

function tribe_previous_event_link()
{
   // stuff here that does the processing and then presumably echoes the link
}

I searched the entire Event Calendar plugin directory and found only a single file containing "tribe_previous_event_link", it's the same file that I plucked the code from in my original post here (file is attached). There is an opening comment in this file that seems to suggest an answer...

"* You can customize this view by putting a replacement file of the same name (single.php) in the events/ directory of your theme.
*/

If this looks like the thing to do, I'm using a custom theme which doesn't have an events/ directory...can you tell me exactly what I need to do?

Thanks guys.
