Could you disable all the non-toolset plugins and try again as i've investigated the filter query for this and the correct information is being sent to the database.
Thanks for your message. I've deactivated all plugins except views, and the events are still not showing in date order. The events for the 7th and 19th are not showing in the homepage feed as Id expect.
I think there was an issue with the import. So I've scrapped the events and entering the events manually. Sp don't worry about a solution for this one. As They're now appearing in the correct order. I do have another issue though, the view are not displaying on any page except the homepage, see: hidden link - any ides why this is?
