    Hello Stephen,

    * the filter dropdown lists:
    Wordpress Dashboard/Events/All Events
    to the right of the bulk action apply button:
    The only option shown are: “View All categories”, “View all venues”, “View all events” for the 3 filters respectively.

    *Drop-down custom field > yes the metadata box.
    Pics & Result are fields created by me, my theme uses them if they are defined on an event.

    The dropdown listbox in the event definition used to list those extra fields as well, but that is no longer the case since several versions. The list now comprises (what I think are) all wordpress fields.
    I vaguely remember only my custom fields used to be listed, not the wordpress ones.

    I just discovered there is a limit on the number of options that listbox can show. The options start with ‘Aliases’, “code”,… and end with ‘post_id”, ‘post_mime_type’. So options from “a” to “p”.
    Pics sits in between and is shown.
    As a test,I added a new custom field “GDM”. That one is listed as well, but now ‘post_mime_type’ has disappeared.
    This is but a minor inconvenience.

    best regards
    glenn

    @nisamp17: please read the above posts too.

    relevant code excerpt:

    if( isset( $wp->query_vars['Season'] )) {
    		$events = eo_get_events(array('event-category'=>  $wp->query_vars['Season'] ));
    		print '<div id="title_important" ><b>Kampioenschap - Championnat '. $wp->query_vars['Season'].'</b></div>';
    
    	} else {
    		$events = eo_get_events(array('numberposts'-1));
    	}

    I filter on category Season (=year), because it suited my purpose better.
    The result: http://www.kartcross.be
    (Menus are a bit wonky)
    The update Stephen (Hi!) is working on will filter on the post dates.

    Hi Stephen,
    Just an update: I finally got the split events working.

    I struggled with the custom parameter; representing less than 10 lines of code and abundantly documented on the web.
    I couldn’t get it to work.
    Finally I tried with a blank WP site; it worked immediately ?!

    Back to the main site, copying the relevant code verbatim – it fails!

    At the very last, I discovered the problem:
    The events page was set as the static front page of the wp-site.

    Internally this shortens the url of the events page to http://www.example.com instead of http://www.example.com/events
    Also this resulted in the default post template being shown instead of the events template.
    I tried every rewrite rule I could think of, without success.

    Too much of a (tired) WP newbie, I gave in (for now), setting “Front page Displays = your latest posts”

    The test site works as intended (but for showing the events as start page).
    I now only have to modify the live site accordingly (hopefully).

    Thanks for your help

    Thank you. It works.
    Strange I thought I tried that already, but I must have put it in a wrong place.

    Danke
