Hi

How do i Change Ascending/Descending on Past Events, When i go to past events it list the first event we ever did and i have to cycle through loads of pages to get to the last. Is it possible to display last event First?

Thanks

Steve
Hello Steve,

I've modified your file: ../components/com_easysocial/views/events/view.html.php. You can see on line 292 and change the direction. Please give it a try.

Hello Steve,

I am sorry for the delay of this reply.

You are most welcome. Glad that your issue has been resolved now.
By the way, this modification will not be included in the next release. You need to backup the file after each update

Hello Steve,

I am sorry for the delay of this reply.

Please add the following code inside your /components/com_easysocial/views/events/view.html.php at line 292:


$options['direction'] = 'DESC';


For future references I attach the file below and you can download it later

I've done a bit of testing and it doesnt always work, is it possible that the 2 little tabs at the top right (sort by event date & sort by creation date) could be changed to show events ascending and decending?
