Creating a new event: How to preset start and time of event?

[Oliver]

Hi Casey,

when creating a new event for the start and end time the current hour is used:
http://www.treffpunkt-jazz.de/events/community/add/

How can I preset the start time to a specific time, e.g. start time = 20:00 and end time = 23:00?
(the website is an event calendar with mostly evening events)

Best regards,
Oliver

Hi Oliver,

I can help point you in the right direction on this.

There is no feature out of the box to change the time to a preset time. The function right now is designed to get the current time of the user rounded to the nearest hour.

There is filter you can try to use to modify the output here:

tribe_community_events_form_start_time_selector

That is found in this file:

\the-events-calendar-community-events\template-tags.php

Custom Datepicker
Or you could follow the themer’s guide to move this file:

\the-events-calendar-community-events\views\community\modules\datepickers.php

And replace this function:

tribe_community_events_form_start_time_selector();
