Release Notes (Website: Event listings) - March 13, 2025

[AngryBeesy]

With today’s release, we have made it easier for a player to plan their event calendar by displaying the date, time, and location prominently on each Event Cache listing. This feature is consistently applied across these pages:

• Search results
• Search map - cache listing, preview pane and my lists
• Lists

This applies only to current and future events. Past events are noted with the date.
The date format follows the player’s date preference. The time format follows a 12-hour clock.
Non-Event Caches are not affected by this change.

Please add a day (Sun, Mon, Tue, and so forth) as well.

Rationale: When previewing an event in that list, I definitely want to know which weekday the event will happen, as I can't visit an event due to working issues from Mon-Fri.

Seeing the date in the preview list would avoid leaving the webpage and calling the calendar, then scrolling to the month the event will happen and then going back to the event preview list. Seems to be a lot of unnecessarily clicks.

Having the day before the date would be the ice on the cake.

 

Thanks in advance for considering

I definitely noticed the update and now can skip clicking on the event from the calendar if it doesn't suit my schedule.  This is really helpful when multiple events are on the same day.

 

Thanks for doing this and making life a little bit easier!

It would look better if you remove "None" for the countries that don't have states/provinces/regions.

Noted. We'll see what we can do within the limited space available for date/time/location.

An abbreviated day plus comma between the calendar icon and the number of the day seems to be doable.

The Countries (US States) could also be abbreviated with their two char ISO code (WA, OR, CA, UK, DE, SE, ...)
