is there a way to display past events in a certain category

[flyingarts]

Hi there – I would like to be able to display past events from a certain catagory either by way of shortcode or through the calendar, is there a way to do this?

cheers

Hi Stephen,

Yeah, that’s definitely possible!

You can follow this URL format to see past events for a specific category:

[your-site]/[events-slug]/category/[category-slug]/?tribe_event_display=past

So, for example, if my calendar is located at /events and I have a category called BBQ, that would look like this:

[your-site]/events/category/bbq/?tribe_event_display=past

Does this help? Please let me know. 🙂

Cheers!
Geoff

great thanks Geoff – is there a way to show this in the shortcode as well?

[flyingarts]

Okay thanks Geoff – I’ve just tried to find a past event or one of my categories and it doesn’t seem to show.

Here is the URL

http://flyingarts.pboworkspace.info/programs-events/category/early-childhood-the-arts/?tribe_event_display=past

Note that the /events/ slug has been changed to /programs-events/

any clues as to how to get this working?

Oh, I see: Month View is set as your default. Showing past events in Month View would be tricky for sure, especially since Month View already shows past events in the grid.

Try pulling up past events in List View instead. So, for example:

http://flyingarts.pboworkspace.info/programs-events/category/pd4-artists/viz-arts-live-online/list/?tribe_event_display=past

Let me know if this helps clarify things a bit. 🙂

Cheers,
Geoff
