Mini-Calendar Date Style on List Widget

[Jack Tumpson]

Hello,

I really like how the mini-cal widget uses those really styled blocks with the start day and date. I have tried modifying the list-widget.php file but cannot properly get the loop to work. Any suggestions beyond modifying my mini-cal widget which we use else where?

Thanks,
– Jordan

Jordan,
Thanks for getting in touch! We never recommend that users edit the plugin files directly, since your changes will be lost whenever you update the plugin. Take a look at our themer’s guide, which will show you how to properly override template files.

If you’re looking to customize the list widget, then you’ll want to override ‘plugins/events-calendar-pro/views/pro/widgets/list-widget.php.’ The loop is fully contained in that file, so you should be able to modify as needed to just display some blocks that are styled similarly to the mini-cal widget.

Hopefully that’s enough to get you started, but let me know if you have further questions. Thanks! 🙂

Hello,
I got through all of the above, but cannot find which variable holds the event start date.

Jordan,
Take a look at our Developer Docs, paying particular attention to the tribe_get_start_date() function, which is what I think you’ll need. Thanks! 🙂

I just wanted to follow up and see if you’re all set here or if you still have further questions. Just let me know if you have further questions or if I should go ahead and close out this thread. Thanks! 🙂
