Swap order of long-running and short events in listings

[liblogger]

Hello – is there a way to change the order events display on the day (and month, if possible) listings, so that events that are only on a particular day are displayed above the ongoing/long-term events? We often have two or three long-running events, and this can look repetitive when one-off events are further down the page or hidden behind a see-more.

As a related question, is there any way to leverage the ‘Sticky in Month view’ setting to display sticky events in the day listing? (Our main location is closed over the holidays, but we have three long-running events at a different location, and although we can override the order they display in the Month view, the venue closure is at the bottom of the page on day views).

Thanks for getting back to me. I apologise for any confusion – I added the supplementary question because I saw it as an alternative solution for the display issue I’m trying to resolve – if sticky events displayed at the top of other listings, then the issue of long-term events displaying above daily events could be worked around by marking single-day events as sticky. I have now upvoted that feature request.

I thought it worth asking in case there was something straightforward that could be implemented – I will have a look at the templates and get back to you if I get stuck.
