I thought that would be easy but I cannot find how to use a different order for future/current and past events.
What I want is for Future/Current events to order from the most recent to the future and for the Past events from the most recent to the past.
I thought I could change this in settings -> Pages -> Event List/Archives and at Event Categories
I use for both order by start date, start time, then event name. Ascending, Descending, Ascending
I thought that the “Ascending, Descending, Ascending” was referring to “#_CATEGORYPASTEVENTS, #_CATEGORYNEXTEVENTS, #_CATEGORYALLEVENTS“
But now I think its only for the “start date, start time, then event name”
I Read on Event List/Archives
“These can be overridden when using shortcode or template tags.”
How can I do that? Is there a filter I can use to simply order the past events from the most recent to the most distant to the past?
