Laura, have you looked at https://theeventscalendar.com/tutorial-integrating-the-events-calendar-w-genesis/ ?
It might help.Laura, check out the Themer’s Guide over in the Useful Links section. You’ll have to create an ‘events’ folder inside of your theme. Then you’ll have to put a copy to eco-page-template.php into that folder. It’s in this file that you’ll have to add the indicated code fragment to place the legend. What my CSS plugin does is make it so if you also have an override file for events.css in this folder, you only need to have the override CSS, you won’t need to copy all the CSS from the original file.
Adding an empty ‘events’ folder to your theme, in an of itself, shouldn’t cause any issues. Also, v1.3.1 fixes some issues with the links in the legend. 😉
Joyce, I can confirm the same behavior. I think what’s going on is that once a modification to a repeating event is performed, it will touch every event that fits into it’s repeating pattern. To counter this any variations in the repeating pattern, like deletions of individual events within that pattern, would have to be stored within the database so that a ‘Save to All Occurrences’ would specifically know when to skip.
Laura, you should check out the new The Events Calendar Category Colors v1.3. It has options for creating a legend. On your site it would mean automatic updates to your legend’s colors without any images. 😉
Laura, glad you like the plugin. I’m hoping it allows for much easier customization and people and experiment a little more with their category colors. Additionally, it really helps fix the problem some have with getting their tooltips to match.
Regarding the custom CSS plugin, did you get an error with activation? If so, what did it say. Also, you do still need an extra “events” folder in your theme’s main directory. It’s just now you don’t need to copy all the CSS from the core “events.css” or “tribe-community-events.css” files into your customizations.
If you want to contact me off list regarding getting the custom CSS plugin to work, please do. My goal was to make this just work. I’m still working on some fixes, especially since I don’t have Community Events installed. Latest, unreleased version on Github, https://github.com/afragen/events-calendar-user-css/
Just a suggestion for anyone wanting a must simpler method of colorizing your month calendar, The Calendar Events Category Colors plugin, http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/the-events-calendar-category-colors/
I’ve got a drop in solution to backgrounds and stripes. I still need to think about how to make a legend, but it’s on the todo list.
Check out the new version of The Events Calendar Category Colors v1.2.2. It now has an option to color the left border.
This is actually done on purpose, line 251 of events-calendar-pro.php
We’ll have to wait for a Dev to comment on whether this should behavior should change.
That’s kinda what I thought. Unfortunately, that would be far outside the scope of my plugin. But, you could add something like the following to the appropriate category CSS. If you are using my plugin, look to where the background-color is set and add the following to that selector.
{ background: url(‘myimage.gif’) no-repeat left center; }
You will have to add the url for your images and add the extra CSS to your theme. The above code fragment requires the specific category selectors for your site. If you are using my plugin then you can look at the page source to see the correct selectors.
I’m not quite clear on what you mean by icons and where you want them. The stripes, I’m sure can be done.
If there’s enough interest in event coloring of this style I’m sure it wouldn’t take too much effort for me to add it as an option to The Events Calendar Category Colors plugin.
Anyone else want this?
