    Hi!

    I would like to know how to set the title link in the event details pop-up?

    When someone clicks on the event in full calendar mode a pop-up with details about event shows up. The first line is the title of the event and this is linked to nowhere.

    So I have the question how to set this to point somewhere or otherwise what is the purpose of it if it doesn’t point anywhere?

    Thanks in advance!

    My Calendar > Settings > Output : Event Details Options. Adjust the setting for ‘Event title template’ to include a link.

    Thanks, Joe! This is what I was looking for. I have used {link_title}.

    I have to say that this templating aproach is really good idea!

    Now here is next logical question. How to get rid of a “fake” link for those events that do not have a URL link set?

    To give some explaination. Some of my events have a links set and some don’t. I would like to have titles to be linked only if there is a link set for the event. Otherwise it is misleading if all apear to be links but only some go somewhere in most do not.

    Perhaps I have some wrong setting somewhere that overrides everything or it may be a bug.

    According to Event Template Tags section:
    {title}
    Displays the title of the event.
    {link_title}
    Displays title of the event as a link if a URL is present, or the title alone if no URL is available.

    So, since {title} was initially set (by default I believe) how come I had and still have ( using {link_title} ) link like the following when there is not link set for the event. Link example in event details:

    For quite a while now – since version 1.11.0 – the title in the grid format is always expressed as a link. The variation is on which link is used. This is so that the entire title acts as a trigger to pull up the pop-up details.

    Thanks Joe for your fast reply.

    I have to appologize, but I have forgot to mention that I was talking about mini calendar.

    I was not careful enough to notice, that there is a difference between details pop-up in a full and mini mode/view.

    In mini calendar when you click on a date (that has some events of course) the details pop-up appears. And here is the title I’m talking about. This title is always a link as described in a previous post, which I believe may be ambiguous to visitors (from visitor perspective some links work and some do not).

    Thanks again!

    I can see what you mean, and I’ll definitely give it consideration.
