Expanding too much in agenda view

Hi mario83,

1. This is new functionality of the 1.8.3 version. If you wish to change this please:

replace: <?php echo apply_filters( ‘the_content’, $event->post->post_content ) ?>

with

<?php echo substr( apply_filters( ‘the_content’, $event->post->post_content ), 0, 35 ) ?>

File location – agenda.php
line 94

2. Please provide a link and we can take a closer look and provide you with some code to change this.

I hope this helps!

Hi Richard,

1) I tried that but it breaks the agenda view by no applying any css. Don’t know why.

2) Here is the link: https://www.centroamate.com/agenda-de-eventos/. On the left sidebar, the widget should have a slight darker background that after upgrading only covers the title of the widget, but not the whole of it.

By the way, is there a way to open the events in the agenda view if using IE7 or IE8? It seems not to be working…

Many thanks for your help!

Hi Mario,

To edit the background colour of your widget, you need to edit the code below (the bolded part) and copy and paste it into the bottom of your wp-content/themes-ai1ec/vortex/style.css

#sidebar .widget {
background-attachment: scroll !important;
background-clip: border-box !important;
background-color: transparent !important;
background-image: url(“images/widget-bg.png”) !important;
}

*You need to change the background colour to whatever you’d like, and remove the “background image” line.

In regards to your expanded Agenda view – there will be many options to customize what you want to appear in v1.9 – This upgrade will be available in roughly 2 weeks.

Just a reminder as well, you need to create a child theme before editing your css or al; of your customizations and changes will overwritten on upgrade. Here are the steps that you can follow: https://help.time.ly/customer/portal/articles/541097-how-do-i-create-a-child-theme-

Thanks

Hi Mario,

I am going to mark this as resolved as we have not heard from you in over a month.

Hi

I’m looking for the same solution regarding the Agenda view expanded view, only for version 1.9.3.

How can I restrict the agenda view from diplaying the entire post content, and restict it to just a preview like in previous versions?

I tried the above code change but it messed up the formatting completely.

Appreciate your help.

Thanks,
Si

Another request for a fix; I have a 600×800 image in a post, and the whole thing shows up in agenda view. Looks pretty nasty…
