Third Column of Information in the top of Single Event View

[John]

I am using a full page default view on my WordPress site which seems ideal for presenting most of the information with this awesome plugin but am wondering if the remaining space on the upper right hand corner of the Single Event view is useable somehow.

I would like to place a registration button in this space or even move the featured image to this location. The page I am working on right now is here:

Hey John, you’ll want to modify the single.php template located in /wp-content/plugins/the-events-calendar/views/single.php. Make a copy of it and place in an ‘events’ folder in your theme. Then you make all the changes you want and not worry about losing them upon update. Then it’s up to your imagination to code in whatever you want to appear in that area via a combination of HTML, PHP and CSS.

I hope that helps!

Jonah,
I am sorry to admit that I am not much of a coder and am learning as I go. Is there a div for that area already? I do not see anything showing up there so I have no point of reference. Would this be the area that refers to ‘custom fields’?

Hey John, nope there is no div. You’ll need to add a div or whatever other HTML you want to display there. Play around and experiment, its the best way to learn 🙂 You might want to check out some tutorials online for HTML and CSS. That’s going to help you a ton. PHP is not as crucial but it can also be helpful, but HTML and CSS are good starting points. One quick tip would be to add a div and then target it in the CSS, giving it a border or background so you can see it. Chrome Developer Tools and/or Firebug for Firefox are also great tools for helping you out with this sort of thing. Take a look online on how to use them and you’ll be well on your way to coding like a pro!

Custom fields already have a place to display in the template but like everything else, can be moved wherever you want.
