Day Start time – week view

[Philip Macaulay]

I have an event that runs from 5pm 17 June 2014 to 12:30am (30 mins past midnight (18 June) – I have set the day cut off at 12:30am so that works – thing is this is one event that runs through to the next day but starts again at 9:30 and ends at 1pm, problem is because the calendar day starts at 12am – which is crazy, by the way, the event shows next day running from 12am though to 1pm. How can I get the following day to start at 9:30 and end at 1pm in the week calendar view??

Is it not possible to change the week view day start time (I saw this post https://theeventscalendar.com/support/forums/topic/how-to-change-the-beginning-time-in-the-weekly-view/#post-73620 but that change to the code seems to break the calendar.

What are my options? do I have to create a Event Day 1 and Event Day 2?? It kind of defeats the object of creating a two day event??

Thanks

Howdy philmacaulay!

There is not really an option to select different EOD times for different views. It looks to me like zengirl was likely on the right track, and evidently got that code to work. Clearly the snippet she posted here is not complete, it is missing things like a closing parentheses and such. Assuming you corrected those bits, did you paste that code in the right place? You would want to create a theme override for your week view and modify her idea to fit your needs.

Unfortunately theme overrides do require a bit of knowhow, they are not really a copy/paste scenario. You need to have a pretty solid understanding of PHP and WP, plus the theme API to successfully create an override. If you do not have the requisite knowledge, you might need to hire someone to make the customization. You can email [email protected] if you are interested in obtaining a list of developers who know all of the necessary APIs.

Does that make sense? Does it answer your question? Please let me know. Thank you!
