Calendar Does not Show Events on Cell Phones

Hello, the Event Espresso Calendar works beautifully on desktops, but you can not see or click on any events on mobile versions. Please provide step-by step and jargon free instructions on how to create a calendar that is visible on mobile devices. I found forum instructions from 2017 on a mobile plug-in, but it appears to be out of date. Thank you!

Hi,

The calendar documentation has step by step instructions:

If you’d prefer to use a mobile detect plugin that has been more recently updated, this one is also available to download:

Woohoo. Just fixed the desktop, the code was spaced incorrectly. Now I just need help with the mobile.

Mobile Update: Only this one is working,

[phone][ESPRESSO_EVENTS][/phone]
[notphone][ESPRESSO_CALENDAR][/notphone]

I see that the list is in order (earliest event listed first); however, I ideally would like dates on the lists, so folks do not have to click into each event while on their phone. Is there a way to do this?

Thanks!

Hi,

You can add dates to the list display by following these step-by step and jargon free instructions:

1) You go to Event Espresso > Events > Templates
2) You scroll down to the heading “Event List Pages”
3) Set Display Datetimes to Yes
4) Click the Save button.
