    Bummer. The solution I posted above stopped working after an update a few weeks ago, which I just realized. Tom O’Brian’s solution is also not working for me; added it into my theme’s CSS inserts and it changed nothing (no cacheing plugins on my site.)

    I have fooled around in the Vortex theme’s CSS file and changed the white-space: to normal where appropriate, with no impact to the site’s front end view. It seems to me from the time that I’ve spent on this today that the arrangement of the files since the most recent update is very different, and I’m not sure where else to attempt to make changes to either allow text to wrap in month view- calendar, or to insert a break between time and event title. Any updated ideas on this issue?

    Hi MegT

    I found this on the Thenly support forum but haven’t had a chance to try it yet. Hopefully it will work for you though!

    Thanks, Jo!

    From what I can tell from my early morning perusal of the related CSS, I have already made all of those changes (it is more of the same… change white-space: to normal from no wrap,) with no results ?? I don;t mean to be a pain and ungrateful, but I wish they would get a fix of this or add it as an optional setting. I’d gladly pay for the solution, and clearly I’m not alone in wanting it!

    Hello MegT,

    We solved this problem wrapping problem by adding the following code to “header.php” and created a new php file called “calendar_override.css” in our themes CSS folder. This solution is much simpler and will not be overwritten each time the plugin gets updated.

    (1) HEADER.PHP – Insert the following code inside your <head> tag within the “header.php” file.
    <?php
    wp_enqueue_style( ‘calendar_override’, get_bloginfo(‘template_directory’).’/css/calendar_override.css’ );
    ?>

    (2) Create an new php file and name it “calendar_override.css” and save it to your active “theme/ css folder”. Now paste the following code inside the “calendar_override.css” file and save. We made some color design changes and width changes to work best with our website but does also fix that annoying text wrap issue.

    .ai1ec-container{
    width:800px;
    margin:0 auto;
    }
    .ai1ec-month-view .ai1ec-event{
    height:auto !important;
    }
    .ai1ec-month-view .ai1ec-event,
    .ai1ec-week-view .ai1ec-event,
    .ai1ec-oneday-view .ai1ec-event{
    max-height:none !important;
    overflow:visible !important;
    white-space: normal !important;
    }
    /*calendar days of week header*/
    .ai1ec-month-view th, .ai1ec-week-view th, .ai1ec-week-view .ai1ec-hour-marker div, .ai1ec-week-view .ai1ec-allday-label, .ai1ec-oneday-view th, .ai1ec-oneday-view .ai1ec-hour-marker div, .ai1ec-oneday-view .ai1ec-allday-label {
    color: #000000 !important;
    text-shadow: 0 0px 0 #FFFFFF;
    }
    /*calendar days*/
    .ai1ec-month-view th, .ai1ec-week-view th, .ai1ec-oneday-view th {
    background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #AAAAAA !important;
    border: medium none !important;
    padding: 0.5em !important;
    }
    /*calendar week tint*/
    .ai1ec-month-view .ai1ec-date {
    background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #EEEEEE;
    color: #000000;
    font-size: 9pt;
    height: 18px;
    line-height: 18px;
    margin-bottom: 1px;
    padding: 0 0.4em;
    text-align: right;
    text-shadow: 0 1px 0 #FFFFFF;
    }
    /*calendar empty boxes*/
    .ai1ec-month-view td.ai1ec-empty {
    background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #EEEEEE !important;
    }

    Tom,
    First off, your calendar looks awesome- kudos.

    It scared the bejeeezus out of me, but I followed your steps above. Unfortunately, no joy as of yet. Here are some theories as to why- perhaps you’d care to weigh in??

    1. My theme (atahualpa) doesn’t have a CSS folder- the CSS files appear to be in the main folder. I tried your fix as written, placing the “calendar_override.css” into the main theme folder instead, and then when that didn’t work, I tried modifying the code from your changes to header.php to read:

    <?php
wp_enqueue_style( 'calendar_override', get_bloginfo('template_directory').'/atahualpa377/calendar_override.css' );
?>

    where atahualpa377 is my main theme folder which contains various other CSS files like style.css, editor-style.css, etc…
    Possibly I’ve got it in the wrong spot?

    2. I wasn’t sure exactly WHERE in header.php to place the code from step one. I see the <head> tag, with lots of various stuff below it. I wasn’t sure if the new code should go right below the head tag, or somewhere further down. I opted to place it below the <!– Header –> and above the <!– Main Body –> section. Should it be moved up or down perhaps?

    You can place this code anywhere within the head tag – since you don’t have a CSS folder try modifying the code in “header.php” as follows:

    <?php
    wp_enqueue_style( ‘calendar_override’, get_bloginfo(‘template_directory’).’calendar_override.css’ );
    ?>

    Also, send me the URL for the calendar page because I will be able to debug further by looking to see if the path is correct.

    Thanks.

    Thanks for your continued interest, Tom! Made the changes as suggested above.
    The calendar is at: https://braytonschoolpto.com/calendar/

    Sorry – code should read.

    <?php
    wp_enqueue_style( ‘calendar_override’, get_bloginfo(‘template_directory’).’/calendar_override.css’ );
    ?>

    Also, the “wp_enqueue_style” code is not within or between <head> and </head> tags. Inside of your header.php – place the code right before the </head> tag. You should be set after these changes.

    Good luck.

    Tom-
    Where do I send the enormous batch of chocolate chip cookies you deserve??

    This worked- thank you so very much! This solves a multitude of problems for me!

    No troubles. I was glad to be able to help. Good luck with your website.

    Thanks tom.

    Due to the age of this thread, I am marking this as ‘resolved.’

    Hello,
    I am with a non-profit organization called SoundWaters and I am having the same issue with the WP Google Calendar text not wrapping. I have read this thread and tried a few things but I’m off somewhere. Can someone take a look and let me know if there is a setting in the code to edit the wrapping? The site is soundwaters.org and the plugin is in the lower right widget area

    Hi Jeffw400,

    Unfortunately we are unable to provide support for the WP Google Calendar. We only provide support for the ai1ec available from https://time.ly
