The look and feel

[sammioneill]

I have played around with

Events > settings > display and each option looks the same.

Why can’t I make my event look nice, I would like a gap around the edge of the event so that the text is not sqished and I would like the change the font to make it match the rest of the site.

I have no coding experience so prefer not to mess with CSS

Any suggestions?

Hi Sammi,

I’m sorry that you’re having a hard time getting the page to match…did you try clearing out your site and browser cache after changing the “Default stylesheet used for events templates” setting to “Skeleton Styles” under Events > Settings > Display? If you didn’t see any difference after changing this setting, caching could have been the issue, so I would recommend giving this another try.

If you still don’t see a difference, then you may need to add a bit of CSS to the Additional CSS area under Appearance > Customize (if you have one) or to the style.css file of your child theme:

#tribe-events-pg-template {
padding: 0 10px 20px;
}
#tribe-events-content {
margin-bottom: 10px;
font-family: Arial, Sans-serif;
font-size: 0.875rem;
line-height: 1.55;
}

You could also try out a plugin like this one, which provides a simple way to add in custom CSS. Let me know if this helps!

Thanks,

Jennifer

And I don’t know how to add CSS.

Pretty sad

Hi Sammi,

There are a few different ways that you can add the CSS, but since you haven’t worked too much with it before, I would recommend using a plugin. If you install and activate Simple Custom CSS, you can go to Appearance > Custom CSS and paste in the code I sent you before.

I hope this helps!
