    Hi All,

    I have a full calendar showing various events here. Is it possible to change the bullet indent so that things are aligned more to the left so the space is not wasted.

    Many thanks

    James

  • Hi James,

    Do you want to change the bullet icon or remove it altogether?

    Hi,

    I don’t want to change or move the bullet icon, I would just like to move the indent so everything starts on the left of the cell rather than in the middle.

    Thanks

    I am not part of support just some dude…

    You have a very nice website.

    In your child theme or using an CSS Editor…
    you can try to put this in “style sheet” for your Theme.

    .eventful ul {
    	margin: 0 0 1.5em 0 !important;
    }
    .eventful-today ul {
        margin: 0 0 1.5em 0 !important;
    }
    .eventful-post ul {
        margin: 0 0 1.5em 0 !important;
    }

    Using the Inspector of my browser (I used Firefox…) I tested these..

    Also there is a companion plugin for Events Manager, that is a Calendar with added options and more stylish, you may like.
    https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/wp-fullcalendar/
    If you use the plugin… don’t forget to “tweak” it’s settings..
    Settings -> WP Fullcalendar

    In Events Manager…After you install it.. there are a few extra settings you can use…
    Events -> Settings
    General (the tab)
    scroll down to…
    Full Calendar Options

    You may not need to use those CSS edits mentioned above if you use the WP FullCalendar plugin.

    Hi robswaimea,

    Many thanks for the suggestion – I have now installed WP Fullcalendar and the calendar looks a lot better on the page.

    Also many thanks for the nice comment about the site. Positive comments are always nice especially to a none professional designer.

    Thanks

    Glad you got it worked out and the Official Support most likely appreciate your courtesy to come back and mark the topic as resolved .

    In the plugin you are now using WP Fullcalendar…. there is an option.
    Under “Events” (that I am guessing you ‘ticked off’ to make it work)
    “Choose which taxonomies you want to see listed as search options on the calendar.”
    If you ‘tick’ the one for “Event Categories (event-categories)”

    It would give you a drop down box for your Categories.
    Ok.. so the reason I am saying all this stuff…
    Is the ‘new’ drop down box for Categories would be displayed… with little Color Boxes.

    Because I can’t see the drop down box that would be displayed…

    I am guessing you chose that “green” color for your weekend Category… I am just guessing here again.

    A little constructive criticism here on my part….
    I would suggest you make that Category Color darker… that way the Text of the Event will be a lot easier to read… as the Text is White.

    Depending upon certain Themes, and WordPress itself…. there is an automatic,
    Text Color / On Background Color.
    ie:Background Color Dark = Light Text Color
    ie:Background Color Light = Dark Text Color.

    And with that… a threshold.. on what is applied.
    So sometimes a “white” Text… gets applied on a Background…
    that is not so beneficial.
    I can’t test it on my end… but try changing the Category color and see what happens.

    ALSO… in WP Fullcalendar… there is an option to change the
    “jQuery CSS Theme?”
    Maybe start with that and see if your Weekend Events look better.
    Or make the Category Color Darker… as mentioned above.

    Also… if I may suggest.. on your Single Event..
    ie: https://graciousstreetmethodist.org.uk/GSMC/events/sunday-morning-service-2017-05-07/

    You might make the Map bigger… if you don’t know how to do this please start another Topic. That way others may benefit from the solution that I or Support may give.

    I hope I haven’t violated any “rules” by my suggestions and constructive insights.
    Hope these suggestions make your site the best it can be.

    Cheers.
