Community Events and Calendar.

[Frederik]

Hello.

I was wondering if it’s possible to add a button to the calendar where my users can add new events, with the Community Events plugin. And if it’s possible to customize the form for Community Events, as my country does not have states it’s kind of a useless option and confusing for most users.

Also, here’s a link to a bug I presume it is.

Just another user here, and by no means an expert. But wouldn’t the button you are considering be possible using the :before and :after fields in the Events settings?

Hey Frederik,

I’m so sorry about the delayed response here! Not sure how your topic fell through the cracks, we usually try to get responses to customers in 24 hours or less and am very sorry about the delay on this one.

In regards to your questions, adding custom buttons and such is a bit complicated and falls outside the scope of our support forums. However, you can definitely write custom code for any purpose you desire. Your best option for learning more about how to do this is to read through our Themer’s Guide here → https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/themers-guide/

The before-content and after-content fields that John mentioned might indeed be helpful for you, as well, but more likely you will need to make some custom code here (unless I am misunderstanding your goals, which I apologize for if that’s the case!)

As for tweaking the Community Events form, that same Themer’s Guide article I share above should help you customize the edit-event.php file which is used for the Community Events submission form – pull out any fields you don’t want, and you should be good to go.

I hope this information helps and, again, am very sorry for the delayed response!

Cheers,
George
