    Our “events” are actually six month courses for which there is an application deadline.
    We want to list /sort our courses by the application deadline (not the course run dates) and to have that deadline appear as a label like : Application Deadline: June 4, 2017

    Is it possible under any version /add on) of the event calendar to do this?
    (In the free version of calendar, I see that we can create the list order sort by the Application Deadline simply by making the event dates a single day long…. but then it looks to consumer as if those are the course dates vs application deadlines. So the label is super important

    Thank you

    Hi Aaron,

    Thanks for getting in touch–happy to assist you with this! While the type of setup you’ve described here isn’t something that’s easily configured right out of the box, you can likely achieve something that’s workable and displays well with a bit of light customization. I’d suggest creating your events as you’ve laid out here, with the day of the event falling on the application deadline. From there, you can simply modify the plugin’s list view template to display the event date next to an “Application Deadline” label. The actual course dates for your event can be displayed in the event description that is shown when your users click through to the single event page. You can read more about how to duplicate and modify our plugin templates for purposes such as these on our Themer’s Guide!

    I hope that helps to get you started here! Thanks again, and let us know if you should have any other questions! 🙂

    Hey there! This thread has been pretty quiet for the last three weeks, so we’re going to go ahead and close it to avoid confusion with other topics. If you’re still looking for help with this, please do open a new thread, reference this one and we’d be more than happy to continue the conversation over there.

    Thanks so much!
