Need to change how the event module presents data

at the moment the upcoming event that may be listed in the sidebar is displayed as

node title
days left and category name

what I was wondering is would any one know where in the events module is the category defined, I would like to change this to a term id of the category rather than the main category title

is this difficult

cheers

I tracked the code down to

$ctype = module_invoke('flexinode', 'load_content_type', substr($node->type, 10));
$node->typename = ($ctype->name ? $ctype->name : $node->type);

where the node->type is the line that needs changing to some term id

any ideas what I need to change it to

what are the lines
($ctype->name ? $ctype->name : $node->type);
doing

later

Quite simply put, it's saying "If there's anything in the content type name, use the name, otherwise, use the type."

So you can replace the whole chunk in parens with what you're looking to have displayed.
