We try to manage a company with it trainings with formidable. We have created a CPT "trainings".
These trainings are managed once in a month, so we have a list of date like
01.05.2020
03.06.2020
02.07.2020
06.08.2020

Question for us was as it possible to limit the shown value for these dates to only actual values. Means dates wich are in past could be automatically hided related with a rule "2 Days before Actual date".

So in the list on top actual will show 3 Dates starting from 03.06.2020, because the first date (01.05.2020) was not in that condition (Todaydate ( 04.05.2020) - 2Days = 02.05.2020).
Means Values:
01.05.2020 (in Past)
03.06.2020
02.07.2020
06.08.2020

Was that possible?

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

As I understand, you have a custom date field added using Types plugin and you want to filter your posts by that date custom field.If this is correct - yes, you can filter your posts by a custom date field.

You should create a block view or classic view and to the Query filter section, you should try to add the custom filter for your date custom field and select the comparison as Number and grater than PAST_DAY and input the value 2.

Datefield is a number greater than PAST_DAY(2)
