It's driven me crazy (but not crazy enough to post an issue) that the event listings on g.d.o stop listing an event the day it occurs. For instance the Lullabots are in Portland today but you wouldn't know it looking at the group page. It'd be great if events could stay on the page and in the feeds until after they've occurred.

Somewhat related -- the views for available/current signups should be filtered by date, too. For example: http://groups.drupal.org/user/431/signups/available

The solution is to add a filter for the event node type's date field ("field_start7" on g.d.o, it seems) to the two views:

http://groups.drupal.org/admin/build/views/signup_available_signups/edit
http://groups.drupal.org/admin/build/views/signup_current_signups/edit

I wanted to mention it here since we should add the filter in such a way as not to have the problem described by drewish regarding other views of event nodes where the events disappear too soon.

@drewish - you are now an admin and editor on gdo. please have a look at the Views and just change as needed.

I changed the datestamp filter to now-43200 on the following views:
* upcoming_group
* upcoming_home_block_ical_group

That leaves the event on the calendar for 12 hours after it starts which makes it a lot more usable. The best thing would be to have it be 12 hours after the end time so if you had an all day event you'd see it but I don't think the finish time is a required field. Actually I think that'd require writing a new views filter. I think the current changes should suffice though.

Sounds good. I had received this complaint before. Thanks for fixing it.

i tried looking at the signup views that dww mentioned but didn't see similar filtering occurring so i'm going to mark this as closed.

the point of my commentbis that there's currently no date filtering at all on those views and there should be. I'll deal with this when I get back to my desk.

Done. While I was at it, I made those views into tables that also list the times of the events and the group(s) they're associated with:

http://groups.drupal.org/user/431/signups/available

Enjoy,
