Hi! I would like a short code with the functionality of GO TO DATE like full calendar has. Is there a way to implement this into Event Espresso Calendar? If not do you have a developer you can recommend to do this? thanks

Hi Michael,

Can you give us an example of this or give us a link where we can see this in action?

Hi Garth,
What I am trying to accomplish is this: When I go to my calendar and select the next month like “october” click on an event and then click the back button in my browser (Firefox) it takes me back to the current Month. I would like for it to remember that I was on October. I have found some documentation about adding in a “cookie” to remember this in full calendar. Do you have a snippet of code I can paste in somewhere so that this works properly? Thanks

Hi Michael,

I’m not sure if this helps, but there is a post in our old forums that explains how to do something similar:
https://eventespresso.com/forums/2012/05/can-i-go-to-specific-dateweek-when-clicking-calendar/

Can you please give us a link to the Full Calendar documentation that discusses this feature, so we can investigate further?

Thanks!

I’m sorry I was mistaken about the shortcode. What I really need is for the calendar to remember it’s state: When I go to my calendar and select the next month like “october” click on an event and then click the back button in my browser (Firefox) it takes me back to the current Month. I would like for it to remember that I was on October. I have found some documentation about adding in a “cookie” to remember this in full calendar.

Hi Michael,

In order to do what you are need, you would need to modify the core calendar code and potentially add in session data as well. This is really beyond the scope of support, so I would suggest contacting one of our recommended developers to assist you with the customisation – https://eventespresso.com/developers/event-espresso-pros/
