Currently the Events Calendar view/widget on the home page just shows a calendar icon and event title. Would be good to add the option for thumbnails (like categories) to display here.
Hi
To clarify, you would suggest keeping the calendar icon and add next to it a thumbnail of the event optionally, right? Ideally, the thumbnail you would like to see here is the cover of the event or a separately uploaded asset?
What would be the main difference between having this option vs adding events to a featured topic widget? Cover images would be displayed there as well.
In the meantime, we are going to open this idea for votes.
Hi
I actually had in mind that you might use the calendar image as a default for events if they don’t have a thumbnail uploaded as an asset, but showing both would be okay I think.
The main difference from a generic featured topic widget would be the auto-expiring from the home page of events that are in the past. Using the featured topic widget, this would be a manual process. That would be especially cumbersome for a community with a high volume of events.
I was about to add this idea and glad to see this one already existing. I agree with the comments about this helping to automate curation.
What we want is something like the featured topics widget for the next X event, showcasing the event images for a better visual feel. While it can be accomplished with the featured topics widget, adding the images to this widget would help automate curation.
