List view sorting by creation date not by event date

[Jonathan Vogel-Borne]

This morning I updated TEC and TEC Pro to the latest versions and I find that the list view is sorting by creation date, not by event date. I’ve activated and deactivated the plugins, disabled caches, etc. to no avail. I see a temporary fix of changing the creation date order to sync with the event date order for category lists, but the entire list (1000+ events) would be too much.

Here are some examples:

https://standrewswellesley.org/calendar/category/christmas/list/
https://standrewswellesley.org/calendar/category/christian-learning/list/

Looking for your help here, please.

Just by the way. I will be rearranging the Christmas category list, so it may look like it is in date event order, but it is pulling from creation date for its ordering.

Same problem here : \

Well, I’ve tried changing the creation date, BUT sadly no difference in sort order. While the order is the same every time I refresh the list, I cannot figure out by what criteria it is sorting (if at all).

Wanting to keep my client happy, I’ve rolled back to the previous update, TEC 4.6.7 and TEC Pro at 4.4.19. All is well on the sorting order.

Please fix in the next update…

Otherwise I REALLY really like TEC in all it does.

Yikes, thanks for catching that Jonathan & Maurillo. I’ve discovered this on our demo site as well and logged a bug report. You will be notified here as soon as we ship a fix for this. Because this impacts a wide amount of users, I’d suspect we’ll ship a hotfix in the very near future, but am not able to officially make any promises to an exact date.

Thanks
Courtney 🙂

Looks like the same bug is affecting the Events List widget.
