Single event view, too many columns

    It seems the single event view has changed, and I don’t see any way to manipulate it.

    I’ve got the latest All-in-One Event Calendar 2.1.3, and I’m not sure when it happened, but the view for a single event now is not good.

    There are three columns, and all the text (when, where, etc) is all bunched to the left in a skinny column, then the map, then the buy ticket button.

    I’d like to put the map below, and leave one fat column for the text and a skinnier one for the buy ticket button on the right.

    How can I do that? Thanks for any help.

    How about this? Any All-in-One techs out there have an answer? It didn’t used to do this, and it’s ugly.

    You can either change it using CSS, or you can create a calendar child theme and change it by editing event-single.twig (copy the default version from the vortex theme) to change the behaviour of how it looks.

    I couldn’t figure out what to use in CSS to change it — can you help with that?

    Also, I’m using the Gamma calendar theme. I don’t see any event-single.twig files in that theme. What would I use for that?

    If a file isn’t present in a theme, then it falls back to the Vortex theme.

    Gamma is a bare-bones theme that simply provides some CSS changes on top of Vortex. The twig files will all be in the twig directory in the Vortex theme.

    Note: If you want to override a file in a calendar child theme to do nothing, simply create a blank (0 byte) file with the appropriate name.

    eg: If you wanted to remove popups completely, you can create a blank file called event-popup.twig and this will stop the theme falling back to the default file in Vortex.

    Okay, to be clear, I put the child vortex theme where, in a folder called ‘vortex-child’ for example? (In the wp-content/plugins/all-in-one-event-calendar/public/themes-ai1ec/ directory?)

    Follow the documentation on creating a child calendar theme: http://time.ly/document/customize-calendar/create-new-calendar-theme/

    I’ll work on it, but this is just bad formatting by the plugin. I think the map used to be down below, which makes a lot more sense. That way, there’s two columns for the text and buttons, and the map can be larger, below. With the smaller screens being used on devices by so many people, this makes much better sense.

    I hope the plugin maker will fix this.

    I agree too, it should be:
    LOGO EVENT
    EVENT INFO
    MAP
    THEN BUY TICKETS OR SUBSCRIBE OPTIONS.

    Any reason why you guys did change the layout? Don’t you think it looks ugly the way is now? Thank you.

    *BUMP* STILL a problem! HELP! I’ve tried everything: CSS, manipulating the theme, just can’t get it to format the way I want. I tried creating a child calendar theme, still no luck.

    Please help, this default format is ugly, the skinny columns just don’t work. As I said at the beginning of this thread, the map should be down below.

    Hi,

    Please provide a link to your calendar page.

    It’s the single event pages, like this one: http://www.calstage.org/event/sacsoloseries-2/?instance_id=1092

    We’d like to have the calendar below the details and ticket button, etc, and the description below that.

    As it is, the details column is so skinny, it runs three inches below where the map is on the right, on a desktop view.

    Also, the single event pages are loading very slowly, not sure what is causing that.

    Did you get a chance to look at that, Benjamin? If that July 5 event expires before you get to it, you can also look at http://www.calstage.org/event/angel-in-the-night/?instance_id=932
