Hey there, Florian! Thanks for getting in touch. We’re stoked that you’re considering The Events Calendar and the PRO version for your project. 🙂

The short answer to your questions about Course Instructor output and a “New” label for courses is: yes, those are both possible.

The plugins (both The Events Calendar and The Events Calendar PRO) are flexible enough for you to customize the templates that comes with them. So, for example, you could override the Week View template and insert the Organizer (or Course Instructor, if that’s what you’ll be calling them) where you’d like it to appear using the tribe_get_organizer() function.

The “New” label might be a little trickier, depending on how you would like it to function. For example. does it expire and hide after a certain amount of time? Or do you add and remove it manually? Again, the templates are flexible enough to be customized, but you may need to do some custom work to make something like this work to suit your exact needs.

You also might be interested in checking out our Themer’s Guide. This is a thoroughly detailed guide oncreating custom layouts by overriding templates. Definitely a must-read for the sort of things you’re looking to do.

Does this help? Please let me know and thanks again for reaching out. 🙂

Cheers!

Hi there, Angie! Thanks for getting in touch and checking out the plugins. 🙂

Good question. Currently, the best way to import a large number of events is to use the CSV importer that comes packaged with our plugin. You can import a number of fields for each event and match them to the proper column headings to ensure they import correctly.

You might be interested in checking out our tutorial on the CSV Importer. It includes a video screencast that walks through the process step-by-step.

Does this help answer your question? Please let me know and thanks again for reaching out. 🙂

Cheers!

Hi there, LeAnne! Thanks for getting in touch and sorry you’re hitting some trouble with the Upcoming Events widget. Let’s see if we can tackle it here together.

Suddenly the dates on our Upcoming Events widget have changed to show the day and date (no year).

Sorry, yes, there were some formatting changes to the list widget that were mentioned in the latest release notes. Your best best to change the date formatting is to do that in Events > Settings > Display. There, you can remove the year from the “Date with year” option. Otherwise, you could refer to the tribe_events_event_scheuke_details() function to customize the output further.

The line spacing is all off also. If you could take a look and advise, I’d be so grateful!

It’s tough to see what the spacing should be, but you can definitely target the CSS for the text. For example to play with the line-height, you could use:

.tribe-events-adv-list-widget ol li {
line-height: 15px; /* change to what works best */
}

Similarly, the title for each event in the list:

div#tribe-events-adv-list-widget-2 h4.entry-title.summary {
line-height: 15px; /* change to what works best */
}

You can find more info on targeting CSS classes in this handy little tutorial, which outlines the process step-by-step.

Let me know if this helps answer your questions. 🙂

Cheers!

Got it, thanks! Can you send me the link to the WP login screen for the test site as well? Thanks!

[Geoff]

Awesome, great job using the filter!

Yes, I’d definitely go the same route with the category route as well, though using the is_tax() conditional to selectively target a category page.

Cheers!

Hi Robert! Thanks for following up and confirming the answer–I appreciate it!

I’ll go ahead and close this thread, but please feel free to hit us up if any other questions come up and we’d be happy to help. 🙂

Cheers!

[Geoff]

Awesome, I’m glad that helped! Great job putting that together.

Good question. Yes, I’m sure a light box would be possible, though I’m afraid that will take a fair amount of custom work. I believe there are some plugins that might help with that, but it will ultimately be something that will need to be built.

I’ll go ahead and close this thread since it seems we got the main question nailed down, but please feel free to hit us up if any other questions pop up–we’d be happy to help. 🙂

Cheers!
Geoff

[Geoff]

Great, let me know how it goes. 🙂

[Geoff]

Awesome job! You’re a rock star–thanks for sharing!

I’ll go ahead and close this thread but please feel free to holler if anything else pops up–we’d be happy to help. 🙂

Hello Robert–nice to see you again. 🙂

The answer for this question will be the same for the thread you posted here:
https://theeventscalendar.com/support/forums/topic/no-results-found-text/

By the way, this example will show you all the possible ways you can change that notice based on what the current view is (e.g. Month, List, Photo, etc.).

Cheers!

Hi there, Robert! Thanks for reaching out.

Good question. We’re a little limited in how much support we can provide for custom development questions like this, but you can try using the following snippet in your theme’s functions.php file. Just change the “Your custom notice goes here” to the notice you would like to have.

Will this work for you? Please let me know. 🙂

Cheers!

Awesome! I’m glad the issue seems to have resolved itself, though the source of the issue is a bit fuzzy. My best guess without being able to see the issue is that there was something going on with caching (either on the front or back end). I haven’t seen any cases where a modified .htaccess file would have that sort of impact, but I suppose it depends on what was in the file.

In any case, I’ll go ahead and close this thread, but please feel free to open a new one if anything else pops up–we’d be happy to help. Same goes for you, Torsten–we’re happy to help you in a new thread if this one hasn’t shed any new light for you.

Cheers!

Hello there, Scott! Thanks for reaching out and welcome back to the forums. 🙂

Good question. Categories are not displayed in the event header / search bar by default. You can link directly to categories from your main menu (e.g. [your-site]/events/category/[category-slug]).

Or, you might consider checking out our Filter Bar add-on, which includes the ability for visitors to filter events by a number of variables, including Categories.

Does this help answer your question? Please let me know.

Cheers!
Geoff
