Hi,
I saw a different thread about this same topic, but I actually need to have text after the start and end times, while supporting multiple start and end times. We run a bus company with different pickup/drop off locations/times that the person registering can use.
Basically, we want it to look something like this:
Start Time: 6:00am Mass Pickup
End Time: 10:00pm Mass Dropoff
Start Time: 6:30am CT Pickup
End Time: 10:30pm CT Dropoff
etc. . .
I am using WordPress version 4.0.1, with EE version 3.1.36.6.P

Hi Ryan,
When you setup multiple start/end times within an event, you’ll notice the registration page changes to use a dropdown of available times – http://take.ms/Z6Sy0
This is done using a core function which is pluggable and can overridden, however altering that function will modify all locations within EE that use that function.
Are you comfortable with PHP/HTML and FTP?

Tony,
Sorry that it took so long to reply, however this is something that I am still interested.
The times dropdown is exactly what I want, I just need extra text in those fields to use them for Times and Pickup locations for this current project – since they are tied together.
I am good with HTML and FTP. I know enough PhP to be dangerous 🙂
I haven’t done “pluggable” core function changes yet, do you think you can give me some guidance on what file I need and what I might need to do?
Thanks

Hi Ryan,
The file that has the function for the time selector is /event-espresso/includes/functions/time_date.php. The function is event_espresso_time_dropdown().
You can copy the entire function into /wp-content/uploads/espresso/custom_functions.php or into your own WordPress plugin (make sure the plugin loads before Event Espresso does though) and it will override the core function.
I can also recommend taking a look at Event Espresso 4 because it would allow for selecting different options like this one without modification and you’ll get the added benefit of being able to set a limit for each option.
