Thanks Tony,

The author name would be different to the post meta, think author e.g. Stephen King. We can relabel the ACF meta box to ‘play_author’ to avoid confusion.

What would the hook be for the event list page?
Would it be before the header </div> here?

<?php do_action( 'AHEE_play_author_after_espresso_events-header'); ?>

Also, how can we show the date range of multiple dates for each event please?

Thanks.

Thanks Tony,

I’ve managed to solve it, with your direction to focus on the theme.

To appear in the event list –
Added this

<div class="play_author"><h4><?php the_field('play_author'); ?></h4></div>
in the ‘content-espresso_events_header.php’

and the same again in the theme single.php to show in the event details.

How can we show the date range of multiple dates for each event please on the event list?
Example – June 18th, 2016 – June 20th, 2016

Is it here?

//d( $datetimes );
if ( is_array( $datetimes ) && ! empty( $datetimes )) {
global $post;
$html = $format ? '<ul id="ee-event-datetimes-ul-' . $post->ID . '" class="ee-event-datetimes-ul">' : '';
foreach ( $datetimes as $datetime ) {
if ( $datetime instanceof EE_Datetime ) {
$html .= '<li id="ee-event-datetimes-li-' . $datetime->ID() . '" class="ee-event-datetimes-li">';
$datetime_name = $datetime->name();
$html .= ! empty( $datetime_name ) ? '' . $datetime_name . '' : '';
$html .= ! empty( $datetime_name ) && $add_breaks ? '<br />' : '';
$html .= '<span class="dashicons dashicons-calendar"></span>' . $datetime->date_range( $date_format ) . '<br/>';
$html .= '<span class="dashicons dashicons-clock"></span>' . $datetime->time_range( $time_format );
$datetime_description = $datetime->description();
$html .= ! empty( $datetime_description ) && $add_breaks ? '<br />' : '';
$html .= ! empty( $datetime_description ) ? ' - ' . $datetime_description : '';
$html = apply_filters( 'FHEE__espresso_list_of_event_dates__datetime_html', $html, $datetime );
$html .= '';

Thanks Lorenzo,

This simple function has now worked –

function espresso_list_of_event_dates() {
return espresso_event_date_range();
}


However, the end time is appearing on events that have a range of dates. I already have this function in place to remove the end times, what needs to be changed so the events with a range of end dates are also removed please?

// Remove End Time
if ( ! function_exists( 'espresso_list_of_event_dates' )) {
/**
* espresso_list_of_event_dates
* returns a unordered list of dates for an event
*
* @param int $EVT_ID
* @param string $date_format
* @param string $time_format
* @param bool $echo
* @param null $show_expired
* @param bool $format
* @param bool $add_breaks
* @param null $limit
* @return string
*/
function espresso_list_of_event_dates( $EVT_ID = 0, $date_format = '', $time_format = '', $echo = TRUE, $show_expired = NULL, $format = TRUE, $add_breaks = TRUE, $limit = NULL ) {
$date_format = ! empty( $date_format ) ? $date_format : get_option( 'date_format' );
$time_format = ! empty( $time_format ) ? $time_format : get_option( 'time_format' );
$date_format = apply_filters( 'FHEE__espresso_list_of_event_dates__date_format', $date_format );
$time_format = apply_filters( 'FHEE__espresso_list_of_event_dates__time_format', $time_format );
EE_Registry::instance()->load_helper( 'Event_View' );
$datetimes = EEH_Event_View::get_all_date_obj( $EVT_ID, $show_expired, FALSE, $limit );
if ( ! $format ) {
return apply_filters( 'FHEE__espresso_list_of_event_dates__datetimes', $datetimes );
}
//d( $datetimes );
if ( is_array( $datetimes ) && ! empty( $datetimes )) {
global $post;
$html = $format ? '<ul id="ee-event-datetimes-ul-' . $post->ID . '" class="ee-event-datetimes-ul">' : '';

$html .= '';
}
}
$html .= $format ? '' : '';
} else {
$html = $format ? '<p><span class="dashicons dashicons-marker pink-text"></span>' . __( 'There are no upcoming dates for this event.', 'event_espresso' ) . '</p><br/>' : '';
}
if ( $echo ) {
echo $html;
return '';
}
return $html;
}
}

Thanks Lorenzo,

Any idea why just on non EE pages where we have the upcoming widget, there are now no event dates or times, but just the title of the event and image? – http://prntscr.com/a2c2wb

Here’s on an events details page – http://prnt.sc/a2dl8p

No, just a bit of .css with font-colour, no php modifications specifically for the widget.

Thanks Tony,

What are the correct functions to show a) no end time for any events, b) also a date range for any multiple day events, c) without affecting the upcoming widget?

Thanks Josh, I found this post which also solved my display – https://eventespresso.com/topic/displaying-multiple-dates-as-a-range/

Thanks,
