Events with no date? was created by jabbawocky30
Hello

I have bought your product a week ago and set up the following problems:

If leave blank the field "Start Date" the date appears in the front end 30.11.-0001.

where is the EB_TBC_DATE ?

<?php
if ($item->event_date == EB_TBC_DATE) {
echo JText::_('EB_TBC');} else {
echo JHTML::_('date', $item->event_date, $this->config->event_date_format, $param) ; }
?>


My Timezone ist Germany - my Timeformat is d.m.Y

Hi

TBC is a constant defined in the component to support Event with no start date specified at the begining. It is defined in components/com_eventbooking/eventbooking.php :
Code:
define('EB_TBC_DATE', '2099-12-31 00:00:00');

So basically, if you want to have an event with no specific date, just set event date to 2099-12-31 and on the front-end, the event date will be displayed at TBC (to be confirmed). Ofcourse you can change this language string in Event Booking -> Translation .

Regards,

Tuan

Hi

It doesn't depend to the date format you setup. It uses the mysql date format (which is YYYY-mm-dd) . In this case, you can create a support ticket give me administrator account of your site, and I will create a sample event with No Date for you .

Regards,

Tuan

Hi,
By putting Event date as 2099-12-31 it does not show up Event date but still it shows event end date as 2016-11-30. Even if i leave it blank it shows same event end date.
How to hide event end date.
Regards

ok i got it, this happened as i copied event which had an end date. so if you create a new event with 2099-12-31 as event date it works fine

Hi Tuan,

how can i change the code to show the TBC-Date on "mod_eb_events" too?

I tried some code from other templates where it's shown correct, but i can't get it to run.

The original code is
Code:
<?php echo JHTML::_('date', $row->event_date, $config->event_date_format, null); ?>

What i tried is
Code:
<?php if ($row->event_date == EB_TBC_DATE) { echo JText::_('EB_TBC'); } else { echo JHTML::_('date', $row->event_date, $this->config->event_date_format, null) ; } ?>

Bur it only works on events detail page, but completely corrupts my homepage ;(
