Is it possible to have the day of the week appear from the date selected for the event? e.g. Thursday, March 7, 2013 |
Hi there, In most cases, Event Espresso will display dates as they are set in the WordPress > Settings > General Date settings. |
|
|
Use the custom date setting l F j, Y |
|
The custom date setting of l F j, Y gives me this result. |
|
I added this to event list display.php for the day of week: (wrap in php tags)
|
|
Thanks, where will I find the file event list display.php? |
|
Worked fine, here http://d.pr/i/UfqM – the date just needs to be changed in the WordPress General settings |
|
I’ve done it in the general settings, going straight to it, and via the link in espresso. See here for the date that is showing – http://www.societyofanaesthetistsinradiology.org/events/ Date: 2013-03-07T00:00:00+00:000000000031201303 |
|
Is it possible to get your login details in order to look into this? If so, please send them via https://eventespresso.com/contact/ Choose the “I am sending login info as requested” option and fill out the form NOTE: login details need to be Admin level. |
|
Any update please? I have submitted my login details. Thanks Dean. |
|
Hi, Sorry for the delay in responding. I have received the login details however they do not work. Could you please resubmit valid login credentials? Thanks |
|
Thanks Dean. Resubmitted, as requested. |

Hi, OK I see the issue, when entering the custom date codes and saving, instead of it saving correctly, it inputs the word “custom”. I have set your date to the default, however you need to speak to the design of your custom admin panel as that is causing the issue by not allowing the setting to save correctly. |
|
Thanks Dean, custom admin panel, you mean the designer of the ‘THEME’ i’m using? |
|
YEs indeed, though the theme has customised the full Admin Panel at the back, in my mind without need except for a looks thing. However I am certain this is causing the issue. On a basic install where the dashboard is not changed, changing the date is not an issue. |
|
Hi Dean, i’ve updated my theme to display (l, F j, Y) date style. However, the date at the bottom of my event – http://www.societyofanaesthetistsinradiology.org/events/ is only (F j, Y). Where can this be changed please? |
|
Hi It’s in your WordPress settings. Go to Settings > General and its in the date section there. |
|
Yes, I’ve tried that, and it shows up an error with a long date every time. I’ll update to the new version, but I can’t see it changing. |
|
Hardcoding it will work of course, have you tested it with the twentyeleven theme? If it works fine with that then your theme is to blame for it. |
