• So the folks at this site I’m working on would like to see their events formatted as follows–& because I don’t know what html tags are permitted in these forums, I’m going to avoid the less than & greater than signs.
    h2 date h2
    event listings for the date
    h2 another date h2
    event listings for that date
    etc.

    The problem, of course, is that the templating engine doesn’t appear to have any while looping or conditional logic. Is this sort of thing even possible w/the templating engine or is PHP required? Does the plugin expect any particular names, etc?

    There is a setting in the My-Calendar output section that does a pretty close rendering, but without the heading. There is other info I need to include as well, & customizing the template definitely makes the default output go away, as expected.

    I have bought the user’s guide, & have actually read it through on several occasions. I’ll be honest–it’s a bit confusing–but that isn’t your fault, I don’t think–much has to do w/the fact that screenreaders don’t render the illustrative screenshots, so I’m left to figure it out w/o benefit of those.

    I’ll continue to look at this but these folks would like their site up some time this century, & it’s already taken me far longer than I wanted it to, mostly just because of family emergencies & stuff. So I thought perhaps I’d put my pride in my pocket & ask for a nudge in the right direction.

    Thanks. I do like the plugin. BTW, I referred you to “Events Made Easy” to look at recurrences, but I lied (apologies). I should’ve said “Events Manager” by Marcus Sykes. I looked at so many of these both my mind & my eyes started glazing over.

    Have a blessed weekend.

    I’m not totally clear which section you’re trying to template; is this the list view of the main calendar shortcode?

    It is possible to do more elaborate templating; the built-in templating options are all single-event templates, but there are filters throughout the plug-in for customizing other areas.

    That’s correct–the listview. Thank you.
