Listing event start and end time without date

[electricinteractive]

Hi,

We’re running single-day events, so I’m looking for a method of displaying the event start and finish time, but without the date attached. Currently I’m using:

echo tribe_get_start_date($post->ID, true, ‘j M’);

Which outputs something like: “5 DEC 6:30 PM”, but adding tribe_get_end_date adds the date again, when I just want it to show “5 DEC 6:30 PM – 8:30 PM”.

Hope this makes sense. Thanks in advance for your help.

change the boolean to false (which will display just the date without not the time) and just echo the time format (http://php.net/manual/en/function.date.php) you’d prefer. If you just want the start time/finish time for an event in the 6:30 PM – 8:30 PM format, use:

echo tribe_get_start_date($post, false, $format = ‘g:i A’ ) . ‘—’ . tribe_get_end_date($post, false, $format = ‘g:i A’);

or if you want the Event Date with start and end time (5 DEC 6:30 PM – 8:30 PM) then:
echo tribe_get_start_date($post, false, $format = ‘d M g:i A’) . ‘—’ . tribe_get_end_date($post, false, $format = ‘g:i A’);

Just the answer I was looking for. Thanks so much, snorton – please mark this as resolved.
