Need event time in emails was created by Melissa
I often have events of the same name on the same day. I don't want to name the event with it's time in the title but when the emails go out (to participants & me), there is no way to include the time of the event in the message; it only includes the date.

Is there a way to add in the time (start/stop) as a tag or do I have to rename all the events to include the time in the title?

Thanks,
Melissa

Hello

You can use [EVENT_DATE_TIME] tag

:( When I used that tag, which isn't listed as an available tag, it gives me this in the message: "Time: %0%+00:00"

Unless there's something else I can try, I guess I'll have to put the time in the title.

Hello Melissa

Could you please go to Events Booking -> Configuration, look at Time Format config option, and let me know it's current value?

Event Time Format field says %I%P (I think it's an i)

Hello Melissa

It is wrong format (maybe from very old version of Events Booking). Change it to H:i should work. For list of supported parameter, see php.net/manual/en/function.date.php

Thanks, that change is working!

An FYI for anyone else reading this; the tag used shows the start time, only. That's all I need, though!

If anyone wants to show event end time, there is another tag available EVENT_END_DATE_TIME
