'Today' link clears Filter Bar Filters

[phylaxis]

I’m having an issue where clicking the ‘Today’ link clears the filter bar filters. Here is the code i’m using for my today link:

<li class="cell small-8 tribe-events-nav-today bdc-nav-today"><a href="<?php echo Tribe__Events__Main::instance()->getLink( 'month' ) ?>">Today</a></li>

Should i be generating this link in a different way? Maybe i have the wrong function?

Hi. I see the “Today” link in the middle above your calendar at http://avalon.dance/events/

The link you generate with your code is as expected, since it’s a direct link to Month View, not taking into consideration the existing URL query string.

It might help to pair what you have with https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8469767/get-url-query-string or some other way to incorporate the URL query string.

Please let me know how this goes for you.

So just to confirm/clarify @cliff, it is default behavior for the “today” link to clear/reset the Filterbar filters when installed with Events Calendar Pro? I was hoping that using the “today” link would be smart enough to know that filters are applied (like the previous and next month buttons).

[Cliff]

Your “Today” link is a link you generated with your own code. And your code simply links to the Month View regardless of where the user currently is (i.e. their currently-applied filters).

Please let me know if this isn’t clear.

Sorry, yes. That’s clear. I guess I was asking, is there another “official” way to accomplish this functionality that I missed in the documentation? One that would better support the Filterbar.

There isn’t an “official” way to accomplish this functionality. I hope you’re able to figure it out. Please let me know how this goes for you.
