Quick Overview Events

EE3: The WP dashboard has a box called “Upcoming Events.” It says: “A quick overview of todays’ events. For a complete list of events visit the Events Overview page.” Is it possible to have that show This Week or Month instead?

I also saw something in the Support Forums about an Event Manager Admin page…where is that?

Hi, the dashboard widget can be set to show a range of events. For example, 30 days:

This setting is found in WP-admin –> Event Espresso –> General Settings.

The Event Overview screen can be adjusted by using the filters:

I don’t think that is the area I am referring to. I am referring to the WordPress Dashboard–when I choose in Screen Options “Upcoming Events”, it shows me today’s events only, and has the message, “A quick overview of todays’ events. For a complete list of events visit the Events Overview page.”

Hi,

That is controlled through the General Settings setting:

I had that set in my General Setting to Yes and 30 but it doesn’t seem to change it. Still just shows today’s event.

Hi,

Just to clarify:

Is there anything in the live search filter box on the dashboard widget?
Do the events have event start dates within the next 30 days (not registration start dates)?

–Live search is blank.
–Yes, we have events with start days in the next 30 days and are open.

Hi Suzanne,

I looked into this a bit. There is some code in the widget that checks for the number of events that happen today, and it’s supposed to only show today’s events if there are events scheduled to start today.

Anyway, here’s a link to a plugin that you can install. It removes the normal Upcoming Events Dashboard widget, and adds in a new widget that doesn’t check for only events happening today.
