Hi,

1) That’s unusual. Can I ask what date and time formats you have set in the Settings > General page (WordPress options)?

2) You would need to copy the /templates/content-espresso_events.php to your theme folder and edit it.

For an example, after where it says

(line 39 approx), you can add in new template parts (copied from above) to show more information.

E.g. http://take.ms/B6Lnc

Hi,

1) I can see the issue on your site, but I cannot replicate it on my test sites. Can you try troubleshooting? disable all plugins except EE and see if the date issue works then. If not, try with a default theme such as Twentytwelve.

2) I looked but it doesn’t seem that you have copied the template file over.

hi as for no. 2

i’m confused i have in the EE 4 plugin folder a /templates/Espresso_Arabica_2014 and there i find the content-espresso_events.php file, is this corrrect?

— i’m using a child theme, should i copy files over to the parent theme or the child theme? right now these 3 files are in the
child theme root directory
content-espresso_events-venues.php
content-espresso_events-tickets.php
content-espresso_events.php

Hi Gabriel,

It turns out that PHP cannot parse d/m/y, but it can parse d-m-y. Can you try setting your WP Date settings to d-m-y instead?

When you use a child theme, you copy any templates that you want to modify from the Espresso_Arabica_2014 folder to your child theme. If you copy them to the parent theme you will lose the templates when you update the parent theme.

ok great

1. did the d-m-y in the custome setting but now i get the On Sale until End date going to 2024 or 2030?

2. my custom EventsList is looking better but still need help with php i think
how i’d like to have it:

Hi Gabriel,

Please make sure you have the very latest build of Event Espresso 4.2 (currently 4.2.3)

With the event list, there are some new settings in EE 4.2 that you can use to hide/show the ticket selector and venues in Event Espresso > General Settings > Template Settings.

The time display isn’t user configurable though, and I’m not sure what you’re looking to do from the screen shots you’ve posted. Are you looking to remove the end date display?

im looking to get a more minimal looking view for front page only like this screen shot

2nd part of my question:
can i use Views to modify the new CPT EE4 format to get what i want as per the above screenshot?

Hi Gabriel,

You can turn off the ticket selector via the General Settings > Templates tab. That will get you something similar to what you want, but obviously dependant on your theme. It may still require some CSS tweaks.

We have not tested Event Espresso with the Views plugin, so we cannot advise if it will work or not.
