Flexible opening hours during the year / regular day off

[Fil]

Hi, I have questions about
———-
Opening hours of some one gallery (illustrative example):
April-May, October-December:
Only Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays: 10.00-12.30, 13.00-17.00 h.

June-September:
Closed Monday (every Monday).
Tuesday to Sunday and holidays from 9.00 to 12.30, from 13.00 to 18.00 h.
24 and 31 December (annual recurring holidays) 2014 closed.

a) In the PRO version can I enter this hours?
b) Mainly regular closing days (Mondays) can be entered?
c) Editing recurring annual public holidays can be entered for certain countries?
———-
d) I voted for listing the location of the events (List of galleries, museums, …). With a geographic focus sorting (near my home) and alphabetically. Are you thinking about development?
———-
e) What theme for WordPress recommend for your plugins? For what themes are you test? I need some really simple. Small blog with many exhibitions and occasionally posts (interview, reportage). Your calendar will be the backbone of the website. Working for mobile devices and with full-width page for the calendar. Please recommend me.
Thank you.

Hi, Thank you for taking the time to reach out to us. My apologies in taking so long to respond and I’ll do my best to answer your questions

Am I correct in that you are thinking of using Events Calendar PRO in displaying the hours a gallery/store is open? Looking at your example here is a short outline of how to enter the information.

a) Currently we cannot setup the above recurrence logic in a single event. Instead you would have to setup multiple recurrence events for different scenarios.

1. <span style=”line-height: 13px;”>Recurring event for each day you are open in April-May and Oct-Dec. with a separate event per hours open.
   Custom Yearly on April,May, October, November, December Saturday
   Custom Yearly on April, May, October, November, December Sunday
   </span>
2. We don’t have support for defining “public holidays” as such you would need to have a separate event for showing these dates
3. For the summer hours you could create a weekly event that is from Tuesday -Sunday for the hours listed. This event you would have to create each year unless you did a Yearly event for the dates for the given months similar to 1

b) We don’t currently have logic for excluding “closed” dates at a global level. You would have to ensure your recurrences don’t include Mondays.

c) If you can define rules around the public Holiday (christmas, new years) etc than you can schedule an event for them. However with having multiple events you have to be sure they don’t create multiple for the same day.

d) We are still tracking this enhancement. At this time it hasn’t been scheduled for development.

e) We test the theme in the standard Twenty Ten, Twenty Twelve, Twenty Fourteen themes. As for recommendations I’d suggest looking in the WordPress.org themes directory as WordPress has a very stricty theme review policy so if a theme is approved they usually are pretty nicely implemented.

I hope the above information is helpful and answers your questions.
