Hi there,

To reverse the order for event listings, open archive.php and change the following on line 10 from this...

if($eventCat && !is_search() && in_category($eventCat)){query_posts($query_string . '&order=ASC');}

...to this...

if($eventCat && !is_search() && in_category($eventCat)){query_posts($query_string);}

Best,

Chris

Hi Chris,
is it possible to change the order to reverse the order? So when other categories have it assigned as the parent category, the theme will display posts in the FITURE -> PAST order.

Can you please give me a code snippet to change this?

Thanks in advance
frank

@jennaILM I'm not seeing any issues. The pages you're linking to all show posts in the past -> future order as you want them to appear (i.e. April 5th -> April 11th -> May...)

@frankeee Make sure your event categories have a main parent category that is assigned as the main event category on the Customize page. The theme detects what the main event category is. If other categories have it assigned as the parent category, the theme will display posts in the past -> future order.

Best,

Chris

Here is the link:
http://vaeter.de/category/eventcat/geburt/

Think the order is set in the archive.php on this line:
if($eventCat && !is_search() && in_category($eventCat)){query_posts($query_string . '&order=ASC');}

... but the furthest displayed first?

Hi Chris,

The problem is happening again, here is the links for rock n roll http://livemusicwilmington.com/category/all-events/rockandroll/
and alternative http://livemusicwilmington.com/category/all-events/alt/
The following calendar works correctly http://livemusicwilmington.com/category/all-events/bluesandjazz/

Please let me know how to fix it.
Thanks,
Jenna

Hi, I have the same problem: The list shows the furthest date first. I want to reverse that order. Is there a solution?

Hi there,

The page you linked to currently shows events in that order (i.e. present -> future).

Let me know if I misunderstand.

Best,

Chris

Hello:

I am getting my site together using Eventure, and wondered if you could help me change the catagory's event listings' sort order to "events closest to today" first with dates further out displaying afterwards. It is currently showing the "furthest out dates" first and I want to reverse that order.

Thank you in advance for your help.
