Hi, we are using Event Espresso for booking some theatre events (performances). The performances are listed here http://www.clientdevelopment.co.uk/gaga/book-tickets/, but they aren’t showing in the correct order, e.g. please see http://screencast.com/t/7GtmtTqbQ. How can we order by time as well as date?

Thanks in advance

BTW, we’re using espresso table shortcode there [ESPRESSO_TABLE]

Hello Rachael,

There really isnt an easy way of doing this. The time is actually not held int hat database, and is pulled in via a different function.

It could be possible to pull that database table into the query but I had a hard time doing so. I’ll see if a developer can have a look and see if it is possible or not with the current way the shortcode is designed.

Hi Rachael,

There’s a way to add in the start times to the query so that it can order by date then time. Normally it only pulls in date.

I posted a gist of a modified espresso_display_table function (link below). You can replace the espresso_table_function that is included in the espresso_table.php template with the one in the gist to add time ordering.
