Event information with NSP 5 ?

Hello
I am trying to show event information useing NSP 5 . My plan is to create k2 category "Events" and use NPS 5 module to display latest events. Of course , i know that k2 is not for events, but it is enough for me , because i just need to provide basic event informations like image, name, date , time etc... without any features like "attending".
But problem is that i want to display it with some style like on this screenshot:


I dont need to show all these informations. I need just : image, name (heading) , and this date of event.
My problem is how to display this date of event in this format like on the picture. Is it possible to create information custom string for example
%EVENTDATE and display it like on the picture.

I really hope that you will understand me. Sorry for my bad english.
Best regards
Jasmin

Hello,

In my opinion you should use the JSON or XML files and then set your event date as a date of post in the json/xml file - then you will be able to display it in the info block as a normal post date.

Ahh, i am not that good with "programming" . May I ask if you could provide me an example of json or xml file , how can i use that, or some documentation that will help me achieve that with simple directions.

Thank you anyway.

You have to create JSON file like this: https://github.com/GavickPro/News-Show- ... ernal_data

and put it in the external_data directory - then you will be able to set data source as JSON file and set your filename as a source file.
