    Hi,
    is it possible to display the events list in this way?

    WEDNESDAY 20 JULY
    time eventname description
    time eventname description
    time eventname description

    THURSDAY 21 JULY
    time eventname description
    time eventname description
    time eventname description

    I would like to use Events Manager for the site of a local paper that publishes a calendar with all events in the region. So we have between 10 and 20 events per day and I want to group them per day in the list.

    Please let me know if this can be done before I buy the pro version.

    cheers, Daan

    Thanks I have seen those but cant find any clue to how easy or difficult it is to achieve what I want. I have no problem with altering what gets displayed and in what order etc. through the preferences but I cant figure out how I would go about grouping the list in the way I need.

    you’d need to calculate dates yourself and run a loop. whether you call the events before and filter or call events per date is up to you.

    it’s not that hard with a little php know how and using the EM_Events object. sort of thing I don’t mind whipping up in the pro forum 😉

    I need to do this as well. No problem calculating dates and going through a loop. However, not quite sure how to do this. Do you modify the events-list template? I’d really like to use this plugin – it works in every other respect. Any leads in the right direction would help.

    Thanks,

    yes, you need to modify templates. please see the docs @ http://wp-events-plugin.com/documentation/using-template-files/
