Display a link to the archived (past) events

Hi @olegbezuglov,

Unfortunately no, there is no way to specifically link to past events, but you can set a default start date in the past under Events > Settings > Viewing Events tab > Default Calendar Start Date.

Thanks! It could have worked if it’s possible to sort events from starting from the future going to the past, because otherwise it displays all the events starting from the long past ones…

And so, do we have a solution? @sunny454

@olegbezuglov

There is no way to change the sort order of displayed events because they are set to display in chronological order.

@sunny454 too bad. Maybe consider improving this feature of the calendar. You have an outstanding plugin, but this seems like a major flaw to me… It should be a way to display past events, like an archive or something. I bet many people would wish it.

@olegbezuglov you can submit a feature request here:

Our dev team implements features that are feasible.

Hmm. I find this statement hard to believe, since there is a website that has the order reversed: getmyhallpass.com

It’s very frustrating to be told by the authors that something is not possible, when we see it is. Also very frustrating to not get responses. Still no reply to some of my requests over 10 moths ago. All I’m looking for is a way to reverse the sort order in posterboard view (or any view for that matter), so that new gigs come up first, so that views don’t have to scroll all the way down to see new events.

If you look at the site I referenced, you will see that what I want to do is possible, yet no one can say how it’s done……

Hi @thefonzie,

As I said before, it is not possible to reverse the sort order of event listing on the front end of the calendar. The calendar you provided is using an old and outdated version of our plugin, Version 2.5.15, and it is showing events in random, not reversed, order (it’s a bug which was fixed).

Our company, Timely, has been making improvements in our Support response times since we have been growing over the past year, and have not always been able to keep up with support requests in the past — for this I apologize. Since then, we have streamlined our support response times for all users and are now keeping up with providing prioritized support for all customers, including free calendar users.

In order to obtain what you requested, I provided the proper channels and the best way to achieve what you are asking for in my previous message — once again, if you wish for the ability to change the front end sort order, you can submit a feature request here:
