Questions

[Ricky]

Hi, I’m considering purchasing Event Calendar Pro, but have a few questions:

1) Can custom links be displayed (with links) on the events page using list view? I need a register button without people having to click through to the event page. I’ve looked at your events tickets product, but I already have my ticketing sorted.

2) Is there any time zone conversion in the pipeline. Otherwise, I have to send my visitors to http://www.thetimezoneconverter.com/ which is not ideal.

Thanks,

Ricky

Hi there Ricky,

Thanks for getting in touch and for your interest in our products 🙂

1) Can custom links be displayed (with links) on the events page using list view? I need a register button without people having to click through to the event page. I’ve looked at your events tickets product, but I already have my ticketing sorted.

Sure this is possible by hooking to an action executed in the list view template. You can also create a template override (a custom copy of the template) and place it there (more on this on our themer’s guide).

2) Is there any time zone conversion in the pipeline. Otherwise, I have to send my visitors to http://www.thetimezoneconverter.com/ which is not ideal.

There’s no utility to convert the events schedule to the viewer timezone. In these cases we recommend using a setting that shows the timezone of the event in the schedule details so users are aware of this.

Please let me know if there’s anything else I can help you with,
Best,
Nico

Hi there,

Re point 1: “hooking to an action executed in the list view template” – what does this mean and how do I do it? I don’t know HTML I’m afraid.

Thanks for helping,

Ricky

Thanks for following up Ricky!

hooking to an action executed in the list view template

This is achieved by a simple PHP snippet placed in your theme’s (or child theme’s) functions.php file. To know more about Actions & Hooks in WordPress please review this guide → Plugin API.

Best,
Nico

Hey there! This thread has been pretty quiet for the last three weeks, so we’re going to go ahead and close it to avoid confusion with other topics. If you’re still looking for help with this, please do open a new thread, reference this one and we’d be more than happy to continue the conversation over there.

Thanks so much!
