Hi, before
commiting for the Pro version, I have 1 project in mind and I would like to
know if it is possible with Formidable Pro
1)Can we
display entries in a calendar and depending on a check in
the form field, change the colour of the entry in the calendar accordingly, so that in a quick
glance we can see all the posts of the same kind.
2) Can we
have fields in the post that we enter, they feed the database, but we choose not
to post these fields for the average subscriber, but possible to view for a
member. Or to make it differently have a part of the site that is free where
the post is shown with only some fields and show again the same post with all
the details in the premium subscribers section?
I thank you
in advance for your consideration

1. You can do this by setting an html class using the checkbox value and add your css to change colors based on that class. This would only change the content inside the calendar box. It would require some added javascript to add a class to the box the entry is in. So, your custom display would look something like this:
<div class="[26 sanitize=1]">content here</div> (26 is a sample field ID)
Are you familiar with HTML and CSS?
2. Are you using a membership plugin? If so, you can use the shortcodes from that plugin in the same way inside the custom display settings. How are you doing this on regular posts and pages?

Thank you for the reply.
I see that more or less what I need is possible. I have only basic experience of html and css, I have done a site in the past on Dreamweaver and now I am learning Wordpress for some more advanced features.
I will experiment and will get back to you when everything will be in place.
