Hopefully I am missing a configurable option.

I would like for administrators of events or the general public to be able to go back and look up old events in the past, so I am not hiding them.

We have a recurring event named 'Act and Alert' that happens weekly, so now the top of the lookup list for events is full of eleventy-million 'Act and Alert' events, all of them indistinguishable from one another.

What is the best way to make the lookups easier? Even if I hide all past events, future occurrences of this weekly event will go to the top of the lookup list.

Hello

Go to Events Booking -> Events, look at Themes tab, set config option Show Event Date to Yes

Now, event date will be displayed next to event title in the dropdown and hopefully, it will help you to find the event you want easier?

Yes, I think that makes it more usable. I will reach out about this issue again if I find my users struggling.
