Order events by start date

Hi,

Currently it only lists on end date. Regarding your request to only list on start date, this will cause a problem in case you have multiday events. Because end date is used to determine until when the event should stay listed in frontend of your website. Until now I didn’t find a solution to list on start date, when there are multiple events with the same end date. But I hope to add this soon.

I really like the plugin. I like its simplicity. I’m having the same issue though. Would be great if it could order chronologically by Start Date, otherwise the order of events with over-lapping date spans seems off. Could still use End Date to determine when an upcoming events expires.

Thanks.

Hi,

I fully understand you, but having a hard time adjusting plugin so it works like it should. Because when I only list events on start date a multi-day event will not be listed anymore when start date ends. It’s quite difficult to use both dates in a query. To be honest, I do want to change this behavior myself but did not find a proper fix for this…

Hu guys,

It might be much easier as I thought before… I only have to change the event order from enddate to startdate. This is a very easy fix; I don’t have to adjust the event query. And event stays listed until enddate expires. I will keep you informed.
