color code by venue

[Caroline]

Hi:

Am considering purchasing Pro to replace a dated calendar platform based on AJAX on a client’s site. One function they really like about the current calendar plugin they use is that the events are color coded by venue (they have three separate stages for their productions) AND a user can click on a venue name when viewing the calendar by month and see only that venue’s events.

Is this something PRO can do? At the very least would to be able to color code by venue even if we couldn’t see only a specific venue’s events.

Hi there!

Thanks for getting in touch! While we don’t have built-in support for color-coded calendar events in the way you’re describing, this is something that should definitely be possible via customization. Our Themer’s Guide is a great resource for all things related to template modifications and would be the best place to start for more info there!

Regarding venues and viewing events tied to a specific locale, you have plenty of options here–The Events Calendar stores venues as custom taxonomies in the WordPress database, so much of what’s possible with standard WordPress categories can also be achieved with venues in TEC. This Knowledgebase article goes into a bit more detail and includes information on how to add venue links to a standard WordPress navigation menu. If you have any more specific questions about how these work, I’d be happy to answer them for you! 🙂

I hope that helps! Let me know if you should have any other questions!

Hi again! It’s been a while since our last exchange, and it looks like you’ve marked a correct answer for your question here, so I’m going to go ahead and close this thread out. Please don’t hesitate to follow up with a new thread if there’s anything else we can do to assist! 🙂 Thank you!
