Custom Design

If you’d like to completely customize the output you can create a folder called tecshortcode in your theme directory, and in it create a file called custom.php

Then add your shortcode with “custom” as the design name (which matches custom.php):

[ecs-list-events design="custom"]

You can rename custom.php to another name and even create multiple design templates to use elsewhere on your site. Note that you should place this folder within a child theme so any updates to your main theme do not override your templates.
