Simpler looking calendar

Hello,

1. It should be, what JEvents Theme are you using?

2. Ok you can change this in the JEvents -> Custom Layouts -> Monthly Calendar Cell

Many thanks
Tony

Thanks Tony. Very helpful. Cell changes made. Using v 3.4.48 stable, theme:'alternative'. Now, how do I abbreviate the days of the week in the calendar?

Hello,

Ok so day names is a little more complicated.

Copy:

/components/com_jevents/views/alternative/month/tmpl/calendar_body.php

to

/templates/your_template/html/com_jevents/alternative/month/calendar_body.php

and change:

echo $dayname;

to

echo substr($dayname,0,3);

Many thanks
Tony

Hi Tony, I don't have a com_jevents subfolder below my site template/html, but went ahead and created it together with its subfolders as in your response, making the alteration in calendar_body.php. Has not altered the day name, though.... Any ideas??

Hello,

You need to create any missing folders.

This should have made the change? Although I found a problem you need:

		<div class="cal_div_daynames cal_div_daynames<?php echo $count; ?>" >

			<span class="<?php echo $dayname;?>">

				<?php echo substr(strip_tags($dayname), 0, 3); ?>

			</span>

		</div>

Many thanks
Tony

made the changes, but still no desired changes with the days of the week seen ....

I have made an observation, though. Irrespective whether I cange the theme calendar in the module or the config in the Jevents component, it does not change the calendar theme on hte webpage at all.

Therefore, because I do not know which theme is showing, I have created several subfolders under my template/html/com_jevents, as shown in the image . Each has the correctly (!) altered calendar_body.php file

This is the theme i have installed on the website, and which I cannot alter at all!
I am attaching my site details, since this is beyond my abilities...And thank you for your quick responses and patience.
