WebLink Event List: Show or hide date and time columns

Updated

The WebLink Event List widget allows you to control which date and time columns are displayed.

You can configure any combination of:

  • Start Date
  • End Date
  • Date and Time (start and end dates with times combined in one column)
  • Time (start and end times combined in one column)

Before making layout changes, review WebLink Widget Customization Best Practices.

Column visibility should be controlled using supported widget configuration options rather than custom CSS or layout overrides. This ensures compatibility with future updates and avoids unexpected rendering issues.

Update column settings using WebLink Builder

  1. Go to the WebLink Builder.
  2. Connect to your WebLink Portal.
  3. Select the appropriate timezone.
  4. Choose EventList in the Widget Picker.
  5. In the Event List Columns section:
    • Uncheck Show End Date Column.
    • Uncheck Show Date and Time Column.
    • Ensure Show Start Date Column is checked.
  6. Click Build.
  7. Copy the generated configuration.

Update an existing Event List widget

If you already have an Event List widget embedded, update its configuration object to include the supported column settings you want.

Example configuration

The following example hides the End Date column and the combined Date and Time column, while keeping the Start Date column visible:

{
  "showEndDateColumn": false,
  "showDateAndTimeColumn": false,
  "showStartDateColumn": true
}

Example implementation:

webLink.mount(
  document.getElementById('weblink-EventList'),
  'EventList',
  {
    "showEndDateColumn": false,
    "showDateAndTimeColumn": false,
    "showStartDateColumn": true,
    "showLocationFilter": false,
    "showPlacesRemainingColumn": true
  }
);

After updating the configuration, save and redeploy your page to confirm the column changes render as expected.
