Is it possible to filter by category AND status? The category shortcode is working great but is shows both active and upcoming events but we only want to show upcoming (because active can no longer be registered for). Is this possible?

Update:
I was given this suggestion:
Here is a sample code snippet that you can use in a site specific plugin (https://eventespresso.com/wiki/create-site-specific-plugin-wordpress-site/):
https://github.com/eventespresso/ee-code-snippet-library/blob/master/templates/de_ee_filter_events_out_with_expired_tickets.php
It will remove expired events from the events listing view. This affects the default /events/ page along with the [ESPRESSO_EVENTS] shortcode.
However, I implemented this and I think the problem is that the list is showing both upcoming and active events. For us, events that are active can no longer be registered for and we therefore do not want them to show up in the list. Does anyone else have a suggestion on how we might be able to make this work properly?
Thanks so much!

Hi there,
I’ll need to ask one of our developers when they come back online Monday, if not over the weekend.

Hi there,
The code snippet you linked to above (this one) actually filters out events where the tickets are no longer for sale. So if your active events have ticket sale end dates in the future, then the filter in that snippet will continue to show those events in the list.
So you can take one of these two approaches: a) You set the Ticket Sale end date to match or be before the date time start date or b) You add the following snippet to your site:

Thanks Josh! I inserted the code (both yours as well as the previous suggestion) and it doesn’t seem to work. I had inserted the list onto a page using the category shortcode. Do I need to modify the function to apply to all lists, event the category lists?

There is no need to modify the function, it applies to all lists, even the category lists. If you added the code to a plugin, did you activate the plugin?

I cannot believe it was that simple. Thanks Josh and I am sorry that it was something on my end! That fixed it and I am so so so excited that we got this working.
THANK YOU!!
