Hi Lorenzo,
Thanks for getting back to me. I managed to figure out the problem. The Ticket URL just wasn’t suitable for the section I was trying to force it into!

A second question though, I’m trying to understand the Templates for the Event pages. If I understand properly, I need to ask someone with more skills than I have to create a template. However, I wonder if I can make any small changes to make my event page look like this demo: http://demoee.org/blog/events/traditional-tour/

This is how it currently looks with no title bars and in general, not very appealing: http://drsketchyireland.com/events/dr-sketchys-dublin-presents-labyrinth/

Is there something straightforward that I can do, or do I need to create a new template?

Thanks!

Hi there,

I’ve split your support post reply from the original support post here since this is a new question:

https://eventespresso.com/topic/registration-email-only-displaying-default-ticket-ee4/#post-144283

The grey background on certain elements can be done with CSS:

.example-class {
    text-shadow: 1px 1px 0 #FFFFFF;
    padding: 10px;
    background: rgba(232, 232, 232, 0.9);}

What elements are you trying to add the grey background to?

Hi Lorenzo,

Apologies, I wasn’t clear. I don’t want a grey background, I just want my event ticketing page to look better. I don’t really understand why, in my page, the Title for “Available Tickets” is in a different format to the Title for “Event Location”. I don’t understand why my text for Event description is stuck in the middle of the page.

I’m not looking to have a very different or “special” Event Page, I just want my page to look acceptable without having to create a new style sheet or template or mess with CSS. Is this possible? The Event Page on EE3 was much better.

I hope this is clearer. Thanks for your help!

Hi, Event Espresso 4 has a basic set of styles and inherits the styling from the theme that is active.

The differences that you are seeing if from the theme that is in use on our demo site. You would need to use CSS to add additional styling.

If there is something specific that you would like to style, then we can share a CSS example.

An example would be great, it would be a useful starting point.
Ideally, I would like the page laid out as follows:

Featured image
Event Name
Event Description
Event Date/Time
Ticket options
Location

I would all headings a uniform size and style.

Can you provide an example? If it can be done from the CSS, I’d like the post information (author, date/time of post) removed.

Thank you!

Hi,

Try this sample coding for changing the order of the content on the page:

https://gist.github.com/lorenzocaum/a33405557a2a065779ea

It can be added to your child theme’s functions.php file (do not include the opening php tag) or a site specific plugin:

https://eventespresso.com/wiki/create-site-specific-plugin-wordpress-site/

Try this CSS to remove the blog post related information:

.espresso_events #single_blog_meta, .espresso_events #author_area {display:none;}

It can be added via a plugin like My Custom CSS or Reaktiv CSS Builder. It can also be added to your child theme’s CSS file if one is in use.
