Tribe Get Events Upcoming V3.1

[Andy]

I just updated to 3.1 and everything is running faster, but I have found a small problem. I use
tribe_get_evetns in a shortcode to pull up a list of upcoming workshops with a specific tag associated with them. This has always worked up until now. It returns all posts with that tag as well as past events. Funny that it still works with past events, and when I specify a venue. What could be the problem?

Here is my code

$all_events = tribe_get_events(
array(
‘eventDisplay’=>’upcoming’,
‘posts_per_page’=>-1,
‘tax_query’=> array(
array(‘taxonomy’ => ‘post_tag’,
‘field’ => ‘slug’,
‘terms’ => $atts[‘code’])
))

The problem seems to be caused by tax_query, it seems to be querying all posts and events when I add that. Using tribe_get_events for a specific venue or just any upcoming event works fine. Any ideas why this would stop working?

Hi Andy,

I think you are right and perhaps the taxonomy query is taking precedence and perhaps causing other query properties to drop … we’ll make a note to look into this – and sorry for the inconvenience in the meantime 🙂

I needed to do something similar and got it to work by using the brief form of the taxonomy query arg:
‘post_tag’ => ‘featured’

Thanks seattleunity: Andy does that provide you with a viable workaround at all?

[Andy]

Hmm that doesn’t seem to be working. Same problem.

[Barry]

OK, that’s unfortunate. I have filed a bug report and we’ll definitely look into resolving this – in the interim I’m afraid you’ll need to devise a different workaround.

[Andy]

Thanks Barry. I’ve figured out an ugly workaround involving WPQuery, post types and date comparisons. Does the job, just not as elegant as ‘upcoming’.

Glad you figured out a solution 🙂 and we’ll hopefully have a chance to investigate and make any changes that might be necessary in our codebase as we prepare our next few maintenance releases.

I’ll go ahead and close this thread for the time being, though. Thanks!

Hi, folks. This is just a note to let you know that we didn’t get a chance to look at your issue for our maintenance release this time around.

We do plan to find a way to help you out with this. We look forward to addressing this as soon as we’ve got bandwidth/resources to allow it.

Thanks for being part of the TEC community!
