better looking 'list view'

[Paul Nye]

I was viewing the list view here:

Is it possible to make the list view different by having smaller thumbnail image, and stretching the text wider.
Example:

Hi Paul,

Great question!

Yes, The Events Calendar is completely flexible to customize and modify the templates to suit your needs.

For example, you can use custom CSS to change the size, appearance or layout of the calendar. We have a tutorial that offers tips and tricks for locating the calendar’s CSS classes for the purposes of customizing them:

Using Google Chrome Developer Tools

It’s also possible to completely override any of the calendar template files for more advanced customizations. For example, you can take the template for the List View you mentioned and override it in your theme folder so that you can change the markup however you see fit. We have step-by-step instructions for template overrides here in our Themer’s Guide:

This sort of customization does take a little bit of development on your end and I know that coding isn’t for everyone. We also have a list of recommended freelancers who might be willing to lend a hand if that’s a level of service you would be interested in:

Does this help answer your question? Please let me know if you have any follow-up questions here and I’d be happy to help as best I can.

Cheers!
Geoff

Thanks for the response. I prefer to not use custom css due to perceived time and difficulty.
I was more hoping for some options in the gui

Sorry to disappoint, Paul. 🙁

I will close this thread for now, but if you have any other questions please feel free to open a new thread any time!

Sincerely,
George
