[Plugin: Ajax Event Calendar] Calendar colors

The theme you are using is conflicting with the calendar style. To fix your specific implementation requires knowledge of css. Explaining how to modify your theme’s style falls outside the realm of support I provide.

thanks for the concern, I realized that I wanted.

I don’t understand why you can build a plugin that has options to easily change the colors for each category but you didn’t create a simple option to change the background color of the entire calendar. I shouldn’t have to edit the css style sheet just to select a color of the entire calendar. My calendar is clear on every day and it’s the same color as the background of my site.

On another thread you told someone who asked this same question to just do a search for “ajax event calendar css”. (That was not an answer). Yet I did do a search in WordPress forums for “ajax event calendar background color” and “ajax event calendar css color” and all kinds of other combinations for this simple thing but there’s really not much to find.

Even here on this thread you didn’t answer the question on how to edit the css to change the background color. You wrote.

“Hmm…
Try looking at these lines, and adding colors as desired:

.fc-grid th{text-align:center}
.fc-grid .fc-day-number{float:right;padding:0 2px}
.fc-grid .fc-other-month .fc-day-number{filter:alpha(opacity=30);opacity:0.3}
.fc-grid .fc-day-content{clear:both;padding:2px 2px 1px}
.fc-grid .fc-event-time{font-weight:700}”

What does that mean? Or where do I add the color for the background? This should be simple. People install plugins so they don’t have to write code. And just changing the color of a calendar with a clear background doesn’t seem like it should be this hard. I can go through code and find colors. (#FFFFFF or #800000 etc) but in that code above there is no color hex to change.

I’ll keep looking through these forums but I thought this would be the first thing someone would want to change if they used your plugin. Everything else works fine with this plugin. I just don’t understand why you overlooked this one simple thing.

This particular issue is covered in the FAQ.

No it is not. I have been through the FAQ. That’s why I come here to get more specific information.

I’m assuming you mean this.

“I want to modify some of the styles in the calendar. View your site using Firefox browser with Firebug plugin activated. Read about using Firebug and learn how to “inspect” specific page elements for styling. Once you have settled on the look you want, add the overriding style to your theme’s css not the custom.css file (the custom.css file is not preserved when the plugin is updated). Confirm your changes with Firebug, it’s an invaluable tool for web design.”

That is not an appropriate answer.

Or this?

“How can I change current day background and font color? Add the .fc-state-highlight class to your theme stylesheet and apply the desired color rules.”

That is also not an appropriate answer.

So no, this particular issue is NOT covered in the FAQ.

I need help with this as well.

I would like to change the blue colors for the left side bar.

Please see this website: https://www.dostgolf.org/upcoming-events/

I would like to change the color of the list of upcoming events that appear on the left side.

Thanks
