I have a date and a time value in the following formats "12-may-2014" and "16:05" respectively
I am trying to convert these two values to a moment object like so
var time = moment(originalDate + ', ' + orignalTime);
this seems to return a moment object so I do this
var newTime = moment(time).add('h', 3);
console.log(newTime);
this logs the expected time "19:05"
but if I do this
var newTime = moment(time).add('m', 30);
console.log(newTime);
instead of getting "16.30" i just get the original time "16.05"
edit: the selected answer solves my problem however if I replace
console.log(newTime.format("dddd, MMMM Do YYYY, h:mm:ss a"));
with
console.log(newTime.format("HH:MM"));
I get the original problem. adding hours shows the correct result but adding minutes shows the original time
console.log(newTime.format("hh:mm"));
works as intended
