We’re getting to the point that we’re having so many events happening in a single day it’s becoming ugly to look at our calendar. When switching to the list view it doesn’t seem to have a dropdown to filter the month. It would be excellent to be able to have a visual calendar popup and let the user click on the particular day.
Also there’s no way to filter events by category or by state. When we have promoters from all around the country listing their event and 10 of them have an event on the same day it’s pushes the calendar down by quite a bit making it look awful.
How can I at least get the monthly dropdown on the page to at least navigate the list or else it would take forever for someone to click through the events. We’re really running into problems here and I need to speak with a dev to figure out how to best use the calendar.
Hello Tony,
Thanks for this message. To start with, I would recommend that some of these ideas be posted to our feature requests forum, since perhaps other uses are looking for the same thing, and we can keep track of demand for certain features there: https://theeventscalendar.com/support/forums/topic/events-calendar-pro-feature-requests/To get a drop-down going, you’d need to do some custom coding. The best place to start would be the Themer’s Guide: https://theeventscalendar.com/themers-guide-to-the-events-calendar/
We also have a documentation page here: https://theeventscalendar.com/support/documentation
For the categories, I would recommend checking out these two tutorials we have that might help you find a way around organizing your many events:
Customizing our widgets (which can filter upcoming events by category: https://theeventscalendar.com/how-to-completely-customize-widgets/
Colouring category events: https://theeventscalendar.com/coloring-your-category-events/
Our support doesn’t go as far as being able to help you customize, but we can help steer you in the right direction as much as possible. I hope this helps!
