tribe_get_events() stopped working after update

[Trevor Albrecht]

I’m assuming this function has been removed in v3, as it worked in v2 just fine. What is the new one called? I just need to get an array of the upcoming events. It’s for a custom news ticker.

Hi Trevor! Actually tribe_get_events() remains a core plugin function and should still operate, though event querying has tightened up some so it could be that some queries which used to return results no longer do so.

[Trevor Albrecht]

Here’s how I’m using it now and it’s returning an empty array:

$events = tribe_get_events(array(
‘start_date’ => $current_date,
‘end_date’ => $end_date,
‘eventDisplay’ => ‘all’,
‘posts_per_page’ => -1
));

Can you show me an example of show it should be used?

[Barry]

How are your $current_date and $end_date variables formatted? Are they in Y-m-d (yyyy-mm-dd) format?

[Trevor Albrecht]

That was the issue, that must have changed in the recent update. It’s working now, thank you.

[Barry]

Excellent!
