List view to show all events

[aussieaths]

Hi,

I would like to the list view to show all events instead of defaulting to show from the current month.
Is there a setting or some way to get it to do that?

cheers

Hi there,

Thanks for reaching out! I will try to help with your question.

I’m not quite sure I understand what you would like to do here. Since the events display in order of their date, your other options would be starting at the very oldest event date and working forward in time, or starting with the farthest event in the future and working back in time.

Are one of those what you had in mind? Or can you explain in more detail how you would like the list view to behave?

Thanks,
Sky

Hi,

Yes I want the list to show all events starting form the oldest even if the date of the first event has passed.
So currently I have events that started in July but since we are now in August the list view is defaulting to show events starting from august. If you want to see the earlier events you have to use the date filter and select July for example.

Hi there,

Thanks for the additional information.

There is not a way to set this up by default. It would certainly be possible with some customization, but I’m afraid I don’t have an easy example of how you would accomplish this. We are a bit limited in the amount of support we can provide for customizations like this, but I’d be happy to point you in the right direction if you feel up to it. It would require a bit of knowledge about PHP, and the WordPress Query system.

Is this something you would like to attempt? Let me know, and I’ll try to dig up a basic example of modifying the query.

Thanks
Sky
