Hi there,

On a couple of pages (such as homepage) we have events showing in custom places. Without being able to show you (as the site’s still in local development), I’ll try explain the layout; 3 columns, 2 rows.
Position 1: latest post
Position 2: latest post in specific category
Position 3: the first upcoming event from EE4
Full width feature panel.
Position 4: the latest post offset by 1
Position 5: latest post in specific category offset by 1
Position 6: the second upcoming event from EE4

I can get Position 3 without any trouble using this:

// third - upcoming event
$event_atts = array(
	'title' => NULL,
	'limit' => 1,
	'css_class' => NULL,
	'show_expired' => FALSE,
	'month' => NULL,
	'category_slug' => NULL,
	'order_by' => 'start_date',
	'sort' => 'ASC'
);
global $wp_query;
$wp_query = new EventEspresso\core\domain\services\wp_queries\EventListQuery( $event_atts );
	if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post();
        get_template_part( 'part_list-childposts' );
	endwhile;
    endif;
wp_reset_query();
wp_reset_postdata();

When I get to Position 6, I’m having trouble returning the second soonest upcoming event. I’m wanting to use something like:
'offset' => 1
As I do in the custom queries for position 4 and 5, but I’m having no luck tracking down a list of attributes that I can use with EventListQuery.

Thanks in advance, please let me know if you need any more clarification.

Cheers,
Min
