Hi, is there a way when you view the events in the administration area, to have them sorted by which was published most recently? (like the default wordpress posts)?
I don’t believe so, as for most people that wouldn’t really make sense. I’ll check in with the rest of the team though and see if they can think of anything here.
Barry hi,
I believe that it would make sense to a lot of people as WordPress users are used to having the posts displayed in that order. Our client complaints that there is no way to let her view the events she has recently published and indeed it is messy when you have hundreds of recurring events.
Let me know how we could achieve this kind of sorting.
Thanks in advance.Hi Webotools, you could drop a snippet like this http://pastebin.com/w96KPaBc into your theme’s functions.php file, that ought to do what you need.
Barry hi,
Thanks for your help and sorry for the delay in replying, it has been too busy lately! We tried the snippet but it results in giving us blank page in the admin area. We shall look into it again (check if it conflicts with something in our functions.php) and let you know.A blank page? It could be you’re using an old version of PHP. If so, you might need to refactor it slightly: http://pastebin.com/0RawgErv (not tested, I made those changes on the fly).
Barry, ignore the last comment, I had not seen your reply and test the code, I just added the comment to let you know the first code was not working in the front as well.
However, the new code you sent me seems to work! Thanks a lot! (http://pastebin.com/0RawgErv)OK, no problem. The first snippet required PHP 5.3+, so my fault for not writing in the earlier style first time round.
Glad you’re all sorted 🙂
