Dear all,

1. I have an agency and would like to add tours to the calendar as one slim long box. Do anybody have an idea?

2. I would also like to change the text seize in the calendar and frame it with a coloured box if possible. Any ideas on that?

Best,
Tommy

Good evening Tommy and welcome back!

Thank you for reaching out to us.
I would love to help you with these questions.

1. I have an agency and would like to add tours to the calendar as one slim long box. Do anybody have an idea?

I would need a visual example of what you are trying to accomplish to be 100% certain.

But I am pretty sure you can do this using a template customization. You might want to read our Themer’s guide to get a sense of how that works.

2. I would also like to change the text seize in the calendar and frame it with a coloured box if possible. Any ideas on that?

That is totally possible with some CSS. I would need specific example of where you want your changes (ideally screenshots) to provide you a few examples.

In the meantime, you might want to checkout the following third-party plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/the-events-calendar-category-colors/

Best regards,

Geoff B.

Dear Geoff.

On the attached file you can see what I mean with the colour scheme but also tour periods. The tour periods should not necessary be an event but just to inform about the tour.

Thanks for you help in advance.

I hope this makes sense.

Tommy

Good evening Tommy,

Thank you for writing back and sending a screenshot.
What you want to do is very clear.

The category colors plugin will certainly help with the different colors.

However, to have “long slim box” event display is unfortunately not built-in and will require a customization.

Basically, there needs to be a detection of events that span over several days and specific rules on how to display them (including on mobile devices).

If that is a bit outside of your comfort zone, you can hire one of our recommended customizers to do the customization for you.

Finally, you can suggest that feature here: https://tribe.uservoice.com/forums/195723-feature-ideas

Best regards,

Geoff B.
