Some questions before I buy Events Calendar Pro

[Faye]

Hi, I have a few questions before deciding if I will use Events Calendar Pro. First, I do my registrations/payment/ticketing through Acuity Scheduling and don’t want to change that. Is there a way so that when someone registers for a class or event, the registration button can be linked to my Acuity Scheduling link where they would officially register and pay? Rather than directly on the Events Calendar? In other words, can the registration button be linked to an external URL?

If not, can I disable the default Events Calendar register button, and just enter the code for my own button?

Also, for the mini-calendar sidebar widget – is it possible to change the square DATE icons to images instead? As in the featured image for that event?

Hi Faye,

Thank you for your interest in our Events Calendar PRO plugin!

We don’t provide support for Acuity Scheduling and there’s no easy integration between Acuity Scheduling and Events Calendar PRO.

However, it would be possible to add a button linking to an external URL. To do that, you would have to customize the template for a single Event. We actually have a Theme’s guide which explains the process.

Regarding the mini-calendar in the sidebar, it would be similar: to replace the square date icons by images, you would have to modify the appropriate widget, still following the rules as explained in the Themer’s guide.

I hope this answers your question.

Cheers,
Jeremy
