Adding Time and Data Variables Using Short Codes

Split-Flap TV can be used to show your texts, your messages, your promotions, and more on television screens. You can also show the current time and date on your screens by using some short codes on your pages.

For the time and date short codes, we have 2 groups. The first group comes without specifying the time zone, and it will return the time or date of the time zone set at device level itself. The second group comes with a second parameter (being the time zone ID) when you want to display the time or date of that specific time zone. The list of possible time zone IDs can be found below.

So if you want to show the current time in 24 hours format, just use short code #TM01#.

If you want to show the current time in AM/PM notation of New York, then use short code #TMTZ02#Eastern Standard Time#

All the shortcodes below can be used in the Economy or First Class Split-Flap TV subscriptions.
