Q - How do I force the Event block wording into one line and remove the (Event) tag?
A - Use CSS...
Add the following to the bottom of your style css, this avoids altering the module, which as well as not being a good idea would also be overwritten when you upgrade:
/**
* Should force event block wording together and remove (Event) and ical icon
*/
span.event-timeleft {
display:inline;
padding-left:5px;
}
span.event-nodetype {
display: none;
}
.ical-link {
display: none;
}
