Hi – I have just upgraded from much older version and am trying to create a table the same as the screenshot for ‘Event table’ – https://eventespresso.com/wiki/custom-template-add-on/ .
Using the shortcode [EVENT_CUSTOM_VIEW] I can get the basic features (http://www.test.lifetimetennis.co.uk/ee-calendar/) but am wondering if I need to then make further customisations (CSS etc) to achieve the same style (or am I missing something here – everything else is so intuitive I thought it was worth asking?).
Many thanks
James

Hi James,

The event table bases most of its styling off of the theme itself, so as to better integrate with the look of your site.

E.g.
Twentytwelve http://take.ms/jgTv7

You can indeed use CSS to modify the they of the table. For example to spread out your table you could use:

tr.espresso-table-row {
height: 40px;
}

Which would result in the rows being spaced out more http://take.ms/Ul9Ox

Ok thanks – great to hear the spacing can be achieved easily.
The two other things I also want to achieve are:
1. Having the horizontal lines appear
2. Showing a ‘time’ column as per example on the wiki
3. Is it possible to show any other information in the column (specifically Price & Finish time, finish date)?

thanks for your help

Hi,

1) Again, some basic CSS for that

tr.espresso-table-row {
border-bottom: #eee 1px solid;
}

2) That looks like an error on our (well my) part. The image looks like it is either from a modified version of the templates or an older version, so my apologies for that, I will get the image updated.

You can of course create a custom template that includes a time column: https://eventespresso.com/wiki/custom-templates-add-on-create-a-template/

3) This would definitely require a custom template.

The custom templates are not that hard to make, but you would need to be/hire/know someone that can handle basic PHP code.
