    Hello Guys,

    I’ve been using this plug-in for some time now. Still loving it!

    But theres some things looking nasty on the submit event form. I have it so my visitors can submit events that I can approve. But a lot of entry forms dont allign correctly. Now I can fix some with some added CSS in my theme’s CSS file. But theres some things that I can only get neat with a table. At least, thats what I’m thinking of right now.

    Can I do that with some code snippets in the functions file? I’ve read about people changing titles and texts in some event forms with this technique.

    Something else I’d like is, change the text below the submit a title, for instance: Birthday party. Thats something I can do with a code snippet as well I guess?

    Hi,

    Glad you’re enjoying the plugin.

    In most cases, the events form can be made to look exactly how you want with some CSS snippets.

    If you want to change titles and so on, then a bit of PHP might be needed.

    If you can let us know more about what you need, we should be able to point you in the right direction. A link would probably help too. Thanks.

    Sorry! I had the link copied… But forgot to post it gehehe

    http://www.airsoftclubnederland.nl/events/

    At the start theres the event name field. On the bottom it says (in Dutch): Give this event a proper name, for instance: Birthday party.

    I run an airsoft website, so I’d like to change party, to something more in common with our sport 🙂

    If you scroll down you’ll see (in Dutch, but I hope you can find the parts) the start and end time boxes with a standard value of 00:00.

    I’d like to display that line either next to each other

    this event is from [ 00:00] to [00:00]
    all day []

    And if you scroll a bit more from there, theres the location field. All the entry fields are slightly to far down then the text. They dont look properly aligned. Same with the * that belong with the text. They are below the entry fields.

    Now I’ve changed some things in other plug-ins, but I could not figure out what the best course of action would be with this. Might be really easy for some, but I dont see it this evening… Sorry!

    you need to modify template file at events-manager/templates/forms/event-editor.php

    to use templates: http://wp-events-plugin.com/documentation/using-template-files/

    eg.
    wp-content/themes/Your Theme/plugins/events-manager/forms/event-editor.php
