How to change the pop up that appears when you hover the calendar date

[avandovince]

Hi There,

I have the events plugin with ticket plus, and i need to change the calendar pop up.

I have an event on the 21st of January. and when you hover over the 21st of January you get the pop up box that appears with the excerpt and image. But none of this links through.

At the moment it is just the event name listed on the 21st in the calendar which is clickable. This is not obvious enough that there is a click through for them to purchase a ticket. I assume there is some tweak of something I can do to make the pop up box clickable or include a “click for more information” in it.

Otherwise my visitors are likely to miss this especially when the big box appears.

Can you advise how I can include a link in the pop up box, or make the entire pop up box linkable to the event.

Regards,
Vince

Hi Vince,

You can customize the popup by following these instructions to copy the tooltip.php template (found at wp-content/plugins/the-events-calendar/src/views/month) into your child theme, where you can edit it. To add a “Click for more info” link, you can add the following where you would like the link to display:

Click here for more info

If you would like to make the entire box clickable, you can wrap the entire “tribe-events-tooltip” div with the link. Note that there are two different versions of the tooltip in that file: standard and featured. You will need to add the link to both versions if you would like it to show up in both. Here’s an example making the entire box clickable:

Please let me know how this works and if you have any questions!

Thanks,
