Vertical timeline content for Aesop Story Engine.

A single timeline component is one event: designated by a date or time, usually. Using multiple components, create a timeline on any post or page.

Please note that this plugin builds upon existing functionality provided by Aesop Story Engine, and will not function without it.

Options

Using the component's built-in options, timeline events can be customized with custom icons, colors, and images.

Icon font class defines the icon font and specific icon to use. WordPress comes bundled with Dashicons; the default icon is a pencil, defined by dashicons dashicons-edit. If you are loading in another icon font, such as Font Awesome, you can specify its classes here instead.

Color defines the color behind the icon. The default is a neutral light gray. The icon's color will change depending on the color you choose here, to maintain readability.

Icon color overrides the default color of the icon. This is optional.

Event title is, of course, the title of this event in the timeline.

Event description can be as long or short as you like.

Background image is optional. Including it will slightly darken the entire event, and change the event text color from dark to light, to maintain readability.

Event link is optional.

Link text is optional. If you define an event link but no text, the entire event becomes clickable.

Event time or date should be pretty self-explanatory. It's a text field, not a datepicker, so you can define the specificity. Whether it's a time, a date, or a combination, it's completely up to you.
