Events page: show year and side tag

Recommended Posts

I'm working on an events page. Squarespace has 2 options to show display the date: show "side tag" and show "with text". I prefer the look of the side tag, but it doesn't include the year of the event, which I find quite frustrating and confusing as I have events that are more than a year in the future--and also confusing when it comes to the past events to not know what year they happened. Is there any way to show both the "side tag" and "with text" (using custom css maybe?). Or does anyone have any other suggestions for how to include the year while also including the side tag?

(Note: I don't want to include the year in the title because it looks awkward. I also don't want to include the year in the excerpt because then it will show up twice when you click on the individual event--unless there is a way to hide the date altogether when you click on the individual event so I can just display it in the excerpt? Is there a way to disable the option of clicking on the individual event?)

I'm also wondering if there's any way to add a heading that says "Past Events" after the dividing line. I find the dividing line isn't obvious enough on either "side tag" or "with text" setting.

Thanks!
