Hi guys,

the default layout for the geraint layout of cat.listevents is three columns.
In my situation it´s
|eventDate|eventName and Location|eventAdditionalInformation|

While it seems i can not edit content of the first column "eventDate" the contents of the columns "eventName and Location" and "eventAdditionalInformation" could be customized by myself.

Now i would like to know the easiest and less invasive way to change the order of the columns for example to:
|eventName and Location|eventAdditionalInformation|eventDate|

Is it about to edit the template file itself, or do an overwrite and may you have an example of how the code looks like? And is it also possible to customize the first columns contents (from date to whatever)?

Best Regards
Chris
See https://www.jevents.net/frequently-aske ... ut-editing and then take a look at template overrides if you want further customisation of the output

Hi,

okay template override is my friend.
Btw. can you tell me how to do css override for
/components/com_jevents/assets/css/eventsadmin.css

I have tried different ways none of them worked out:

in templates html folder
- /templates/my_template/html/com_jevents/geraint/assets/css/eventsadmin.css
- /templates/my_template/html/com_jevents/assets/css/eventsadmin.css

in templates css folder
- /templates/my_template/css/com_jevents/assets/css/eventsadmin.css
- /templates/my_template/css/components/com_jevents/assets/css/eventsadmin.css

Of course i read:
jevents.net/frequently-asked-questions/customising-layouts
but somehow it didn´t help me out.

Is it necessary to explicitly include the override css in my index.php?

Best Regards and many Thanks!
Chris

Hello Chris,

I'm afraid that is a core CSS file which can't be changed. You should just override it with new CSS.

Many thanks
Tony
