There are 2 issues with the Event Filter:
1. When filtering past events by 'sort by closest date' the sequence starting from the top of the page is from the earliest date in ascending order each year, not the correct/most recent date and descending order without starting again for a different year (descending image date within each year is the current incorrect sequence).
2. There are two event filters, how do I get the default visible filter to be 'sort by recently added' instead of 'sort by closest date'?
Suggestion
Members and Visitors will still wish to look at an event stream for a period of time after the event is completed, but the event is automatically hidden in past events as soon as it is over.
If a 'Hide Event After' global field was in admin settings and the number of days is entered (default is always 7 days if not changed) it would solve the problem.
Add a Hide Event field in setting up an event that could override the global default.
