Upcoming Events event title is huge!

[Cynthia Lockley]

Which CSS classes / template do I need to modify to fix the huge event title in the Upcoming Events widget? It is currently huge (3em or 4em ?) and one word per line. http://events.stcwdc.org/ I’d like it to be left aligned and about 1em. I looked at the page View Source to see if I could find out what class was causing this and could only find the same class names as used in the regular calendar. I am using a Twenty Eleven child theme.

Hi there,

I’m sorry we haven’t been in touch with a reply here. We’ve been inundated with support requests as more people update to 3.0, so we are a little behind our usual 24-hour window for responses. We do not do support over the weekend, but we will be in touch here with a more substantial reply as soon as possible.

In the meantime, some of these tips might be helpful:
* Double check your Plugin page for updates. We’ve just released our latest maintenance release. As of 7/12, the most current versions are The Events Calendar 3.0.1 and Events Calendar PRO 3.0.2.
* If you’re experiencing a problem with links, try resetting and resaving your permalinks.
* If the issue is with settings, try resaving your settings page- even if you haven’t changed anything.
* Having trouble with a customization done in 2.x? Be sure to check out our Themer’s Guide and documentation.

You might also search the forums to see if someone else has a similar issue and has found a solution. Finally, if the problem you’re experiencing is a serious problem, you may choose to downgrade back to 2.0.11.

Thank you for your patience and support.

Best,
Leah

Has anyone figured out yet how to get the event title to a normal size in the Upcoming Events widget? I can’t figure out what CSS class needs to be changed just for this and won’t affect everything else.

Hi Cynthia

It looks like you have a class named .entry-title with a font-size of 26px set. This is on line 740 of your themes style sheet.

Try editing that class and see if that helps.

That class is in the parent Twenty Eleven theme as provided by WP. I have not restyled it in my child theme. If I did, it would affect the entire theme, which is not what I want to do. I just need to be able to adjust the header in the widget for the Upcoming Events. So are you saying the Events Calendar widgets are pulling style for the main body of the theme for the sidebar widgets? If it doesn’t have its own style class, it should at least pull the style for the theme’s widget headers. Widget titles for the Twenty Eleven theme are set to 10px on line 1781.

[Cynthia Lockley]

So, the question is, how do I override the widget that is trying to use the style from the main content of the theme.

Hi Cynthia,

So yes the behavior of the plugin is that it will use the style of the theme for elements like this. With your case you’ll want a little more detail so that you can isolate the style in question. To override this, try this:

.tribe-events-adv-list-widget .entry-title {
font-size: 14px;
}

Obviously, feel free to change the value of the font size. Let me know if that helps.

Yes. Thanks that helped. I set it to 1.1em and will have to add a line height and a bottom margin for it. But it is now at a normal widget size header.

Thanks Cynthia. Are you all set here?
