How to remove 12:00 am start time for all day event

[Marcy Lyons Gohen]

Is it possible to remove the start time (12:00 am) for an all day event?

Hey Marcy,

Thank you for reaching out to us!

Can you please send us further information about your request? By default, The Events Calendar automatically removes the start and end time for All Day Events (check out this example).

Let me know if you need anything else and I’ll be happy to assist!

Regards,

Patricia

I realize what the problem is – the default month view does not show the start time for any event. I modified single-event.php in our theme so that start times are displayed. Therefore all day events show 12:00 am. If I remove this code, other events will not show any time unless you put your mouse over them.

Is there a way to check for an all day event in single-event.php so I will not display the time for those events?

Hi Marcy,

Can you please share with us the code you did input in you single-event.php file so we can verify if it is possible to modify it to achieve what you want?

Thanks!

This is the code:

<div id="tribe-events-event-<?php echo esc_attr( $event_id ); ?>" class="<?php tribe_events_event_classes() ?>" data-tribejson='<?php echo esc_attr( tribe_events_template_data( $post ) ); ?>'>
	<h3 class="tribe-events-month-event-title"><a href="<?php echo esc_url( $link ) ?>" class="url"><?php echo $title ?></a></h3>
    <div class="event-time"><?php echo tribe_get_start_date($post->ID, false,'g:ia') ?></div>
</div>

Hi Marcy,

Thanks for sharing your code! You will achieve what you want by replacing this line:

<div class="event-time"><?php echo tribe_get_start_date($post->ID, false,'g:ia') ?></div>

with:

<div class="event-time"><?php if(!tribe_event_is_all_day()){ echo tribe_get_start_date($post->ID, false,'g:ia');} ?></div>

I hope this helps!

Let me know if you need anything else and I’ll be happy to assist!
