I have a search view with events that have been set by date from and date to (and place).

I want the "old events": older than today to be automatically removed in the search view. So only display - and filter between -
the events of today en the futere events.

I can not find this, is this posible?

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Well - are you using any third party Events plugin or you have setup CPT events using Types and start and end date using custom post fields?

Well - You should filter your view by start date greater than equal to Now() by adding query filter for your custom start date field.

For example:

Custom field filter

Select items with field: start date is a UNSIGNED greater than or equal NOW()
