Can you suggest a function or filter or something that I can use to display expired events on Event Category pages (e.g. /event-category/winter-2017/ but NOT on the main Events archive page (/events/). Thanks so much!

Hi Brenda,
You might try using an Event Espresso shortcode on a page instead. Here’s the shortcode I would use on a page:
[ESPRESSO_EVENTS category_slug=winter-2017 show_expired=true]
Hope that helps. Please let us know if you have further questions.

Hmm, thanks for the suggestion, but I don’t think that’s optimal for my situation. I’m setting this up for an end user to take over, and this would mean an extra complication of making a page for every new category on this dynamic website.
I really hardly even need the /events/ page, except that EE4 presents a link to that archive in certain situations:
Nothing in your Event Queue
You need to select at least one event before you can proceed with the registration process.
Is there some way I can change that select at least one event link?
Thanks!

The text output used there is passed through a filter so you can change it if needed, the filter is:
FHEE__Single_Page_Checkout__display_spco_reg_form__empty_msg
So something like this:
https://gist.github.com/Pebblo/4aa2463d2781170f383710ce519ca082
Then just edit the link used within the function, it currently uses get_post_type_archive_link('espresso_events') to build the link.

Hi Brenda,
Here’s an example that shows how to use the pre_get_posts hook to remove the filters that filter out the expired events on the event category archives:
https://gist.github.com/joshfeck/868ba9f309019d1b9d8b2187d56ad7bb
You can add the above to a functions plugin or into your WordPress theme’s functions.php file.

Ooh, both excellent suggestions! Josh, I set Display Expired Events to NO globally, then used your code to negate that for Category pages. Works nicely!
On on /events/, I’d also like to hide events where tickets are have ended — is there a way to filter out those?

You can use this to filter those out:
https://github.com/eventespresso/ee-code-snippet-library/blob/master/templates/de_ee_filter_events_out_with_expired_tickets.php
You can remove this part:
&& ! $wp_query->is_espresso_event_taxonomy
and add a conditional for $wp_query->is_espresso_event_taxonomy so it doesn’t filter out events with expired tickets on the taxonomy archives.

Thanks, Josh, I will give that a shot!
