Events Order

[Emily Nein]

Hi! We are having a lot of trouble getting our events to show up in the right order.

On the home page widget, the most recently added event is showing up at the top regardless of the event date.
In the list view on the calendar page, events are not in order. If you go to that page, initially it looks fine, but then if you go to the next page, you will see that the events are not in order.

I have tried the “Use Javascript to control date filtering” and no luck. I have been able to use the reorder tab on the left to rearrange things, but this is really a pain to work with (especially if the date is far off).

Hello LeAnne,

Sorry you’re having issues here – I’m curious, though, about what sort of ordering you’re looking for. In the calendar widget on your site’s homepage, events are listed by date with the soonest events at the top, progressively getting further into the future as the list descends.

When I go to your calendar’s main list view at http://www.standrews.net/calendar/list/, I see this same order.

Is that the list view you’re describing as the place where you’re having your issues with event ordering? If not, can you link directly to the problematic page?

If that’s the correct page, but the order is indeed still broken, elaborate on what you’re looking for that’s different than the order already in place.

Thanks!
George

Hey! Wow! Thanks for getting back to me so quickly!! 🙂
In the mean time, I disabled a post type order plugin and that seems to have fixed the problem. Sorry for the trouble!
Have a great day!

Awesome! Glad to hear the issue resolved. I’m curious, any chance you can share a URL to where you originally found that post type order plugin? I only ask because if it’s a popular plugin by any means, and there is an incompatibility with Events Calendar, it might be worth me bringing up in one of our support meetings as a potential bug to fix.

Just curious – no worries if it’s the sort of thing you stumbled on long ago and can’t find now.

Let us know if you have any other questions or concerns here. If not, I’ll go ahead and close up the ticket to keep things neat & organized 🙂

Cheers,
George

I think I may have downloaded it with the theme??? can’t really remember…i’m using the inovado theme by Minti Themes

Thanks for sharing this! Good to know, and it’ll be useful to have this in case we see other customers have similar conflicts.

Best of luck with your site. I’ll close up this particular support ticket for now, but if you have other issues or questions, come back any time and open a new one.

Cheers 🙂
George
