• I want to show a text only for today and future events and hide it from past events so I used the conditional placeholder {is_future}. However, it doesn’t do the trick for today events. It treats it as past.

    Any idea how to do this correctly?

    Or can the {is_future} conditional placeholder include today events as well on the plugins nextupdate?

    check your blog timezone, future is calculated according to the start day and time of the event.

    My blog timezone is correct. Is there a way to hide a text or a block of code if it is in the past?

    what about when you try to use is_past ?

    btw, just tested this and it works fine for me.

    I tried is_past. It also hides the text of the today event. I don’t want it to do that. Text of today and future events I don’t want to hide. Only the text of the past events.

    Hope this snippet could help you; (modify as needed) paste to your theme functions

    usage:{is_today_future}..{/is_today_future}

    add_action('em_event_output_condition', 'my_em_styles_event_output_condition', 1, 4);
    function my_em_styles_event_output_condition($replacement, $condition, $match, $EM_Event){
        if( is_object($EM_Event) && preg_match('/^is_today_future$/',$condition, $matches) ){
            if( strtotime($EM_Event->event_start_date) >= strtotime(date("Y-m-d")) ){
                $replacement = preg_replace("/\{\/?$condition\}/", '', $match);
            }else{
                $replacement = '';
            }
        }
        return $replacement;
    }
