change colour; hide author; line break in latest events

Hi there!!

Version : 3.2.12 Stable
I am using the Flat calendar view.

Hello.

Three questions please:

1. If I want to change the colour of the calendar to match my site, can I do this through CSS or do I have to buy a subscription (which I might do as I gather this can apply to many domains)? If so which one to change the colour so I can put in the colour code in the back end? And what happens when the sub expires (does everything go red again <!-- s:? --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_confused.gif" alt=":?" title="Confused" /><!-- s:? --> )

You can do so using CSS. When getting any of our club templates you get the option of choosing color till some extend, but if you need deep customization of the color scheme, you probably end up using CSS. Anyway our FlatPlus theme (which is the Club version of Flat theme) has some nice features like nicer responsive and color chooser.

2. Can I hide the author of events, and if so how?

You have many ways, first of all you can go to configuration and instruct JEvents to not show author in the Event detail view.

Also you can hide it using CSS

And last and by far the most powerful and easy way, you can use the Custom Layouts editor and make the event detail view to look exactly as per your needs (all this comes for free).

3. How to I put a line break between each event in the Latest Events module please?

Thanks

Just put the line break on the Custom Format String area of your Latest Events Module, or if you prefer, you can also use CSS to customize it.

If using CSS inside JEvents, I do recommend that you add your changes to JEvents CSS area as it will be easier for you to add the code and track the changes.

Thanks. 2 & 3 all good.

What does happen when/if the sub expires? Surely calendars DON'T revert to the default colours!?

You can keep using what you downloaded as Club Member forever, but you will not be entitle to download further upgrades once your subscription expires
