Seeing past events in the List, Month, photo and weekly views

[Del Sol]

My organization uses the Event Calendar PRO in order to have a compiled, easily imported calendar that all members of our team can access via the web so everyone knows what events we are planning to attend together. An alternate goal of ours in using this plugin is to have created an archive of past events we have attended that is easy to search within and revisit past engagements.

Currently, if one clicks “previous events” within any of the view options, no events will come up. That said, we do not have events everyday necessarily, but even still we’d like whatever is in the most recent past to appear. In a perfect world we’d be able to access the last 6 months to a year of already completed events. It’s especially annoying to us that in the month view events before the current date don’t appear, making it look like we haven’t been doing and going to all the things we have been.

Hi – sorry you’re hitting difficulties. You haven’t provided a URL so I can’t check things out for myself, but ordinarily should be able to view a past events page something like this one:

http://wpshindig.com/events/past/?action=tribe_list&tribe_paged=1

Is there a reason that’s not viable in your case? I was also curious about this comment:

If you look at our demo site, though, you can see that while we’re part way through June events from earlier in the month are indeed still visible. Am I right in thinking you are experiencing something quite different?

What versions of our plugins are you using, and have you tried our standard troubleshooting steps (deactivating all other plugins and temporarily switching to a default, unmodified theme such as Twenty Thirteen)?

Thanks!

I’m glad you’ve got an interim solution 🙂

If you want to look at the other issues we definitely can – but the best starting point is to run through the troubleshooting steps I outlined in order to isolate which issues might be triggered by a conflict with your theme/another plugin and go from there.

We’re here to help if we can 🙂
