Event Calendar Pro Issues

[SeQent]

Hello,

We have the free version of Events Calendar on our production website: http://www.seqent.com

On our test site we have the Events Calendar Pro: 64.39.162.134

Please look under Company- Events.

As you can see the styles are very different. The following list is the changes we would like to make on our test site:
– Featured picture size: We are aware of the cover & auto options but we want our picture on list view to resemble what it looks like on test
– Page title bar: We want to remove the space between the page title bar and the search bar. We also want to remove the “upcoming events” text on the page title bar
– Events Calendar Widget- is there any way to edit the settings to change the size and color?

Overall, we want our look to resemble the production site.

Howdy SeQuent,

I would love to help you with this. I’ve had a look at both and I can definitely see the differences you are talking about. They all stem from the customization Avada has made to alter the way the calendar looks. In your old site you are running version 3.6.2 of Avada, in the new 3.9.3. There basically two options to get them looking identical:

1. The easiest way is to install Avada 3.6.2 on your new site.
2. If you need some features from the newer theme though then you will have to heavily customize Avada to remove all of the newer versions alterations. You could start by going into the theme-folder and remove the /tribe-events/ folder. From there scour the Avada CSS files remove and rule that begin with ‘tribe_’.

Does one of those sound like a viable option to you? If you do not wish to make them fully identical then there are other options, but they will all require some coding knowhow much like option 2 does above. Please let me know.

Cheers!

Hi Brook,

Thank you for the quick reply. One key item we left off our problem report is we are perfectly happy using one of your standard looks. If you look at your Pro website we would be happy with the look of the 2nd row pictures examples 3 and 4.

Our goal is to get current with WP and your product versions as the consultant who developed the site has left it in a state which is very difficult to update.

Thank you

I think I understand. I appreciate the additional information.

I need to clarify one thing, we only have one “standard look” – the way your current website appears. The look of the new staging site you’re working on is completely non-standard, it is how the newer Avada theme has customized the look of our calendar.

If your main goal is to adjust the images I think I can help you there. If you apply the following CSS to your site I believe it will cause the image to shrink and be left aligned, similar to our standard look.

body .tribe-events-list .tribe-events-event-image img{ width:auto; }

body #tribe-events .tribe-events-list .type-tribe_events .tribe-events-event-image{ width:auto; }

If you need to extensively customize the look of the newer Avada theme you might wish to consult them. Our support here is more focused on the plugin API, and our hands are a bit tied when trying to support a third party’s (Avada) customizations. We are not familiarized with their customizations like their staff is, so we are inherently less knowledgeable and able to work with it.

Cheers!
