Limiting low_events:archive tag by year and/or month

Moogaloo 6 Nov 2012 13:02 idea, pending

I'm building a large archive section in a site with loads of past events. They're wanting to allow users to drill down from decade down to month views.

I've hardcoded the decade lists (only covers 4 decades) but in creating the lists for each year, where I want to show a list of the 12 months for, eg 2007 and then provide links to some of the events that occurred in each month of 2007, I'm thinking I need to use the archive tag to output a list of months specific to that year... there doesn't seem to be a date="{segment_3}" parameter tho to allow me to narrow down the list to a specific year - is this intentional?

    You're right, there isn't a date="" parameter for the Archive tag at the moment. Could make a good feature request, tho.

    It's not a priority tho - I've kinda hacked around it for now.
