Hello supporters,<\/p>\n
I got stuck in a problem that maybe you can help me with. <\/p>\n
In the solution I am working with, we have events from every kind. We have the community plugin, so people insert the events by themselves, and it is normal that they put a start date of the event in 1st of June and the end date at 27th of June, when they actually shall create a recurrent event instead.<\/p>\n
We want to avoid that behaviour, so we will only show events with start date after “now” (or the date on the filter bar). In order to do that I created this filter: if ($post_type == 'tribe_events') {<\/p>\n $filterDate = current_time('Y-m-d H:i:s'); $query->query_vars['meta_query'] = array( The behaviour was the expected, but then I meshed up some other things that were working fine. For example, when I click in a venue to list all the events, the query is completely changed and does not filter by venue anymore (the same with the organizers).<\/p>\n Is there any other filter more suitable for this purpose? I want it to work mainly on the main loop and also with the ajax filtering (date, category, etc).<\/p>\n Thanks in advance for your awesome help! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-967745","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\n
