I have a custom field for entering (multiple) dates. Is there a good way to only show dates from today or/and the future.
I would like not to use entries for dates that are older than today. Is this possible?

If no, is there a good way to delete old entries? Maybe once per day via cronjob ?

Thank you!

Hi Roman,

Thank you for getting in touch.

Is there a good way to only show dates from today or/and the future.

Are you referring to a frontend date filter ?

If no, is there a good way to delete old entries? Maybe once per day via cronjob ?

This would be possible with a cronjob to check the fields but the code to do this is something that is out of the scope of our support forum so we wouldn't be able to help with writing this code.

Thanks,
Shane
