 * I want it so when I or a user pressed on the event summary within the [events]
   list it can take them to an external URL instead of the single event page. How
   would i do this?

 * Also is there a way to make the events only show the image on the [events] list
   and not the information panel?

 * Hi [@sicariusalex](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sicariusalex/),
 * First, you need to override template file called “content-event_listing.php” 
   by following this doc [https://wp-eventmanager.com/template-files-override/](https://wp-eventmanager.com/template-files-override/)
 * `<a href="<?php display_event_permalink(); ?>"` remove the diplay event permalink
   function and apply your custom function here.
 * If you just do this then it won’t be redirected to single event page. If you 
   are still not sure then please create support ticket here [https://support.wp-eventmanager.com](https://support.wp-eventmanager.com)
 * Thank you

 * How can I customize the event summary? I want to add a button and centre the 
   event name and text.

 * Hi [@sicariusalex](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sicariusalex/),
 * Once you have overridden the template file to your theme side you need to make
   adjustments in the template file called `content-event_listing.php`.
 * Add button or anything you want to add in the theme side template file.
    If you
   want to center the event name then you need to add the following CSS to your 
   theme’s [custom CSS section](https://en.support.wordpress.com/custom-design/editing-css/)
 *     ```
       .wpem-event-title {
           text-align: center;
       }
       ```

 * Thanks a lot. Do you have documentation with all the css tags for each element?
 * Also: Is there any way to make the wordpress search bar on header only look for
   events?

 * Hi [@sicariusalex](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sicariusalex/),
 * We don’t have documentation for the CSS and tags for each element. If you are
   experienced with HTML and styling then you can easily do it without checking 
   the documentation.
 * I would suggest you assign the customization to any experienced developer.
 * Thank you

   events results. How would i do this?
