I have an odd issue I was hoping to get some guidance on. After our organization hosts a webinar event, we typically release summary materials, including a video capture of the webinar. Based on user feedback, it seems that people find it easiest to go back to the calendar to look for event archives&#8230;specifically webinars that have recordings.<\/p>\n<p>To address this, I created a custom link that lives at the top of the Events Calendar called &#8220;Webinar Recordings&#8221;. If a user clicks that link, all of the previous events that have been added to the &#8220;Webinar Recording&#8221; category are displayed&#8230;but it&#8217;s a long list and there&#8217;s no way to narrow the results.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m curious if there&#8217;s a way to add some functionality to the Filter Bar to allow a user to filter for past events by type [so, the category &#8220;past webinar&#8221;] and then to filter that down by tag [for example, a specific topic].<\/p>\n<p>It seems the filter bar is limited to only displaying upcoming events. I guess I&#8217;m looking for some option I can add that points the search\/filter to past events&#8230;like a toggle to &#8220;include past events in search&#8221; or similar.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks for any help or guidance!<br \/>\n&#8211;Anthony<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1323869","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Creating filters for past events -<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/theeventscalendar.com\/support\/forums\/topic\/creating-filters-for-past-events\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Creating filters for past events -\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Good afternoon &#8211; I just installed the Filter Bar Add on, which has been working perfectly for me [along with the Events Cal].
