Hi Mike,

This is actually somewhat difficult and can’t supply the time necessary to be able to help you out directly here. You’ll need to work on it on your own or hire someone to help you. I spoke with someone else on the team and here’s generally what they suggested:

1. I’d tag special events “Special” or whatever
2. I’d write a new function like move_to_top(array &$list_of_events, $index_to_prioritize) that moves for instance item 4 to the top
3. I’d iterate through the days events, check if each event is tagged special and if it is call move_to_top

You’ll want to work this in along with the display_day() function in /wp-content/plugins/the-events-calendar/views/table.php

Perhaps that will give you some hints as to the direction you’ll need to go. Good luck!

Hi Jeffrey,

Not currently without some customization that we won’t be able to help with. We do have this coming in our 3.0 version though! Check out our preview for more: https://theeventscalendar.com/events-3-0-preview/ I could provide you with some resources for firms that may be able to build this for you if you need it now. Let me know.

Hi Joshua,

It’s still possible to use ECP in this way for your custom fields but you’ll need to split values with PHP and it starts to get messy. For example, you could use the explode() function to help you with this: http://php.net/manual/en/function.explode.php – that’s not ideal though. It’d be better to use the plugin I suggested above or find another solution.

Hi Joshua,

Ok, that helps. What I would suggest is to not use our plugin for custom fields and use this one instead: http://www.advancedcustomfields.com/ – much better handling of data and much easier to get to it. So, if you were to setup a checkbox field, then just check out the documentation for how to get to that data: http://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/field-types/checkbox/

Does that help?

Hi Jeff, let me see if I can help point you in the right direction. So this is the main CSS for the arrow:

.tribe-events-widget-nav a {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
display: block;
font-weight: normal;
text-decoration: none;
font-size: 16px;
width: 16px;
height: 16px;
overflow: hidden;
background: url(images/mini-ajax-arrow-sprite.png) -16px -16px no-repeat;
}

…and then the next and prev links use specific code to align the sprite:

.tribe-events-widget-nav a.next-month {
right: 0;
background-position: 0 -16px;
}

So the first thing you would want to do is either use a different sprite or use individual images for each of the links. Then, just change the width and height and you should be good to go.

Does that help?

Hi jkash23686,

Can you share your code here so I can see what you’re working with? Please post to http://snippi.com and paste here.

Thanks,

Hi macymidd,

There have been a number of approaches to this posted in the forums. Here are two I found:

Reoccuring event shows multiple times in loop

customize output of recurring events: list title/desc once, all dates under that

You can try those two out. Otherwise you’ll need to work on a solution yourself or wait until 3.0

I hope that helps!

Hi Joshua,

There are some limitations with this. It might help to know more about what you’re trying to accomplish so I can provide some suggestions.

[Jonah]

Perfect! Let us know if you need anything else 🙂

Hi Heather,

I’m sorry to hear that and I’m sorry we couldn’t get this resolved sooner for you. Please email pro [at] tri [dot] be with your receipt and request and someone should be able to help you from there.

Thanks,
Jonah

You’re welcome Jon, sorry I don’t have more to offer here. If you’d like to request this as a future feature, you can do that here: http://tribe.uservoice.com

Hi Ryan,

Before I create a ticket for this it’d be helpful to know that it’s not the theme either. That’s my hunch but it’d be good to know for certain.

Thanks,
Jonah

Hi Jon,

Unfortunately at this time the plugin does not sync anything. So once you’ve imported events into WordPress, any changes you make on Facebook will not carry over. The only thing you can do currently is to delete the events in WordPress and re-import.

Does that help?

[Jonah]

Which date picker is this, on the back end or front end? Do you have a screenshot you can post? If on the front end, can you share the link here so I can take a look?

Thanks,
Jonah

Hi jkash23686,

Sure thing. All you need to do is make a copy of /wp-content/plugins/the-events-calendar/views/table.php and place in an ‘events’ folder in your active theme. Then find line 42 and change to:

echo 'daysOfWeek[$dayOfWeek]) . '" abbr="' . $tribe_ecp->daysOfWeek[$dayOfWeek] . '">' . $tribe_ecp->daysOfWeekShort[$dayOfWeek] . '';

Does that help?
