Change Event Details Layout Order

    Is there any way to change the order of items that appear to the end user when displaying a calendar event?

    For example I would like the map to appear at the bottom as the event details (from the editor) are more important as well moving the event organiser further down. Ideally I would like the end user of the plug-in to do this themselves, perhaps even on an event by event basis, maybe by a drag and drop option of the various sections.

    Thanks – John

  • Hey, @jxburns!

    We appreciate your time posting your request.
    Unfortunately, Event Calendar WD plugin does not have the mentioned feature.

    You can change the default ordering of single event page structure by altering the plugin code, but the end users cannot make the changes themselves.

    We are happy to provide you the steps to modify the plugin code, if you wish to do that.
    Cheers!

    Knowing how to do it would be a start so yes please.

    Can I suggest this may be a good enhancement to the product sometime?

    Thanks – John

    Hi, @jxburns!

    It would be wonderful if you could add your suggestion to our Submit Your Idea page.

    As for the custom changes, if you are familiar with PHP, you can modify the position of location map on single event page the following way.

    Please open /event-calendar-wd/views/single-event.php file of your website, and find the following if statement:

    if ($ecwd_event_show_map == 1 && $ecwd_event_latlong)

    You will need to change this if along with its content to the necessary section.

    But in case you don’t have PHP experience, we don’t recommend trying this since a small mistake can stop your website from functioning correctly.

    Thanks! Have a good day!

    Will do re submission.

    Thanks for the location of where to change. I’m sort of OK with PHP but no expert. Case of back up the file first as always and trial/error.

    Hey, @jxburns!

    That’s a perfect solution, you can create a backup of single-event.php file, and re-upload to your site in case it breaks.

    Also, thank you for submitting the idea, we appreciate your kind contribution!

    P.S. We hope you can spread the word and tell your friends about Event Calendar WD. If you have time, please share your thoughts about the product here.

    Cheers!
