Events Made Easy › Forums › How do I … › Showing the correct dates in the events list
Tagged: Date, date range, format, single event
I have added an event which is a single event on just one day and another event which is over two days.
In the events list the single day event shows in the list as
7th Feb 2011 – 7th Feb 2011 and the event over two days
18th Apr 2011 – 19 Apr 2011
How can I remove the extra 7th Feb 2011 (the end date)
I have used the following placeholders in the default event list format settings page
#_{j M Y} #@_{- j M Y} [events_if tag=”#ESC_{j M Y}” value=”#ESC_@{j M Y}”] #{j M Y} [/events_if]
I have the latest version of eme and wordpress 3.04
Many thanks
Your conditional formatting is wrong: you’re printing start and end date, and then you compare them and if they are equal, you print the start date again.
Try this:
#_{j M Y} [events_if tag="#ESC_{j M Y}" notvalue="#ESC_@{j M Y}"] #@_{- j M Y} [/events_if]
Tried this but it didn’t make any difference.
I Still get a duplicate date for a single event, but works okay if the event is over two days.
7th Feb 2011 – 7th Feb 2011 (duplicate date)
18th Apr 2011 – 19th Apr 2011
Sorry.
Sorry, typo:
#_{j M Y} [events_if tag="#ESC_{j M Y}" notvalue="#ESC@_{j M Y}"] #@_{- j M Y} [/events_if]
Brilliant. Thank you very much for an excellent plugin.
Very helpful! Thank you for posting. I want to change the formatting of the dates so that they will look like “Jan 1, 2011”. I’ve tried modifying the code to this:
#_{M j Y} [events_if tag=”#ESC_{M j Y}” notvalue=”#ESC@_{M j Y}”] #@_{- M j Y} [/events_if]
but it will no longer return a date range if the event covers more than one day. Is there a solution that will give me this output:
Event 1
Jan 1, 2011
Event 2
Jan 4, 2011 – Jan 6, 2011
Make sure you don’t copy over the slanted quotes from me, but use standard double quotes. For the rest, it should work just fine.
Edit: I removed the slanted quotes from my examples, and just regular quotes now 🙂
Wonderful! That did the trick. Thanks so much!
