# [Plugin: Events Manager] WordPress Default View Format?

 * I thought I could do this in v4. How do I set up Events Manager to present the
   list view like the WordPress default for its internal Event Manager? In other
   words, I do not want to override the presentation itself. Does this make sense?
   Thanks for any assistance you might be able to offer!

 * hi,
 * you can change events manager formatting at settings > formats/layouts. You can
   also disable formatting at settings > pages > event pages > Override with Formats?-
   no then use single-event.php e.g. [http://wordpress.org/support/topic/events-manager-eventslocation-pages-cant-get-sidebar](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/events-manager-eventslocation-pages-cant-get-sidebar)

 * Hi there,
 * That does not seem to default the page itself to the WP Calendar style. All I
   really want is the ability to create reoccurring events, but I do not want to
   change the way events are displayed in either the widget or the Event page itself.
   Is there no simple way to implement this or am I using the wrong plugin? Thanks
   for your help thus far!

 * Hi,
 * You can create recurring events at Events > Recurring Events and then for the
   calendar you can use the default full calendar using the shortcode [events_calendar]
   in your pages or the events calendar widget. Also, you can try our new WP FullCalendar
   at [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-fullcalendar/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-fullcalendar/)

 * I am sorry to seem thick! When I do that, I continue to see the Events Manager
   Calendar. This is what I would like it look like: [http://ucim.org/church/whats-happening-ucim/](http://ucim.org/church/whats-happening-ucim/)–
   which is the default WP Calendar view. Is there anyway to make this happen? Thanks
   for your patience!

 * I am not sure if this is helpful, but this is the code I am currently using and
   the format that I prefer:
 * [los_events date_format=”l, jS F” time_format=”g:ia” num_posts=”50″ date_window
   =”365″ category=””]

 * [13 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-events-manager-wordpress-default-view-format/#post-2851104)
 * you can do it something like this on your pages
 *     ```
       [events_list_grouped date_format="l, jS F" limit="10" header="<table>" footer="</table>" category="optional, your event category id"]
        <tr>
         <td>#_{d/m/Y}</td>
         <td>#_EVENTLINK</td>
        </tr>
       [/events_list_grouped]
       ```
   
 * or
 * do it using options page at Settings > Formats/layouts > Events Format > Events
   page grouping then format Default event list format Header/List/footer
 * some useful links
