Hello Brian

thanks, that got me closer. With some PHP help from a friend, we figured out the following code works in
/wp-content/themes/[mytheme]/tribe-events/widgets/list-widget.php

<ol class="hfeed vcalendar">
  <?php
		foreach ( $posts as $post ) :
			setup_postdata( $post );		
			$postDate = strtotime( $post->EventStartDate );	
			?>
  <li class="tribe-events-list-widget-events <?php tribe_events_event_classes() ?>">
    <div class="event">
    <div class="date"> <span class="month"> <?php echo date_i18n( 'M', $postDate );  ?> </span><br>
      <?php echo date_i18n( 'd', $postDate ); ?> </div>
    <?php do_action( 'tribe_events_list_widget_before_the_event_title' ); ?>
    <!-- Event Title -->
  '

with the CSS

.event .date {
margin-left: 5px;
padding-top: 6px;
background-image: url(/wp2/wp-content/uploads/resources/datebkgd.png);
width: 71px;
height: 71px;
font-size: 31px;
font-weight: normal;
color: #fff;
text-align: center;
float: right;
}
.event .month {
font-size: 12px;
font-weight: normal;
color: #fff;
line-height: 30px;
text-transform: uppercase;
padding-left: 4px;
}`

cheers,
E.

Hello Brian

thanks for the fast response! I’m sorry I should have been clearer. My challenge is in fact with the “upcoming events” widget, rather than the “events calendar” widget.

I have sorted out the CSS, but need help with the list-widget.php file. In particular, how do I change this code to show month and date?

 <?php
		foreach ( $posts as $post ) :
			setup_postdata( $post );
			?>
  <li class="tribe-events-list-widget-events <?php tribe_events_event_classes() ?>">
                <div class="event">
    <div class="date"> <span class="month"> month </span><br>
      99 </div>
    <?php do_action( 'tribe_events_list_widget_before_the_event_title' ); ?>
    <!-- Event Title -->

What hooks do I use where I’ve got “month” and “99” (the event date) shown?

thanks,
Ernest
