Formating for Calendar Listing

[Jenna]

I would like to know if it’s possible to have the information entered into an event show up in a vertical/list format. You can see what it is doing by this screenshot – I want it to list out in a list or vertically….not horizontally.
Thank you for your help.

Hi Jenna and thanks for getting in touch!

Yes, The Events Calendar (our free version) comes with two layouts right out of the box: Month View (which is the example you shared in the screenshot) and List View (which is a vertical list of events).

You can see an example of List View here:

Is that what you were looking for? Please let me know. 🙂

Cheers!

No. I mean actually when you roll over the event in the month view….I need to list out the event as a list….not like it is in one line…I tried to hard code breaks in the text and it still won’t format it correctly.

Hey Jenna,

Oh, gotcha, I see what you mean — thanks for clarifying!

Unfortunately, the Month View tooltip does not accept HTML formatting in excerpts right out of the box. While I haven’t tested it personally, the suggest in this post might do the trick:

Hopefully that does it. If not, it will otherwise take some custom development which, unfortunately, is outside what we are able to help do here in the forums, particularly in Pre-Sales.

Cheers,
Geoff
