    Hi,

    i can’t figure out how to sort events by end-date. I use new WP_Query().
    I’ve tried the tribe_events_query_posts_orderby filter with

    add_filter( 'tribe_events_query_posts_orderby', 'change_tribe_query_orderby' );

function change_tribe_query_orderby() {
        global $wpdb;
        return "tribe_event_end_date.meta_value ASC";
}

    which worked at the front end but gave me an SQL-Error at the back end.

    I’ve also tried different query-vars like

    'orderby'=>'EventEndDate',
'order' => 'ASC'

    or

    'meta_key'=>'_EventEndDate',
'orderby' => 'meta_value',
'order' => 'ASC'

    the first one had no effect and the second one returned the events but the EventStartDate was equal to EventEndDate in the var_dump of the query.
