[tribe_events_list city="yes" address="yes"]

[Paul]

Hi there, I’m using the shortcode: [tribe_events_list city=”yes” address=”yes”] to feed a calendar to my homepage. Can I use the same or similar shortcode to display archived or past events?

Thanks

[Geoff B.]

Good evening Paul and welcome back!

Thank you for reaching out to us.
I would love to help you with this topic.

The short answer is yes. You can display past events.
See the full list of possibilities here: https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/embedding-calendar-views-tribe_events-shortcode/

Let me know if that helps.

Have a great day!

Geoff B.

Thanks for the response. Unfortunately, I can’t see the shortcode that will allow me to show past events. If you look at the link below, you will see I an trying to have a tab to current events and one to past events. Is this even possible?

Is it possible for you to just provide the shortcode that I would use for this?

Thanks so much

Good afternoon Paul,

Thank you for writing back.

You can specify the date you are displaying in any view (e.g. [tribe_events view=”month” date=”2016-08″]). So that could be used for past events purposes.

But, there is currently no dedicated fully automatic way to achieve this (at least not built-in).

I opened a ticket to suggest that feature internally as I can totally see how that would be more robust in many cases and really cool feature to have.

In fact, I would recommend that you suggest it in our User Voice forum. That way it can get voted on.

I wish I had a better answer for you, but for now it’s the best one I have.

Best regards,

Geoff B.

Hello again Paul,

You are in luck!
One of our dev came up with the following (untested) code as a starting point: https://gist.github.com/GeoffEW/f9de188d60f3a6f9e93cb050db7f7c0a

You can place that in the functions.php of your theme and use codes such as [tribe_past_events view="list"]

I would recommend not using that on the month view though.

Let me know how that goes.

Best regards,
Geoff B.
