Show Page Time Display 24hr Fix (code)

If you are using the single-show.php template and displaying 24HR time there is a little problem with the 12am time output.

If a show starts at midnight and ends at 2am it outputs like this :

12:00 – 02:00

Instead of what it should be doing which is :

00:00 – 02:00

The code below will fix it so it displays correctly.

Open single-show.php and find the code that converts to 24hr time. (it’s clearly commented)

Replace it with the following :

//24hr Time
$shifts = get_post_meta(get_the_ID(), 'show_sched', true);
if($shifts) {

foreach($shifts as $shift) {

if($shift['start_hour'] >= 1 & $shift['start_hour'] <= 11 && $shift['start_meridian'] == 'pm') {
$shift['start_hour'] = $shift['start_hour'] + 12;
}

if($shift['end_hour'] >= 1 & $shift['end_hour'] <= 11 && $shift['end_meridian'] == 'pm') {
$shift['end_hour'] = $shift['end_hour'] + 12;
}

// make sure that 12pm still displays correctly
if($shift['start_hour'] == 12 && $shift['start_meridian'] == 'pm') {
$shift['start_hour'] = '12';
}

if($shift['end_hour'] == 12 && $shift['end_meridian'] == 'pm') {
$shift['end_hour'] = '12';
}

// fixes 12am display by replacing time with 00
if($shift['start_hour'] == 12 && $shift['start_meridian'] == 'am') {
$shift['start_hour'] = '00';
}

if($shift['end_hour'] == 12 && $shift['end_meridian'] == 'am') {
$shift['end_hour'] = '00';
}

// adds leading zero to 24 hour time between 1am and 10am
if($shift['start_hour'] >= 1 && $shift['start_hour'] <= 10) {
$shift['start_hour'] = '0'.$shift['start_hour'];
}

if($shift['end_hour'] >= 1 && $shift['end_hour'] <= 10) {
$shift['end_hour'] = '0'.$shift['end_hour'];
}

There’s probably a much more elegant way to do this but it works 😉
