Calendar colors, fonts, sizes

[L Kirstin Heads]

Hi,
I’ve installed the Events Calendar plug-in for my client’s to try on their site, which is in development (before fully handing it over to their tech), but they’re hesitant to use it because the link’s font on the full page calendar is so tiny and the type so light in color, they feel it’s barely visible, and they’re against purchasing the Pro version unless the color and size of the link’s font can be modified, along with the calendar colors.

Sorry, I neglected to ask whether this color, size problem is fixable.

Hi there

I’m a bit limited in being able to help customize a site, but we have a few tips to help you get the look you want. Most of these work with The Events Calendar (FREE) as well.

1. Start by modifying what you can at Appearance » Customize » The Events Calendar.. Learn more about the WordPress Customizer at https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/wordpress-customizer/
2. You can add additional settings to Appearance » Customize » The Events Calendar. by installing our Customize Calendar extension https://theeventscalendar.com/extensions/calendar-customizer/.
3. We generally don’t recommend that you change the theme or plugin’s CSS files directly, as they will be overwritten. To avoid this, follow the steps outlined in Themer’s Guide
4. Use overriding CSS files, or add CSS to your site using Appearance » Customize » Additional CSS.. See Changing Fonts and Colors https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/changing-fonts-and-colours/ for more tips.
5. Use !important before a semicolon to override every css rule. It’s a brute force method, but works for quick fixes.
6. Please check out this Customizing WordPress #2 – Using Chrome Developers Tools YouTube video in addition to our Using Chrome Developer Tools tutorial on how to easily make changes using CSS.

Is there anything else I can help you with?

Thanks
Courtney 🙂

Hey there! This thread has been pretty quiet for the last three weeks, so we’re going to go ahead and close it to avoid confusion with other topics.
