Event Links View

The cut off is caused by your theme. It’s using overflow: hidden to prevent content from exceeding the bounds of the container; and that includes cutting off the content of the event pop-ups.

If you override the styles on lines 652 and 763 of style.css, you should be OK.

#container { overflow: hidden; }
#main { overflow: hidden; }

You could add custom CSS to your site’s additional CSS at Appearance > Customize > Additional CSS:

#container { overflow: visible; }
#main { overflow: visible; }

You can adjust the position of the popup in CSS; but that won’t help with event information that’s longer than the post body, anyway.

My Calendar doesn’t have an option for external links to open in a new tab; it’s focused on creating an accessible user experience, and links that open in new tabs are generally disruptive to that experience.

Everything about what the popup looks like is customizable using CSS; so you can make that work however you wish.

There should be a return to calendar link; and looking at your site, it’s present, but doesn’t have any text. Check the settings at My Calendar > Settings > Text for “View full calendar”; the text of that link should be manageable there.

Regarding external links: what you describe is a disruption to how you imagine the flow of your website, but what I’m concerned about is disruption to how a user expects a link to work. A normal link gives choice: move to a new tab or not, as you choose. A link that opens in a new tab takes away that choice.

Everything is filterable; which links, in particular, are you looking to filter?

That is odd. I know the bug that’s causing ‘View full calendar’ to be empty by default, and that will be fixed in the next release, I can’t see why it would be a problem if the field *is* filled in. It wouldn’t be a translation issue, for a couple reasons: first, because if a translatable field is empty, then the original text will be returned, and second, because if there’s a value saved in your settings, then the text returned is your saved setting, and *not* the translatable version of it.

For filters, I will note that all external links already get an ‘external’ class, so technically the easiest thing would be to add some basic JS to find those links and change them. E.g.

$('a[class*="external"]').attr( 'target', '_blank' );
