    Hi,iCal is now working fine (since update to 5.3.6.4).

    Now I would like to change the URL link. It is now just displayed as text ‘iCal’ but I rather would use a small image to click on.

    Struggled through the code but could not find where to make changes (I’m not a experienced PHP-developer, just in the learning phase).
    Is it possible?

    Before anyone tries to give an answer: I think I’ve found the answer already.
    There is a code part in /classes/em_event.php where the format of the link is given. I will try to make changes in a copy in the theme subdirectory for EM.

    Hi all,

    almost there but not quite satisfied with my solution.
    What did I do:
    changed some code in classes/em_event.php
    This is the code:

    case '#_EVENTICALLINK':
	$replace = $this->get_ical_url();
	if( $result == '#_EVENTICALLINK' ){
		$replace = '<a href="'.esc_url($replace).'"><img src="http://www.cabrioxperience.nl/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/ical.png"></a>';
}

    The result is a link from the given image, just what I intended.
    BUT: in case of an update this change will be lost. Tried to put this code in the theme directory ….plugins//event_manager/classes
    but that does not work.
    Any suggestions?

    Instead you should use #_EVENTICALURL along with html in your event formats to create a link with an image there.

    Thx Marcus!
    This is far much better indeed. Did not know this placeholder.
    The EM is very flexible, this proves it.
    I am very pleased with it and will encourage others to use it.
