How it behaves
It still works when things are switched off
Search by keyword, pick a month and choose an activity to filter the events; a line reports how many are shown, and Clear filters brings them all back.
- Motion off or reduced motion
- Nothing here animates, so nothing changes.
- JavaScript off
- All content stays visible and readable; controls the script adds are hidden.
- Plugin missing or older
- It pastes as plain WordPress blocks, in reading order, without the designed layout.
Questions
What’s On: common questions
What is What’s On for?
Suits a venue or events page with a season of listings, where visitors narrow the programme by date, type or keyword to find a night. Typical uses: arts venue season listings, festival events programme, community centre timetable and bookshop events calendar.
Does What’s On need a plugin?
Yes. Designed Patterns come with a subscription, which includes the Pattern Paste plugin that runs them; What’s On arrived in plugin 0.37.2. Without the plugin, or on an older version, it pastes as plain WordPress blocks: the content reads in order, without the designed layout.
What can I edit in What’s On?
As pasted it has 7 headings, 33 text lines and 6 buttons, 27 of them optional and removable. The items are a repeatable set: the item controls add one or remove the last. The layout stays protected while you edit. Unlock layout, in the section’s settings, lets you insert, move and remove any block.
Will What’s On match my theme?
Choose Designed to keep its own palette and type, or Use my theme to let it follow your theme’s colours and fonts. Either works in any block theme on WordPress 7.0 or later. Choose Use my theme in the preview above to see it follow a theme before you copy.
Does What’s On animate?
No. Its script only adds the controls, and with JavaScript off all content stays visible.
