The events in our calendar(https://mcwfc.us/event-calendar/) show up on a desktop computer but no longer show up on a mobile phone.Any ideas how to fix this? |
Hi there, Your site’s theme has some styles to force tables to not look like tables on mobile, specifically this code:
That’s in To fix this you should be able to add something like:
To Appearance -> Customize -> Additional CSS. |

Thanks for that Tony! I still have the core issue and that is that the events you see on the desktop computer don’t show up on mobile. If you go to https://mcwfc.us/event-calendar/ on your desktop computer you will see 9 events in September but on mobile you see 2. What is going wrong? Is it a setting that I am unaware of? |
I forgot about an additional change I’d made when checking into this, again the above issue from your themes styles, its completely changing how all tables are displayed which then breaks all of the positioning calculations for the events, change the above to:
Does that fix it? |

Thanks for sending that so quickly! It looks good in my desktop browser when I make it narrower but on my phone I don’t see any events at all. Look at it on your phone please. Any other ideas? |
I’m already looking at it on my phone and get exactly the same result as when I emulate mobile within Chrome. The updated CSS above is not in use on your site yet, can you please update the above so I can test it with that. |

This is what I’m getting in Chrome when emulating mobile: https://monosnap.com/file/GEoShqM2Xa7RwUvc1a360b5ZV3vHs7 If I add the CSS I gave you to the page and then force the calendar to re-render, it looks like this: https://monosnap.com/file/i3R4vqpcQuOnLx8KYilzxtfXYaLLZU I can’t easily test that CSS change and re-render the calendar on mobile but I get exactly the same view as the first screenshot when I load the page, once you’ve updated the custom CSS I can double-check on mobile to confirm. |

I just cleared the cache on our server and now it see the same. When I click on an event it doesn’t take me to see the event. Does it work for you? |
|
The above note is when holding the phone vertically. If I rotate the phone 90 degrees I see the events and can click on them to go to them. I think I would prefer the events be in a list format on the phone. How do we accomplish that? |
Yes, you need to click on the small event bar, not the calendar day itself.
We have some details on how you can do this here: https://eventespresso.com/wiki/events-calendar-add-on/#how_to_calendar_list_on_small_screens |
