Hi, is there an alternate way to display events other than the calendar view? My organization likes the functionality of Event Espresso, but we d ot like the calendar view. Are there other options for display?

Thank you.

Hi Carlene,

Sure. Have you looked at our shortcodes? There are several ways to list your events using shortcodes.

Hi Carlene,

It turns out that the calendar is actually an optional view. The standard Event Espresso plugin doesn’t include a calendar (it’s an optional add-on). The built-in way to display events is in a list. With some custom development the events can be listed in a table as well.

Here’s an example of the standard event list:

Here’s an example of a custom table view:

Hi,

Thank you for your answers.

Jonathan, I cannot access the short codes list. It says I must have already purchased.

Josh, thank you for the links. That helps clarify. Is the customized table format an additional add-on or can it be coded from the business level package?

The business level package includes the custom files add-on which has some example table templates that can be used as starter templates. The customized table format example I linked to was based off of one of the included example templates.
