(Drupal v 4.7.4, Event Module 4.7.x-1.x-dev)

My users only need to enter the "Start date" and time for an event. (All the events are concerts, so the "End Date" and time are not relevant.) Everything works fine providing they leave the "End date" and time at the default value (which is earlier than the entered value for "Start date"). They may get unexpected results if they modify the "End date". Eg they may think they are entering a repeat event by setting the "End date" for the following day, but they end up with one concert lasting over 24 hours!

Could there be an admin option to hide the "End date" and time entry boxes altogether? (I don't know how the code works, but I think it might also be necessary to ensure that the start date and time variables are ignored, or are earlier than the entered start time.)

yes, i am looking around for the same thing...

my first approach was to use hook_form_alter in my own module to disable the end fields.. and also to change the weighting of the field so it shows up in the right place (rather than at the top) of my form.. but i don't have access to it from form_alter.. likely cuz it is using form_alter to do its bit and i guess mine comes up first???

but all this seems likely it should be pretty easy to add
