Filtering event by time periode (start and end date) using the search bar

[Dominik Schneider]

Hi there,

I was wondering, how the visitor can filter the events by using a start and end time, to set a time periode.

Currently there are only three filters available in the search bar (“tribe-bar-filter”). I can search for events by using the start date, search word or venue. But there is no possibilty to insert an end date, to set a time periode.

For example, the visitor wants to get a list of all events, begining from the 1st June to 15th June.

Can you tell me, what template parts I have to modifiy , to add another timepicker?

Thank you!

Hi Dominik!

Thanks for the question.

If you visit the main events page on our demo site (you may need to click “Show Filters”) you can see our Filter Bar plugin in action, and this happens to supply a time filter.

It’s not quite as precise as perhaps you are seeking but certainly would be a step closer and, as with all our plugins, is built with customizability in mind. If you are or have access to a good WordPress developer you could probably tweak it to add the sort of granularity that you require.

Beyond that, you could of course create a customization achieving your goals without Filter Bar, but either way would certainly be an advanced customization and so the degree of support we can offer is, I’m afraid, on the limited side for this kind of task.

The following knowledgebase article might be a useful resource for you if you decide to explore the custom route without Filter Bar:

I hope that helps – and let em know if you have any further questions!
