Hi Paul,

What you have added is the Description column to the list view. If you go to the bottom of the module settings, and open up Templat Settings you will find a template called 'List View Description' which has the token [event:description], which simply tells the module to display the event description in the Description column of the list view. In the same location, you will see a link to some template help, which shows all the tokens available. You can use other token in the template to add extra information, e.g date/location/etc.

For your event name column, you may wish to either hide this using CSS as I suggested, or reduce the font size by editing your css for the theme you are using, it seems a bit big to me.

I am mentioning 5.0.4, because we have been doing some work to improve the flexibility of the list view. It isn't released as yet, but you can expect it to be available in the next 2-3 months, with a beta much sooner than that. Have a look at the issue tracker on http://dnnevents.codeplex.com for an idea of what we have been working on for 5.0.4.

Cheers
Roger

Hi Roger,

Well, I've got it working thanks to your tips in 5.0.3 version.

1. Modify Events.css for the Theme being used

.ThemeEvents .ListTitle
{
    font-size: 14pt; /* pchu 7 to 14 */
    font-family: verdana,helvetica,arial;
    text-align: left;
    vertical-align: top;
    display:none; /* pchu - hide the Title Column in list view */
}
 

2. Module Settings:

Change the default "List View Description" Template  ( basically copied the Event Details Template )

<div align="left" style="width:750px;">
<div align="left" >
<span class="Head">Topic:&nbsp;[event:title]</span> [event:eventimage]<br /><br />
<span class="Head">Meeting Date: [event:startdate] til 9pm.</span>
</div>
<div class="Normal" align="left" >[event:description]</div>
</div>

So, i set the List View to show the next 2 Upcoming events and here it is:
