Does CiviEvent handle "all-day" events, events in which you set the start and end days, but not the time. The output also shows date but no time?

Thanks,

Shai

Hello Shai,

I've been using a fairly simple work around for this limitation. I set the start date and time to reflect the time I want/expect attendees to begin arriving (i.e. 10/31/2012, 9:00 AM). then I make certain to mention in the event description that it is an all day event, using terms like "9AM until ???". I haven't had any issues, and it helps cut down on Early arrivals.

Cheers!
Jason
