Display Date Only

Thanks so much for posting. It’s still not working for me unfortunately. I copied across your code and got it showing the date and end time which I have now changed to show the start time on the index.php page but it is ignoring it on the single.php page. Don’t seem to be able to get it to show on both.

Here is my code:

if ( ! function_exists( 'eventbrite_event_date' ) ) :
/**
 * Output event information such as date, time, venue, and organizer
 */
function eventbrite_event_date() {
	// Determine our separator.
	$separator = apply_filters( 'eventbrite_meta_separator', '<span class="sep"> &middot; </span>' );

	// Start our HTML output with the event time.
	$time = '<span class="event-time">' . eventbrite_event_day() . '</span>';

	// Assemble our HTML. Yugly.
	$html = sprintf( _x( '%1$s%2$s%3$s%4$s', '%1$s: time, %2$s: venue, %3$s: organizer, %4$s: event details (only on index views)', 'eventbrite-api' ),
		$time,
		$venue,
		$organizer,
		$details
	);

	echo apply_filters( 'eventbrite_event_date', $html, $time, $venue, $organizer, $details );
}
endif;

if ( ! function_exists( 'eventbrite_event_day' ) ) :
/**
 * Return an event's time.
 *
 * @return string Event time.
 */

function eventbrite_event_day() {
	// Determine if the end time needs the date included (in the case of multi-day events).
	$start_time = ( eventbrite_is_multiday_event() )
		? mysql2date( 'j F Y, g:i A', eventbrite_event_start()->local )
		: mysql2date( 'g:i A', eventbrite_event_start()->local );
	// Assemble the full event time string.
	$event_time = sprintf(
		_x( '%1$s  %2$s', 'Event date and time. %1$s = start time, %2$s = end time', 'eventbrite_api' ),
		esc_html( mysql2date( 'j M Y ', eventbrite_event_start()->local ) ),
		esc_html( $start_time )
	);

	return $event_time;
}
endif;

I added the following to both my custom template files – index.php and single.php

<div class="entry-meta">
	<?php eventbrite_event_day(); ?>
        </div><!-- .entry-meta -->

Any ideas what I could be doing wrong? Failing completely after hours and hours of trying. I think I just don’t understand php functions well enough. hrrrm

Hi @fireflip

I didn’t do that – just copied across the template that comes with the plugin and altered the header info. Adding this hasn’t helped tho.

Any ideas why I just get the start date and not the end date as well on the index page?

Here is my single page template file as it is now

<?php
/**
 * The Template for displaying all single Eventbrite events.
 */

get_header(); ?>

	<div id="primary" class="content-area">
		<main id="main" class="site-main" role="main">
			<?php

			// Set up and call our Eventbrite query.
				$events = new Eventbrite_Query( apply_filters( 'eventbrite_query_args', array(
					// 'display_private' => false, // boolean
					// 'nopaging' => false,        // boolean
					// 'limit' => null,            // integer
					// 'organizer_id' => null,     // integer
					// 'p' => null,                // integer
					// 'post__not_in' => null,     // array of integers
					// 'venue_id' => null,         // integer
					// 'category_id' => null,      // integer
					// 'subcategory_id' => null,   // integer
					// 'format_id' => null,        // integer
				) ) );

				// Get our event based on the ID passed by query variable.
				$event = new Eventbrite_Query( array( 'p' => get_query_var( 'eventbrite_id' ) ) );

				if ( $event->have_posts() ) :
					while ( $event->have_posts() ) : $event->the_post(); ?>

						<article id="event-<?php the_ID(); ?>" <?php post_class(); ?>>
							<header class="entry-header">
								<h1 class="entry-title"><?php the_title(); ?></h1>

								<?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?>
								<div class="entry-meta">
								<?php eventbrite_event_day(); ?>

								</div><!-- .entry-meta -->
							</header><!-- .entry-header -->

							<div class="entry-content">
								<p><?php the_content(); ?></p>

								<?php eventbrite_ticket_form_widget(); ?>
							</div><!-- .entry-content -->

							<footer class="entry-footer">
								<?php eventbrite_edit_post_link( __( 'Edit', 'eventbrite_api' ), '<span class="edit-link">', '</span>' ); ?>
							</footer><!-- .entry-footer -->
						</article><!-- #post-## -->

					<?php endwhile;

				else :
					// If no content, include the "No posts found" template.
					get_template_part( 'content', 'none' );

				endif;

				// Return $post to its rightful owner.
				wp_reset_postdata();
			?>
		</main><!-- #main -->
	</div><!-- #primary -->

<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>
