Events Booking View query string

Hello,
I need a list of possible options to add to "Query String" field in "Events Booking View" module.
I have not found it in documentation.
In my case I need to be able to load from category but limit to certain number of items. I dont want to load all of the category items.
I would also need, if possible, to be able to filter them for instance by date, or date range or other parameters.
Thanks

Hi Simon

Query String parameter is different based on the "view" you want to display in the module.

In your case, you use category view, so you can use the following paramters:

1. id

2. search

3. filter_order

4. filter_order_Dir

So as I can see, it could not be used to filter events to meet your need based on your requirement

Could you give us an example please ?

You can enter id=2&search=the_sameple_search_string

Then the system will display events from category with id=2 and has the title or description match the the_sameple_search_string which you entered above

Okay, I got the query string so it displays the correct category in the correct layout. Now, I need to know how to make the module only display the next event. Just one.

Thanks!

Go to [Extensions > Modules] and edit your [Events Booking Upcoming events] module instance. Set the value of [Number Events] to 1 and you should be set

Oops -- looks like you weren't talking about the actual Upcoming Events MODULE My bad.

Try append limit=1 to the query string. It will display 1 event instead of multiple events

Tuan

Is it possible in add a query that would allow the module to show past events for the last 6 months, and displaying the most recent to oldest?

Thanks.

Hi Dryfive

Unfortunately, it is not possible. The query string here is the variables which are passed as a GET request. It is not a SQL query, so basically, it is not possible to do what you want with this module
