Past Events order

Past events page (/m/events/browse/past) appears to order events based on creation date, not event Start Date, which from my perspective, is incorrect.

 

In most cases, events will be created in the order they occur, making this a non-issue. However, in the rare case an event is created after it occurs, the order events appear on this page is incorrect (at least to most people).

 

Recently Added events page (/m/events/browse/recent) also orders events as they were created including past events, which make it unclear why the Past events page orders them the same way.

 

Any comments?

 

Thanks in advance!

Also, I like the previous way of displaying it. Relative display like

 

XYZ event

in 12 days

 

But after 7.3 it is showing in absolute form

 

XYZ event

06.04.2016 10:00

 

You should give site owner options to display in the form they want. There should be setting in event module stating - Display Relative Date

              Display Absolute Date

              Display Both

 

XYZ event

in 12 days on 06.04.2016 10:00

 

What do you say about this?

Relative date could be incorrect for events, since event may happen in different time zones, so it have to be absolute.

would it be a good idea to add the time zone then - as a default field in the events add form - for future versions?

Yes, we'll consider it for future versions.

As a follow up to my original post, there is some confusion with the Recent home page Events block setting.

In Event settings, when the home page Events block is set to Recent, it displays events in order they were created which corresponds to the Recently Added events page (/m/events/browse/recent) which also orders events as they were created (including past events).

To clear up confusion, perhaps this Recent setting should renamed Recently Added and a Past setting added to this drop down to display events in reverse order of occurrence to correspond to the Past events page?

To summarize, when there are no upcoming events, it would be nice to display events on the home page block as they last occurred.

Thoughts?
