WordPress Plugin v0.5.3 - Crushing the Calendar

Introducing the hotly anticipated new Calendar views into the plugin.

These are slick new options to display your calendar of events in monthly, weekly, and day schedule densities to complement your other views. It's great for runs of shows, off-season light programming, regular weekly programming, festivals--it's hard to come up with a scenario where you won't want them available.

Events are color-coded and filterable in-calendar by a category you choose. The background color will communicate ticket availability according to the legend underneath. And it's super fast.

Users can flip between a whole month of events…

…one week at a time…

…or one day at a time, seeing in time what's playing at each venue--that's the first image there at the top.

It's also, if I do say so myself, the best darn designed calendar you're gonna find out there, on full-sized screens or on mobile.

Also in this release:

  • Added icons and mobile responsiveness to the new event view navigation shortcode (e.g., the "pill")
  • Fixed a bug that could result in the current day disappearing from the [elevent_dates] shortcode before midnight local time
  • Cleaned up some styles, freeing up the ability to customize the look & feel more without running into !important CSS overrides.
  • Fixed a bug that allowed the datepicker to bust out of its container when there were a lot of dates
