Description
The Events Calendar provides an RSS feed for events. By default, the pubDate value is changed to the event start date, so the events show up at the time when they happen and not when they were created.
However, this can be changed back to the original publication date (the date when the event was published on the website) with the following snippet.
Usage
Copy the below code into your (child) theme’s functions.php file (or wherever you usually put custom code).
Plugins
The Events Calendar
Snippet
remove_filter( 'get_post_time', array( 'Tribe__Events__Templates', 'event_date_to_pubDate', 10 ) );
