Finished events dosn't dissapear.

[Anonymous]

I have list with upcoming tv transmisions and i’d like them to dissapear from list after transmision is finished. I’ve added “End Date and hour” but events are still visible till the end of day.

Is there anything i can do to achive that ?

For the moment it’s based on the date only. But if you want this, edit eme_events.php and change line 1244 and next from:

//$conditions [] = " ((event_start_date = '$today' AND event_start_time >= '$this_time') OR (event_start_date > '$today') OR (event_end_date > '$today' AND event_end_date != '0000-00-00' AND event_end_date IS NOT NULL) OR (event_end_date = '$today' AND event_end_time >= '$this_time'))";

// not taking the hour into account until we can enter timezone info as well

$conditions [] = " (event_start_date >= '$today' OR (event_end_date >= '$today' AND event_end_date != '0000-00-00' AND event_end_date IS NOT NULL))";

to

$conditions [] = " ((event_start_date = '$today' AND event_start_time >= '$this_time') OR (event_start_date > '$today') OR (event_end_date > '$today' AND event_end_date != '0000-00-00' AND event_end_date IS NOT NULL) OR (event_end_date = '$today' AND event_end_time >= '$this_time'))";

// not taking the hour into account until we can enter timezone info as well

//$conditions [] = " (event_start_date >= '$today' OR (event_end_date >= '$today' AND event_end_date != '0000-00-00' AND event_end_date IS NOT NULL))";

As you can see: the code is already there …

I did it but it dosn’t work 🙁

Use also “scope=future” to the [events_list] shortcode

$this_time should be $this_hour in code. I think??

$today = date(“Y-m-d”);

$this_hour = date (“H:i:00”);

[Franky]

yes (it is unused code after all), but I changed ‘$this_hour’ into ‘$this_time’ (same result) at line 1181

Hey Franky,

Is there a way to get this to work on the events/?calendar_day=2011-04-09 page for example as well? Right now it shows events that run past midnight from the previous day.

I changed

if (preg_match ( “/^[0-9]{4}-[0-9]{2}-[0-9]{2}$/”, $scope )) {

// $conditions [] = ” event_start_date like ‘$scope'”;

$conditions [] = ” ((event_start_date like ‘$scope’) OR (event_start_date <= ‘$scope’ AND event_end_date >= ‘$scope’))”;

to

if (preg_match ( “/^[0-9]{4}-[0-9]{2}-[0-9]{2}$/”, $scope )) {

$conditions [] = ” event_start_date like ‘$scope'”;

// $conditions [] = ” ((event_start_date like ‘$scope’) OR (event_start_date <= ‘$scope’ AND event_end_date >= ‘$scope’))”;

and it seems to work. Looks like you had the code in there already, maybe ??

@linkshark: can you create a feature request for this? Seems like the “long_events” option for the calendar shortcode should be present also for the events_list shortcode.
