I’ve googled this and not found answers, though it seems to be a pretty standard request. I’ve also tried implementing solutions, none of which have worked. Past events still always show in my search results.<\/p>\n

Seems that this should work, but it has no effect:<\/p>\n

add_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'edcny_pre_get_posts' );\nfunction edcny_pre_get_posts($query) {\n\tif (!is_admin() && $query->is_main_query()) {\n\t\tif ($query->is_search) {\n\n\t\t\t$meta_query = $query->get('meta_query');\n\t\t\t$meta_query[] = array(\n\t\t\t\t'key' => '_EventStartDate',\n\t\t\t\t'value' => date('Y-m-d').' 00:00:00',\n\t\t\t\t'compare' => '>=',\n\t\t\t\t'type' => 'DATETIME'\n\t\t\t);\n\t\t\t$query->set('meta_query', $meta_query);\n\t\t}\n\t}\n\treturn $query;\n}<\/code><\/pre>\n
I’ve also tried replace the $meta_query section with this:
\n$query->set('tribe_is_past', false);<\/code>
\nand then with this:
\n$query->set('eventDisplay', 'upcoming');<\/code><\/p>\n
Those also don’t work. Where am I going wrong?<\/p>\n
Thanks,
