Problem/Motivation

Right now there is a "See all" that shows up for event sections (e.g. Contribution Events) only when the items shown on the page are less than the total for the total number of events in that category. This is inconsistent in the UX.

Also, we can't see the past events for a particular category easily.

Steps to reproduce

Go to /community/events page and look at "See all" links.

Proposed resolution

1. Always add a link for upcoming events in that category
2. Change the "See all" text to something like "See upcoming events" or "See all upcoming events" or "All upcoming events"
3. Add a new link like "See past events" or "See all past events" or "All past events"

Remaining tasks

Update view

User interface changes

Users will see link for viewing all upcoming and all past events for a particular type of event.

There is a currently a link in the sidebar menu for 'Past events' - and I think it would get pretty busy to have multiple green buttons under each block. Rather than put those buttons in each block, maybe we can just add category filters to the past events page so you can filter once you land there?

For the 'see all' buttons, I think maybe we should use 'see more' or just the phrase 'see upcoming' to keep it short enough that the buttons don't get too big.

A filter on the main page would be great. And see more is fine in this context. Perhaps also a link on the full page of upcoming events for a particular type for seeing all the past events of that type. Or, better yet, a filter on that page to see all, see upcoming, or see past.

https://www.drupal.org/community/events is already a very busy page. Upcoming events are much more relevant than past events, so I think we should keep the page focused and usable, without extra links and filters to look through.

@drumm I can see your point.

I think there is still some UX issues with the going between upcoming and past though.

If I go to:

https://www.drupal.org/community/events/upcoming-events?field_event_form...

I've filtered on camps and contribution.

Then I click on the Past events link and all my selections are gone.

Why not have Past/Upcoming as filters on that page and allow choosing either or both?

Sidenote... the filters are far down on the right side and easy to miss. IMO, it would be better if they were either on the top left, or top right. I understand the DrupalCon "ad" is on the top right on purpose but it's not easy to know there are filters and they've been preselected IMO.

Status: Active » Fixed

This is deployed now, so the button labels should be at least a bit more accurate. We can handle other inconsistencies, and potentially other changes to make past events more findable, in followup issues like #3292048: Some event category heads show "Upcoming" and some do not
