Is the Widget customisable?

[unityboulder]

I would like to change the font to match the WP theme I’m using. Also, I would like a thumbnail image for the event to show up as well. How do I do this?

Hi there unityboulder,

Yes – it’s completely customizable 🙂

I’m not sure if you are referring to our list widget or the calendar widget, but in either case you can add custom CSS rules via a tribe-events/pro/tribe-events-pro.css stylesheet – or, if it is specifically the calendar widget you are interested in, you could set up tribe-events/pro/widget-calendar.css instead – which you would add to your theme directory (see here for more complete instructions).

Within that, you could specify something like this:

.widget.tribe_mini_calendar_widget,
.widget.tribe-events-adv-list-widget,
.widget.tribe-events-list-widget { 
	font-family: cursive; /* Change to your desired font */
}

Adding a thumbnail image is also possible and we actually have an existing tutorial for this, which you can find here:

tri.be/adding-post-thumbnails-to-the-events-list-widget/

If you are interested in the calendar widget rather than the list widget then it’s still worth a read – a lot of the same principles still apply 🙂

I hope that helps!

Hi! It’s been a while so I’m going to go ahead and close this thread. If we can help with anything else, though, please don’t hesitate to create new threads as needed. Thanks!
