# Different presentation depending on Theme

 * I use iCal Event List as a widget (list type 4) in the right sidebar of the theme
   Twenty Fourteen. I am fine with the presentation of the widget. The calendar 
   I use for our club has only a few events over the next few months.
 * I then changed the theme to “Twelve 14” or “Ridizain”. Adding the iCal Event 
   list to the right side bar with unchanged settings creates a different presentation:
   With these two themes, I suddenly get a drop-down menu showing the month. Below,
   the events are listed in the known style and I have additional links for the 
   previous and next month (by name). As I only have one event his month, the navigation
   takes up more space than the event information itself…
 * What is really sad is when I move to a month with no events, it looks like I 
   might have no additional events available.
 * Why is the representation changing based on a different theme?

 * Only reasons I can think of is that maybe
    1) there are 2 widgets – a calendar
   and a list. Did you perhaps use list for one and calendar for the other? The 
   list doesn’ have month dropdowns be default, but one can force a different list
   type.
 * 2) one themes css is hiding some fields – maybe the text is same colour as background?
   View source to see if the html is there. or “inspect element” using web debug
   tools.
 * 2) maybe something is interfering ?
 * The plugin itself doesn’t tailor itself to any themes.

 * The widget is the only one. This is the code that is generated:
 *     ```
       <div id="content-sidebar" class="content-sidebar widget-area" role="complementary">
   
           <aside id="amr_icalendar_widget-7" class="widget widget_calendar">
               <h1 class="widget-title"></h1>
               <div id="events_wrap">
                   <div class="calendar_navigation">
                       <form action="http://www.mydomain.com/2014/05/mypage/?listtype=4" method="POST">

                       <a class="nextmonth" title="Go to Juni 2014" href="/?start=20140601&months=1" rel="next"> … </a>

                               <span class="summary">

                   </section>
                   <!--

                   -->
               </div>
           </aside>
       ```
   
 * The widget is configured as
 * `http://test.icalevents.com/?cat=3&feed=ics listtype=4`
 * Somehow, the widget takes the decision for a grouping by month even as it is 
   not requested. Adding the option grouping=year does not have any influence.

 * Hi mailnov
    **There are 2 widgets** – the plugin provides for 2 – see widgets
   on left hand side of [http://test.icalevents.com/event-widgets/](http://test.icalevents.com/event-widgets/)
 * It appears what you have done is drag in the small calendar widget and then tried
   to force it to be the list widget by adding list type 4.
 * Go back to your widgets menu and drag in the “upcoming events list” not the “
   upcoming events calendar”. See this screenshot

 * You do not need to specify a list type unless you want to override the middle‘
   list’ part of the widget.
