Handle Multi-Event Days
Events Template groups its results by the site’s local calendar day. This keeps a busy schedule from repeating the same date heading for every event.
Choose a display pattern
Section titled “Choose a display pattern”One primary event per day
Section titled “One primary event per day”Use Event Title and Event Time when each day usually has one event or when a simple preview is sufficient. Other child blocks, including Event Image and Registration URL, use the primary event for that day.
Every event on the day
Section titled “Every event on the day”Use Kleis Event Day Schedule when several events may share a date. It renders each event title and display time in chronological order within the repeated day layout.
A useful structure is:
- Date heading with Event Weekday, Event Day, and Event Month Year
- Event Day Schedule beneath the heading
- Separator after the day’s group
Multi-day events
Section titled “Multi-day events”Kleis expands a multi-day event across each day it occupies so it can appear in the correct date group. The displayed time text reflects the relevant portion of the event for that day.
When Featured events only is enabled, Kleis instead combines occurrences from the same Planning Center event when they fall on the same or consecutive dates. The featured card displays one image, title, registration link, date range, and compact schedule for the complete run. Nonconsecutive occurrences, such as weekly services, remain separate cards.
Matching daily schedules are summarized as a daily time range. If times differ, Kleis groups adjacent weekdays that share the same schedule. A single event that continuously spans several dates is shown with its starting and ending weekday and time.
All-day events
Section titled “All-day events”All-day events do not require an artificial clock time. Preview the page to make sure your surrounding labels still read naturally when the Event Time block has all-day output.
Repeated instances
Section titled “Repeated instances”Planning Center may provide separate instances for recurring events. Kleis sorts instances by their start time and groups only those that fall on the same local date.
