With our new feature, you can now specify an end date for events, making it easier to manage multi-day weddings and events. Here’s what you need to know:
Header Date Formats
The header in the Timeline and Checklist Edit Views will now display dates in these formats:
1. Single Date
Format:
Wednesday, December 27, 2024Example: If your event is a one-day wedding on December 27, the header will simply read, “Wednesday, December 27, 2024.”
2. Date Range (Within a Single Month)
Format:
December 27-29, 2024Example: If your event spans December 27 to December 29, 2024, the header will display: “December 27-29, 2024.”
3. Date Range (Spanning Multiple Months in the Same Year)
Format:
Oct. 25 - Nov. 6, 2024Example: If your event starts on October 25 and ends on November 6, 2024, the header will display: “Oct. 25 - Nov. 6, 2024.”
4. Date Range (Spanning Multiple Years)
Format:
Dec. 27, 2024 - Jan. 9, 2025Example: If your event starts on December 27, 2024, and ends on January 9, 2025, the header will display: “Dec. 27, 2024 - Jan. 9, 2025.”
Notes on Functionality
The end date is optional. If your event does not require an end date, you can leave it as a single date.
Removing an End Date: If you add an end date but later decide to make the event a one-day event, simply delete the text in the end date field. Do not select the same date as the start date—just clear the end date entirely to revert to a single-day format.
Dashboard Visibility: If the event has an end date, it will be shown on your dashboard alongside the start date, so you can easily see the full date range for your event.
The header format will automatically adjust based on the date range you select.
This feature is especially helpful for multi-day weddings, destination events, and corporate functions.
How to Use the New Feature
Navigate to your event: Open the Timeline or Checklist Edit View.
Set the Start and End Dates: Click on the date field to input both the start and (if applicable) the end date.
Automatic Formatting: The header will display in the correct format based on your selected dates.
FAQs
Can I change the date format? No, the format is set to ensure consistency across all event timelines.
What if I only have one day? Simply use the single date format. The end date is not required for single-day events.
