Many events often go for more than one day, but the Upcoming Events modules only display the first day of an event.
This makes it appear that a multi-day event is only being held on one day.
Is it possible to add a config setting to optionally display the start AND end day in the modules?
Also Event Properties displays "Event Date" again with the first day only, ideally should say 'Event Date(s)" showing the start and finish dates.
Wishlist Tuan?

Hello,

The latest version of EB contains a few config parameters to control the display of dates.
In the configuration tabs "General" and "Themes" you could find e.g.
Show event end date
Show event end date in table layout
Show all dates of event with multiple dates in calendar.

I didn't make an exhaustive check.

Sincerely,
Leon

Thanks for your reply Leon, but none of those config options affect the date display in the Upcoming Events module eg
Show event end date - actually the wording is "Show events until event end date" so not applicable
Show event end date in table layout - does not apply to the module
Show all dates of event with multiple dates in calendar - again not applicable to the module

Is there anyone else wishing the "Events Booking - Upcoming events" module would shows start and end dates of a multi-day event rather than just the start day?

Hi to all,
I have a similar problem with the calendar view. When I have an event for example 3 days from today on it will show in timeline view on top for the next 3 days. It is just one event for 3 days and not saved as an recurring event and have no additional dates.

My problem is, that this event just appear at the first day in the calender view (mini calendar - daily view). When I switch to the second or third day in calender view the event don´t appear anymore although it takes place on several days.

I know that I could add additional dates to make the event appearing in calender view the following days but often I don´t have an exact start time for the second or third day of the event. Also it is more work to add additional dates for events like this.

Maybe Tuan you can find a solution in next updates - thanks.
