Year wasn't showing, changed plugin php page to fix

I know this is absolutely not best practice, but this plugin works great and after wasting 2 hours on trying to make The Events Calendar work for my simple needs, I just started playing with the core file.

I wanted to put this out there as an example, and just in case someone out there has had the same problem and found a proper way to fix it… That would obviously be better.

I saw that the developer hasn’t been on the forum for six months, and couldn’t find another post with the solution. I hope this plugin isn’t being abandoned!

Site is in temporary directory, so it may be moved soon. After that it will get pretty links.

Changed simple-events-calendar.php

Year was not displaying, fixed it thus…

line 825
was:

$evt_time = $start_time . ' - <abbr class="dtend" title="'.date('Y-m-d',$event['event_end']).'T'.date('H:i',$event['event_end']).$tz.'">'. strftime(DATE ." ".TIME,$event['event_end']) .'</abbr>';

changed to:

$evt_time = $start_time . ' - <abbr class="dtend" title="'.date('Y-m-d',$event['event_end']).'T'.date('H:i',$event['event_end']).$tz.'">'. strftime(DATE ." ".YEAR." ".TIME,$event['event_end']) .'</abbr>';
