Modified templates — update issues

    Hi,
    Thanks for a great plugin!
    And sorry if this question has been asked before, I can’t find any trace of it.
    I’ve had to modify the “embedded-events.php” file in order to embed events the way I like into my theme, but of course those modifications are erased every time I update this plugin.
    Is there any way to have Event Rocket pull the template from my theme folder instead?

    Cheers

    Hi @dorearendil,

    Manually modifying plugin code is generally a bad idea for that very reason – but yes, you can point the shortcode to a different template which can live outside of the plugin:

    [event_embed template="shortcode-embeds"]

    The above should load:

    themes/YOUR_THEME/tribe-events/shortcode-embeds.php

    Which of course you would need to set up, and could initially be a straight copy of the original contained in the plugin. You can even specify a complete and absolute filepath, so if you need more control and want to locate your custom template outside of your theme, you can ??

    I hope that helps!
