Can the day in the month be omitted when creating events?

    My organisation wants to put together a schedule of events (around 40) covering a five-year period. We know the month in which these events will take place, but beyond six months from now we don’t know the exact day. So I need to find a way of omitting the day. I tried to delete this manually when creating an event, but it defaults to 1 of the month. This would be misleading to people visiting our site. So is there a way to override — but in select cases, as we have events we know the date of, as well as past events — this value, so the events would be, for example, March 2016, or October 2017, etc.?

    If the above is not possible, I’m fine doing by CSS. In my pages, because I use the CSS Plus plugin, I can add CSS for particular pages. The problem is that the CSS is not taking, even with !important added. I’ve tried the following without success:

    .single-tribe_events .tribe-events-schedule h3 {
    color: #fff !important;
}

    and/or:

    .tribe-events-schedule {
    display: none !important;
}
.single-tribe_events h2.tribe-events-single-event-title {
    font-size: 33px !important;
    margin-bottom: 30px !important;
    width: 80% !important;
}

    The latter half of the second attempt is just to create spacing between the title and the featured image once the time and date are removed.

    Am I missing something here?

    Hi immanence,

    This sounds like a cool project, but it really is outside the scope of what our plugin is designed for. As outlined in our forum guidelines, we aren’t able to help with these kinds of customizations. But we do have some handy resources that might be helpful for you:

    ? Themer’s Guide – provides an overview of how to customize the plugin’s frontend appearance.
    ? Tutorials – useful tips and tricks for changing how the plugin looks and behaves.
    ? Technical Docs – provides an overview of the classes and functions in each plugin

    Good luck, and thanks for using The Events Calendar!

    I’ve had to hack the nelly out of this plugin to get it to work with my real world situation. I understand you can’t help everyone individually. But in your development path I hope you find a way to give more options to people. Keep up the great work

    Hi immanence,

    I’m glad you were able to find a solution. If you have any specific ideas about how we could give you more options or better fit your needs, I’d love to have you submit them on our UserVoice forum. That will help get your ideas on our radar for a future build, and allows you to stay updated on our progress.

    Best,
    Leah
