Limiting the Period for an Event

[titusraj]

I get regular listings on my site. I want to limit the date period to maximum a month. This is to ensure the event does not stick on the front page forever. Also for the organiser to come in upload the event again with any changes to keep the listings fresh.

Hi Titus,

Thanks so much for reaching out!

You can move older events to the trash automatically by changing the Move to trash events older than setting and the Permanently delete events older than setting.

You can read more about that here:

Let me know if that helps!

 

Thanks,

Jaime

Hi Jamie,

It is not about deleting older events.

When someone submits an event, for example the event runs for 3 months. I do not want to give them the option of choosing 3 months from start to finish.

I want to allow a maximum of one month for any event, even if the exhibition runs for six months.

Hi Titus,

Okay, I understand now.

You can try altering this user-submitted snippet provided in the following forum thread:

If this functionality is a requirement for your intended project, I’d suggest that a third-party developer would be the best way to make this feature happen on a short timeline. ? We maintain a list of developers who work with our plugins on our Knowledgebase here:

Let me know if you have any other questions on this topic!

 

Thanks,

Jaime

I think I will wait for this feature to be made standard. Please let me know if that happens.

Okay, sounds good.

You can also add this idea to our Feature Requests, as we tend to implement ideas based on customer feedback, so your input is greatly appreciated:

Let me know if you have any other questions!

 

Thanks,

Hey there! This thread has been pretty quiet for the last three weeks, so we’re going to go ahead and close it to avoid confusion with other topics. If you’re still looking for help with this, please do open a new thread, reference this one and we’d be more than happy to continue the conversation over there.

Thanks so much!
