Clicking on the cluster icon will expand the events where the visitor can click on them to show their info popup.
There is a search area available which allows to search between dates and in content. Users are also able to search events in a certain radius for a specific location.
The basic options are empty by default, which means the global settings of component options will be used, but you can override this in the menu link configuration. The search criteria is saved in the session, which means, when the visitor comes back, then the settings are remembered.
