Main Calendar Colors – behind days of the week | tribe-events-calendar thead th

[Anne]

Hi I CAN figure out where to modify the widget calendar but the main calendar the weekday background tribe-events-calendar thead th I can not figure out what file. After purchasing the PRO calendar I didn’t expect to have to go into FTP direct access as well as then figure out where this was modified. Could you please help -I get the change to ‘appear’ on load then disappear – as if there is a file I can’t see via inspector/firebug that is reacting – even using custom css plugin to overwrite and still doesn’t work — i have tried numerous options for which file to copy and change – and what sub directory under tribe-events to place. I kinda expected this as an upgrade to the plugin as a general theme option change, not this heavy. please help – thanks!

Hi Anne. Sorry you’re experiencing this frustration.

I’m unclear exactly what you’re wanting to customize or how you’re wanting to customize it.

Are you aware of our PRO Color Customizer settings?

If that doesn’t get you what you’re wanting, please be more specific (links and screenshots and the CSS you’re thinking should work) so I might be able to help with your desired customizations.

Thanks.

yes i have the pro – but then it’s saying i need to make dupe copy into tribe-events of the file (which is fine, i guess) but to modify the css on 1 or 4 files?

tribe-events-calendar thead th
is the class to modify

pro what file to modify or ?? there is no upload for a file here in forum and i can’t put online my link now as am building thanks for understanding.

it’s the color behind the week days on the main calendar — the widget is super easy to modify this one is confusing – thanks

[Anne]

and Pro doesn’t give that option – maybe I should put this in your uservoice?
and you can delete this post thread?

Hi Anne. Thanks for your messages.

We don’t delete forum threads, but we can make threads Private from public view if necessary. Let me know if this will be necessary for some reason.

Regarding your customization request, please understand that we don’t typically provide such support, per our Scope of Support / Terms.

But here’s an attempt to help you with this single request:

You should NEVER modify the core plugin files, otherwise you’ll lose all your customizations upon the next update. Instead, you should add your own custom CSS that is more specific so it overrides the existing CSS.

Here’s the existing CSS: http://cl.ly/1V2s3i331M07

Here’s some custom CSS you could add to target the Month View’s week day names areas:

body.post-type-archive-tribe_events .tribe-events-month .tribe-events-calendar thead th {
background-color: pink;
color: black;
}

You can add custom CSS code via your child theme’s style.css file or via a plugin like Simple Custom CSS or, my favorite, Jetpack. Jetpack supports regular CSS and the LESS and Sass pre-processors.

If you’re not a CSS expert, Jetpack’s Custom Design reference may prove helpful.

Please let me know how it goes for you.
