Suggestion for Events list

It's possible to drop Events from the list, either immediately after the start date, or after a chosen period of time after the start date.
My suggestion is that it would be better to drop them after the *end* date, not the start date, as many events last more than one day.

you can most likely just change your list call to list by end date not start date? the list order might be a lil off but i think they would stay in the list till the end date that way

That's a great point soaringeagle. The end date is an optional one which might not be active by default.

If you add 'event_date' into your jrCore_list call as a search parameter that will cause the setting on "show past events" to be ignored because you're asking for specific dates.

So if you ask
{jrCore_list module="jrEvent" search1="event_date > 0" .....}
will ignore the "Show Past Events" setting all together. add a few more in to get what you're after
{jrCore_list module="jrEvent" search1="event_date > 0" search2="event_end_date > `$smarty.now`"}
"Get events where the end date is in the future"
