Customising expired events

[Mark | MacGraphic]

Have a client that want’s an event site created, but there needs to be some (what I think will have to be) custom work done on it… They want the usual sharing to social media for upcoming events, add to outlook & iCal, event categories – all no problem. But on an upcoming event there’s no comments.
The tricky part is that they want to disable the Add to iCal & outlook after the event is passed, but also to be able to allow comments and ‘vetted images’ to be added to the page by registered users AFTER the event has expired.
Having not used Events Calendar or the Community Events, I am not sure this option is available.

Hi,

Thanks for the interest in our plugins. I can answer your questions.

We do not have a way to hide features such as the iCal if it is a past event.

You could modify the template following our themer’s guide and add a check for the event date and if it is in the past then it would hide it.

We do not have a way to add vetted images or capabilities such as that it could be possible, but with a customization.

The comments rely on the theme, but there might be a way to open them after an event has passed or at least only show on past events.

All these seem possible, but would involving customizations and for the most part that is beyond the support we can provide.

Let me know if you have any follow up questions.

Thanks
