Countdown Customization (adding blanks)

[infomanag]

Hi @ll,

I just want to get to the point: is there any possibility to change the “Days”, “Hours” etc. Text in the Countdown Widget? I would really like to add some blanks between the numbers and the words on our site: http://www.infoman.de/event/crm-impulswebinare-der-infoman-ag/

I can’t find any rules for this in the settings and I don’t know how this could be changed in the Stylesheets. Any suggestions?

Thanks a lot!

Greets,

Thomas

Hey Thomas, welcome to the forums!

Sure, that sounds possible. You can override the Countdown Widget template and add your spaces there.

To do this:

• Make a copy of the template. It’s located in /plugins/events-pro/src/views/pro/widgets/countdown-widget.php.
• Make a new folder in your theme directory called tribe-events
• Make a folder inside that one called pro
• Make a folder inside that once called widgets
• Drop the copied template in that folder

Now that the template is in your theme, it can be customized to suit you needs. In this case, add the spaces in there where the time indicators are and the changes should take hold. We have more details on template overrides in our Themer’s Guide which I’d recommend checking out as well.

Will that work for you? Please let me know. 🙂

Cheers!
