but they all show the full details, so the page is very long.
How can we make these content boxes small, with a thumbnail image on the left and about 4 lines of text, ending in a ‘Read More…’ type of link at the end, taking them to that event page?
There is a little tag you can add where you want the excerpt to end it looks like this:
<!--more-->
Alternatively you can put the cursor where you want the more tag to go and click the button outlined in this screenshot.
It doesn’t automatically add a read more link, but if you want to add a read more link this can be done by modifying the event_list_display.php template. There’s another forum post where I showed someone else how to add the code:
To make the featured image float to the left you can add this to your custom stylesheet:
.ee-featured-image {
float: left;
margin: 0 20px 0 0;
}
If your WordPress theme does not have a custom stylesheet feature, the Jetpack plugin or the my custom CSS plugin will work too.
