Adding month in events list

[marlieinthesouth]

Hi,

I am using events list with image, through a customed code in my function.php :
/* ADD IMAGE IN EVENT LIST
================================================== */
function custom_widget_featured_image() {
global $post;
echo tribe_event_featured_image( $post->ID, ‘thumbnail’ );
}
add_action( ‘tribe_events_list_widget_before_the_event_title’, ‘custom_widget_featured_image’ );

but I would like to add the month next to the date. How can I do this ?

Hey,

Thanks for reaching out to us!

I took a look at our widgets and see that by default they do include the month in the date format. If you’re not seeing this at all, take a look at your settings under the Event Settings > Display tab within the date format section and ensure that your settings look like the following https://cloudup.com/cHMxs1MXj7I.

Additionally, would you mind providing a live link to the site where you’re experiencing the issue?

Thanks!

Hey Émilie,

Thanks for following up.

Ah, it looks like you would like that added to this part of the list template https://cloudup.com/cKve9EXKN5V.

You can do this by following our Themer’s Guide and copying the views > pro > widgets > modules > single-event.php file into your theme and modifying the “list-date” div to include the month in addition to the day and day number.

To do this, you can just copy one of the existing spans within that div and ensure you change the format code for the date ( the “D” or “d”) to be the correct one for displaying the month.

Let me know if this helps.

Thanks!

Hey,

Thanks for following up and providing the code you’re currently using.

I took a look at the site and at the source level I’m not seeing the duplicated span that you have in the example. Is the code still active on your site. If so, it may not be placed in the proper place within your theme. Ensure that the file is placed in your theme at the following location:

tribe-events > pro > widgets > modules > single-event.php

Let me know if this helps.

Thanks!

Hey Marlie,

Thanks for following up. Can you post the full template file code as a gist on http://gist.github.com and post it here so I can take a look at it?

Thanks!

Hey,

Thanks for providing the full code!

I tested on my local install and noticed a single typo with the added span. Try using this code for that span https://gist.github.com/BeardedGinger/0a1ab86367c4837f75c5.

Once added, the month became visible in the block for the widget like so https://cloudup.com/ce5FcfAKp_0.

Let me know if this helps.

Thanks!

Hi Josh,
Thanks again!
It didn’t have worked when I have add the file in my theme at tribe-events > pro > widgets > modules > single-event.php.
But I have tried with events-calendar-pro > pro > widgets > modules > single-event.php… and it’s fine!!!

Thank you very much for your help.
Have a nice day

Hi Josh,

But I it works when I modify the original file in the plugin.
I have tried with a folder name events-calendar-pro instead of tribe-events but it doesn’t work neither.

Hey,

That’s definitely strange. The file structure you’ve stated (tribe-events > pro > widgets > modules > single-event.php) looks right. A couple of suggestions that may help diagnose:

1. Ensure that this has been added to the appropriate theme folder. Ensure it is within the active theme for your site.
2. Ensure that the titles of each of the folders is spelled properly without any unintentional misspellings or typos.

Let me know if this helps.

Thanks!
