Feed shows date of event publication instead of date of event

[Rafael]

The rss feed shows the date the event was published, instead of the date the event takes place. Does anyone know how to correct this?

Hey Rafael. You may be able to find a workaround solution by reviewing the forum archives here (from what I recall folks who changed the feed had the best luck with a third-party plugin of some kind), but it’s worth noting that this is definitely on our radar. We have had a lot of requests to make the RSS feed more specific to events (showing the date of the event, not the date of publication, and to include more events data).

We’re working on that now as we plan on including such a fix somewhere in the 2.1 lifecycle, given how many people are requesting it. That should be deployed sometime in the fall.

Hope this helps and sorry I couldn’t offer up more. If you have other questions or if you need anything else please let me know.

Hello Rob. Thank you for your quick response and advice. I will try to find a solution in the forum for now. And I definitely look forward to more rss feed support in a future version of the plugin. Thanks and keep up the great work.

Thanks for the follow-up, Rafael – and we appreciate your understanding on this. We’ll post here on the forum once we’ve got that code ready to go, as we realize a lot of folks are interested in it. Thanks for your patience — and your words of support — in the interim. Sounds like we’re all set with this thread but if you need anything else down the road please let us know.
