Event Calendar Highlight - Display Options

Brian Bates 2

Is there a way for the Event Calendar Highlights to display events that are beyond 1 month out?


As I see it, the only options I have are show next:


5 days

1 week

2 weeks

3 weeks

1 month


If we don't have events that often, it will appear that we don't have any events, which isn't the case at all . . . but people won't click through the calendar to find them.  So I would like to be able to display;


* Next xxx (3, 5, 10) events  OR

* Next 3 months


Does anyone have a work-around or alternate suggestion to this?

Hi Brian,


One alternative might be to use the RSS feed functionality of the Event Calendar part. You can configure the RSS feed inside the Event Calendar part and then display the feed on a page. I would also suggest posting an idea in our Idea Bank. Our product management team regularly reviews the Ideas Bank for suggestions for upcoming releases:

Hi Tony,

I find that the RSS feed shows changes made to the events, not necessarily just a list of what's coming up. Before I seek out options for displaying a certain number of events (vs. a timeframe, like Brain mentions), I'd like to inquire further to see if you have samples of ways to display the RSS feed so it only shows event details, not an update of changes made to events.
