Alternative image for tooltip

[Simone]

Hello,

after searching for quite a while I have to ask now and hope that somebody can help me:
How can the events calender display a different image in the monthly view than the events image? I would like to change the event-tooltip-image (is it tribe-event-event-thumb?) to a location category image.
Additionally I’d like to display this location category image on the single event page. See screenshots.

AND – to make it more complicated – where can I change the font-color: I need a certain color for each location category.

Phew, I hope you understand what I am looking for?!

Thanks for any help!

Regards,
Simone

Hi Simone,

Thanks for reaching out to us! I can point you in the right directions here 🙂

How can the events calender display a different image in the monthly view than the events image?

For this you’ll need to create a template override of the file: the-events-calendar/src/views//month/single-event.php the file has the instructions to perform modifications to the tooltip (more details in our themer’s guide).

Additionally I’d like to display this location category image on the single event page. See screenshots.

Achieving this depends on how you are storing the ‘venue’ image. Basically a template override of the single event template and iserting the appropriae code to show the image, or just hooking to some action in the template (like tribe_events_single_event_before_the_meta).

AND – to make it more complicated – where can I change the font-color: I need a certain color for each location category.

Again, depends on how you are storing the venue color. To simply things you might want to use → The Events Calendar Category Colors. It doesn’t do exactly what you need but something pretty similar, and although it’s a third party plugin (we cannot support it) the author actively supports the plugin.

Hope that helps, and also please let me know if it’s too technical for you,
Best,
Nico
