Change month with the day of the week?

[Lukas Mankow]

Hi everyone, I want to change the month “Sep” above the the day (“12”, “14”) of the month to the day of the week = MO, FR etc.?

How can I do this?

Hi Lukas

You’ll want to start at Events » Settings » Display and change the Date with year option I believe. The official guide to modifying how these are displayed is located at https://codex.wordpress.org/Formatting_Date_and_Time. You’ll notice the day of the week is represented with the letter “l”, and the full month name with the letter “F”.

If that doesn’t work, you can customize the widget display further by going to the Themer’s Guide to create a custom override that won’t break when plugin updates happen.

Let me know if the first option works out for you.

Thanks
Courtney 🙂

Hi Courtney I tried it out but only the displayed date under the event of the name changes.Not the “SEP” in the box in the left. Is there another solution?

Hi Lukas

https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/themers-guide/ has the starting point on customizing this further. Specifically, you’ll want to modify the widgets/list-widget.php.

We’re limited in helping with styling customizations, per our Scope of Support / Terms.

Thanks
Courtney 🙂
