Event Chronology

Events added on website follow Chronological order means that events are arranged in the order of occurrence, establishing a chronology. One way to display events visually in chronological order is with the timeline. A timeline is divided into equal time segments (day, month, year for example), with tabs representing Past events, Current event and Upcoming event.

There are two types of events you can show on your Eventum events portal
  1. Regular event – It indicates that the event is non repeating one, so you just have to choose it and will show its listing and detail page with all information that you have added in it.
  2. Recurring event – It means that an event is going to be repeated on regular time interval, so it will display you some more fields like
    “Event will repeat” – specify your event will repeat daily, weekly, monthly or yearly
    “every” – Values for this option will keep on changing according to your selection in the above “Event will repeat” field. But on wholesome, you have to be more specific that it will repeat every how many days/weeks/months/years
    lastly “Each event ends after” – Specify for how many days, your event will stay “ON”. e.g. If your event starts from 1st date of any month and lasts till 15th date of the same month then you can write 15 in this field.
Here’s the Chronology of events from the time you have added and it is removed from the website.

Past/Current/Upcoming. These tabs use “Start Date” and “End Date” of each event to know that in which tab should these events be shown. These tabs will be shown on the listing page, which means all the events on your site will be listed in these tabs according to their start and end dates and so it will be your event listing page.
Past/Current/Upcoming are different states of the event. It gives information whether the event is to be coming or is running currently or in past it has happened. The event changes the tab from Current-to-Past / Upcoming-to-Current depending on the Event’s start/end time and date.

For Example:
You have added an event with start date – 14th April 2017 10:00AM and End date – 14th May 2017 18:00PM.Until 14th April 2017 10:00AM the status of the event will remain “Upcoming”. That said the event will be displayed on the “Upcoming” tab. From 14th April 2017 10:00AM to 14th May 2017 18:00PM the status of the event will remain “Current”. Once the event’s end date and time passes away, it goes to the Past tab.

If there are more than 6 featured events to show on Homepage display post widget, The latest published 6 events will be displayed on the home page and other events go in date order.
It means, The latest published event will be displayed on the home page and other events won’t display on the home page but when you click on view more button, It will display all the featured events according to its date of published.

For eg. there are 6 events on home page called a,b,c,d,e,f. If you will add event g and h then the order of event display will be g,h,a,b,c,d, The last events e and f will be removed from the home page but it will be still displayed on all featured event page you can access it by clicking on view more button.

If event package is expired then it will be removed. No matter if the event is featured for more days than package expiration days.
