Sorry, at the moment the only option would be to create a custom date range with PHP:
http://wp-events-plugin.com/tutorials/create-your-own-event-scope/
I saw that, but it looks like it would require someone to edit the PHP each time you wanted to change the scope and that it might be difficult or impossible to pull specific dates rather than dates relative to today’s timestamp. Is that correct?
If that’s true, then unfortunately it’s not a viable workaround for our purposes, but thank you for the answer.
It should be possible to use a “dynamic date”, meaning it looked for Dec 25th last year, for example.
That would mean once created wouldn’t need updating every year.
I am not sure if this will help you…
Go into your “dashboard”.. that is Events page where it shows all your listed events.
Now look up at the URL in your browser.. it should look something like this…
….wp-admin/edit.php?post_type=event
now add this to the end for your date…
&scope=2015-12-25
thus.. ….wp-admin/edit.php?post_type=event&scope=2015-12-25
and hit enter.. it should work (works for me).
If maybe you wanted to search specific categories… use the drop down box for the category… pick any “scope” in the box… hit filter.
Then go up in the browser URL and change the scope to the date you want… hit enter.
I tried a range of dates but it doesn’t seem to work in a “URL”.
ie 2015-12-25,2015-12-31
You could use your Events Search Form if you have one for a range of dates… but you can’t bulk edit that list.
Robswaimea — it would be great to have a solution without directly altering the URL, but that’s an AMAZING work around and pulls up just the data we need. I imagine it will be a little difficult to get my less tech literate colleagues to understand it right away, but it’s so much simpler than deleting things one by one, so I’m hoping they’ll be motivated to learn.
It’ll certainly make MY life easier.
Thank you.
