Solspace Calendar: conditional for minutes?

Question

I'm trying to find a way in Calendar for start times that are on the hour (e.g., 8:00pm) to output as "8pm" and for times that are not on the hour (e.g., 8:15pm) to output as "8:15pm". I'm not figuring out how to write the conditional to do that. Any ideas?

EDIT: Just to make this a little more clear, I want any times that are on the hour to just be the hour (8:00pm should render as 8pm) and any times that are not on the hour should have the hour and the minutes (8:25pm should render as 8:25pm).

Answer 1

You should have a look at the demo templates, as this problem was solved there. :)

You actually need to use a different time variable available to you:

{event_start_date format="%g"}
{if event_start_minute > 0}
   :{event_start_minute}{event_start_date format="%A"}
{/if}

Answer 2

You should be able to handle this like any other conditional using the event_start_date variable.

So if you wanted something that wasn't a specific hour, but for ANY time, you could do something like:

{if "{event_start_date format='%i'}" == "00"}
    {event_start_date format='%g:%i%A'}
{if:else}
    {event_start_date format='%g:15%A'}
{/if}
