Hey Tilo. Not sure if you saw the sticky post we had here on the forum, but support was limited (and at times entirely absent) the past week due to the Thanksgiving holiday 🙂 We’re back on support this morning so you’ll receive a response on this today.

Hi Tilo,

What I would recommend doing is follow my tutorial on Customizing Widgets (https://theeventscalendar.com/how-to-completely-customize-widgets/) but do the customizing for the TribeEventsListWidget found in plugins/the-events-calendar/lib/widget-list.class.php – I would create another separate copy of the widget (still keep the old one).

Then, all you need to do is change the query there so line 43 reads:


$posts = tribe_get_events( 'eventDisplay=past&numResults=' . $limit .'&eventCat=' . $category );


instead of:


$posts = tribe_get_events( 'eventDisplay=upcoming&numResults=' . $limit .'&eventCat=' . $category );


Hope that helps.
