Group Events Time

    One of my customers picked up the fact that on the Group page, the time is in 24hr format.

    In group-events.php on line 122 is:

    echo substr ( $EM_Event->start_time, 0, 5 ) . " - " . substr ( $EM_Event->end_time, 0, 5 );

    In the database it is stored as 24hr format.

    Is there any way to display it as:

    #_12HSTARTTIME – #_12HENDTIME

    I know it’s nit-picking, but I said I would ask.

    yes, you can try to format the time similar to line 58-59 but use dbem_time_format instead

    to use templates: https://wp-events-plugin.com/documentation/using-template-files/

    eg. wp-content/themes/Your Theme/plugins/events-manager/buddypress/group-events.php

    Hi Angelo,

    I am using a child file.

    My programming skills are pretty much level 101. I created:

    $localised_start_time = time_i18n(get_option('dbem_time_format'), $EM_Event->start);
$localised_end_time = time_i18n(get_option('dbem_time_format'), $EM_Event->end);

    But trying to use it in any way either made the whole table disappear or only the date to show.

    I would need more detailed instructions on what to put where in that file.

    Solved it by seeing how time is displayed on events page. Copied the following code to replace line 122:

    echo date_i18n(get_option('time_format'), $EM_Event->start) . " - " . date_i18n(get_option('time_format'), $EM_Event->end);
