Hi fellow Orgers,

I have a bunch of entries in my agenda that don't have /titles/.  I
enrolled in a school which has classes on Saturdays, usually every two
weeks, but this is not very rigid.  So I need a separate headline per
Saturday:

** School on Super Important Stuff
**** <2024-10-05 Sat 09:30>
**** <2024-10-19 Sat 09:30>
**** <2024-11-16 Sat 09:30>

However, they show up like this in my agenda:

Saturday    5 October 2024
  personal:    9:30...... 

As I said, there is no clear "subject" or "title" of every class day.
Are there any ways (e.g., properties) I could put there so that my
agenda looks better, for example contains "School on Super Important
Stuff" as the title of the 2024-10-05 entry?

TIA,

--

Check out breadcrumbs in `org-agenda-prefix-format'.

You can add a CATEGORY property and that will replace the `personal' but
it still won't provide a headline:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
** School on Super Important Stuff
:PROPERTIES:
:CATEGORY: School on Super Important Stuff
:END:
**** <2024-10-05 Sat 09:30>
**** <2024-10-19 Sat 09:30>
**** <2024-11-16 Sat 09:30>
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

The agenda would show something like this:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Saturday    5 October 2024
  appts:       6:48 ┄┄┄┄┄ Sunrise 
  School on Super Important Stuff: 9:30 ┄┄┄┄┄ 
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

If you wanted it aligned, you'd have to change
`org-agenda-prefix-format' to give the category a bigger width
(or use a shorter CATEGORY value).
