I added a tip for adding a widget to your site which checks against your events and will show events that are upcoming for the current month and if none will let your members know, you can find that tip here and what it looks like with also the code for it :Add Events Widget
This tip here is now how to seperate each month and by doing so we can style them to make it easier to view events by the month while also tidying up the display of them a little better. We need to add two lots of code for this, the first is some custom code to wrap out events and the second is some css to style them.
Here is alink to my events page; https://gromsquad.ning.com/events
First we need to add some custom code so we can wrap the event months ready for styling. This code goes in your social site manager > custom code > end of page section
<script>
x$(document).ready(function(){
//Add the classes to the months
//13-04-19 John Bizley
//Add A Class To The Start Month In eventPage-detail in eventlistpage
var StartMonth = x$('.eventPage-details .span10 ul:nth-child(1) > li:nth-child(2) > a:nth-child(1)').addClass('startMonth');
var $January = x$('.eventListPage .startMonth:contains(Jan)').closest('article.entry').addClass('january').wrapAll('<div id="JanWrap" class="calendarGrid"></div>');
var $February = x$('.eventListPage .startMonth:contains(Feb)').closest('article.entry').addClass('february').wrapAll('<div id="FebWrap" class="calendarGrid"></div>');
var $March = x$('.eventListPage .startMonth:contains(Mar)').closest('article.entry').addClass('march').wrapAll('<div id="MarWrap" class="calendarGrid"></div>');
var $April = x$('.eventListPage .startMonth:contains(Apr)').closest('article.entry').addClass('april').wrapAll('<div id="AprWrap" class="calendarGrid"></div>');
var $May = x$('.eventListPage .startMonth:contains(May)').closest('article.entry').addClass('may').wrapAll('<div id="MayWrap" class="calendarGrid"></div>');
var $June = x$('.eventListPage .startMonth:contains(Jun)').closest('article.entry').addClass('june').wrapAll('<div id="JunWrap" class="calendarGrid"></div>');
var $July = x$('.eventListPage .startMonth:contains(Jul)').closest('article.entry').addClass('july').wrapAll('<div id="JulWrap" class="calendarGrid"></div>');
var $August = x$('.eventListPage .startMonth:contains(Aug)').closest('article.entry').addClass('august').wrapAll('<div id="AugWrap" class="calendarGrid"></div>');
var $September = x$('.eventListPage .startMonth:contains(Sep)').closest('article.entry').addClass('september').wrapAll('<div id="SeptWrap" class="calendarGrid"></div>');
var $October = x$('.eventListPage .startMonth:contains(Oct)').closest('article.entry').addClass('october').wrapAll('<div id="OctWrap" class="calendarGrid"></div>');
var $November = x$('.eventListPage .startMonth:contains(Nov)').closest('article.entry').addClass('november').wrapAll('<div id="NovWrap" class="calendarGrid"></div>');
var $December = x$('.eventListPage .startMonth:contains(Dec)').closest('article.entry').addClass('december').wrapAll('<div id="DecWrap" class="calendarGrid"></div>');
var cgTitle = x$('.calendarGrid').prepend('<div class="calendarGrid-Title"></div>');
var cgTitleName = x$('.calendarGrid-Title').append('<h3 class="monthHeader-name">Month</h3>');
x$('#JanWrap h3.monthHeader-name').html("January");
x$('#FebWrap h3.monthHeader-name').html("February");
x$('#MarWrap h3.monthHeader-name').html("March");
x$('#AprWrap h3.monthHeader-name').html("April");
x$('#MayWrap h3.monthHeader-name').html("May");
x$('#JunWrap h3.monthHeader-name').html("June");
x$('#JulWrap h3.monthHeader-name').html("July");
x$('#AugWrap h3.monthHeader-name').html("August");
x$('#SepWrap h3.monthHeader-name').html("September");
x$('#OctWrap h3.monthHeader-name').html("October");
x$('#Noverap h3.monthHeader-name').html("November");
x$('#DecWrap h3.monthHeader-name').html("December");
});
</script>
NEXT we can add our css which will style the events list page and detail page. This code goes in your design studio custom css

EXTRA TIP
Now we have them all wrapped and styled we can also style just a particular month, if you go to my events page you will see two events, one for the month of may and the other for December. As you will see the December one looks totaly different. below is the css I used just for the Month of December, the code is an example of how you would style a particular month. Each month has a wrap id so in the code below you will notice it starts with #DecWrap, if you look at the top of this post you can see all the id's for each month for you to use.
/*Adding a background to a wrap*/
#DecWrap{background-image: url("https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/1952482221?profile=original");}
#DecWrap .monthHeader-name{ color:white }
#DecWrap .entry.december{background-image: url("https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/1952482226?profile=original");}
#DecWrap .entry.december .media-body, #DecWrap .entry.december .media-body a{ color:white }
#DecWrap .entry.december .media-body a:hover{ color:#7df07e }
#DecWrap .entry.december .media-body{ background-color: rgba(129, 35, 35, 0.79);}
#DecWrap .entry.december .span3 {color: white; background-color: rgba(129, 35, 35, 0.49);text-align:center}
That's it, enjoy
Bizz :-)
