show_passed="yes" not working without custom unit

Jeremy Abrahams 14 Jul 2014 19:21 problem, complete

{exp:low_events:entries channel="seminar" url_title="{segment_3}" unit="custom" date_from="-9999 day" date_to="+9999 day" show_active="yes" show_upcoming="yes" show_passed="yes" limit="1" dynamic="no"}

I'm not able to get show_passed to work without adding the custom unit. Ideally I'd prefer to not have that in there, so I'm just wondering if there is something wrong on my end or if this is an odd bug.

    What exactly are you after? Just outputting *all* events, regardless of whether they are upcoming or passed, just sorted by their entry dates?

  2. Jeremy Abrahams 14 Jul 2014 20:07

    Yes, that is what I am looking for

    The Low Events Entries tag is best used for displaying custom sequences of entries. If you're after showing just one (or all entries/events), you might as well just use the Channel Entries tag instead, and order by the low_events field, eg:

    {exp:channel:entries channel="seminar" url_title="{segment_3}" limit="1" ... }

    I'd still like to have access to my low_events data, start_date, end_date etc, is that possible in a normal channel entries call?

    Yep. The Low Events field type is just a regular field type that works in the native channel:entries tag, too. The low_events:entries is just a wrapper for custom entry/event sequences.

    Excellent, thank you!
