Problem with the event hour (EE4)

My event time is correctly specified in admin panel, but appears to be false on my website. In fact, my website shows current time in place of event time:
http://www.alliageartproject.com/?espresso_events=prochain-spectacle

Do you understand how it is possible, and what I could do to fix this?

Thanks a lot in advance!

Hi Jean-Baptiste,

Are you running the latest version of Event Espresso at 4.2.3?

Timezone: GMT+1
Date format: 9 mai 2014 (j F Y)
Time format: 10 h 13 min (G \h i \m\i\n)

Thanks for your help!

The issue is with the j F Y format as it can not be properly parsed by PHP due to its format and causes incompatibility issues with Event Espresso.

This results in the current time being displayed within the Events.

You will need to use another date format in order to use Event Espresso correctly.

For example ‘F j, Y’ will works fine.

Once you have changed your date format you may need to update your events in order for the dates to be updated correctly.

The problem seems to be partially solved.
The time is now correct, but I would like to show it in the 24 hours/day format (no AM and PM ; am and pm are not showed, BTW). Is it possible?

Hello,

You can set that up. Please see this guide here:
