Hello Geoff, thanks for your prompt reply.

If I am reading it correctly, you are explaining how I could remove the View More link.

I don’t need to remove the link, I need to reposition it to the top so it doesn’t get hidden when text overflows.

Yes, it is already at the bottom of the window, like your screenshot. I need it to be at the top of the window so it doesn’t disappear when the text overflows.

I am aware of the procedure for overriding the template by mimicking the directories on my site, and have already made a few small changes.

But I cannot figure out how to either move the the View More link to the top or to but an <a href=” around the Upcoming Events headline. The result is that when an event has an image, it may push the text out of the box, with the result that visitors have nowhere to click to see upcoming events.

Your help is greatly appreciated.

Regards,

mw

Ummm, looking into it deeper, I realize that after I had installed the free Events Calendar awhile back, I modified the list-widget.php to show the image, which is what you see in the screenshot above. Sorry, had forgotten all about that.

I’ve set it up again with the pro and added this line to the single-event.php: <div class=”tribe-events-event-thumb”><?php echo get_the_post_thumbnail( $post->ID, array(183,275) );?></div>

That shows the image. So I guess what I need is an if statement to wrap around that. If category = Featured, show image, else don’t show image.

Can you show me an example of how that should be written?

Though still would like to know if it’s possible, and if so how, to show just a single, designated, event in a widget with featured image.

Thanks again, and sorry for any confusion.

Hi Cliff, sorry I was unclear the first time. Sorry, also, if I’m missing something obvious, which I suspect. Anyway…

On the front page of my site, I want to show a featured event and then a list of the next five upcoming events. I would like a photo with the featured event, but no photo with the upcoming events.

I am using the Events List Widget twice in a widget area. The first instance shows an event I have categorized as “Featured.” The second instance shows the five upcoming events. Both show the featured image. I want to see the featured image with the featured event, but not with the upcoming events.

What am I missing? The widget has a list of things to display, or not, such as city, address, etc. But image is not a choice.

Ideally, I would like a widget that would just show one event of my choosing. As is, my workaround is to categorize the event as “Featured,” but that is a ponderous workaround as I will have to go in and uncategorized it and categorize a new one when the featured event passes, as I can only have one at a time.

Thanks, and again, sorry if I’m missing something drop dead obvious.
