Hey - Shane - sorry but my issue is to crazy for me - https://toolset.com/forums/topic/filter-did-not-work-on-submit-button/

can you have a look at this? - how can i connect these two filters?

in this page it works correctly - i only copied these two views corrected the settings and the shortcodes from hidden link in the new once which i used on hidden link:

from:
[wpv-form-view name="veranstaltungs-liste-filter01" target_id="self"]

[wpv-view name="veranstaltungs-liste-date-filter01" wpvrelatedto="[wpv-view name='veranstaltungs-liste-filter01' view_display='layout']"]

to:
[wpv-form-view name="veranstaltungs-liste-filter01-archiv" target_id="self"]

[wpv-view name="veranstaltungs-liste-date-archiv" wpvrelatedto="[wpv-view name='veranstaltungs-liste-filter01-archiv' view_display='layout']"]

in the view of archiv is a additional filter to show all from Today in past.

thx a lot and please have one look on it 8)

best regards - alex

Hi Alex,

Thank you for getting in touch.

Would you mind allowing me to have admin access to the site so that I can have a more detailed look at this one for you ?

I've enabled the private fields for your next response.

Thanks,
Shane

Hi Alex,

This should be filtering correctly now. The problem was that on this view below.
hidden link

You were using the wrong date filter on the post. You had the Date and time custom field when it should've been the letzter Termin custom field.

Please let me know if everything is working as intended now.
Thanks,
Shane

#2455639

Hi Shane - yes but in view if filter through this custom date field also, and it works..

look here: hidden link

thx for help - alex

Hi Alex,

This is because this view is displaying a completely different post type.

Its displaying the repeatable field group "Termine" while your other view is displaying the "Veranstaltungen" post type.

On the Veranstaltungen post type this date custom field doesn't exist on the post itself but rather in a repeatable field group. In such a case you won't be able to use the repeatable field date field to filter the post itself as essentially a different post type in a relationship with the Veranstaltungen post type.

Please let me know if this clarifies the issue for you.
Thanks,
Shane

[wpv-form-view name="veranstaltungs-liste-filter01" target_id="self"]
[wpv-view name="veranstaltungs-liste-date-filter01" wpvrelatedto="[wpv-view name='veranstaltungs-liste-filter01' view_display='layout']"]

->

i found a bug in Filter for custom fields - it work only "if string is greater than" - "if string is smaller than" it dont show some results!

And we can have this relationship from Function in tssupp-multi-rfg-parents -> hidden link i can give IDs for having multi-parents

thx for helping - best regards - alex

Hi Alex,

Both views are similar but not the same. This 1 doesn't have a date filter.
hidden link

While this one does
hidden link

So there are some differences.
it work only "if string is greater than" - "if string is smaller than"

The dates in the database are stored as a timestamp, so when writing the date filters you will need to compare it to a number. Dates before today() are less than the value of today so this should work since its a numeric comparison.

However is the view currently displaying the correct information ? I want to have a second look but I think there are some things that i'm unsure about. Mainly which filters are required.

Thanks,
Shane

#2457219

Hi Shane,

for first question - date filter hasen't a function - now i removed it from 27219 complete.

it work only "if string is greater than" - "if string is smaller than" -

Yes this is a string/timestamp - how can i filter "if string is greater than" but not "if string is smaller than" with same field?

thx for you helping - alex

Hi Alex,

The filter should work. I did a quick check and it does appear to be working even when I did a test on my end. It is important that the date filter is set to compare as a number. If it is set to compare as a string you may not get an accurate result.

Thanks,
Shane

#2458963

hi Shane,

thats great! - that work - but why is it greater than working with string? - > this is only a question rhetorical..

And: ist there a kind get Dates (Datum und Uhrzeit) of this in the Dropdown above Taxonomies? For Filtering?
hidden link

Hi Alex,

Happy i'm able to assist you thus far.
but why is it greater than working with string

The most I can say on this is that when you're using the string comparison the behavior can be unpredictable and inconsistent.

And: ist there a kind get Dates (Datum und Uhrzeit) of this in the Dropdown above Taxonomies? For Filtering?

Not sure i'm understanding full the issue here.

Also yes i'm from Jamaica 🙂

Thanks,
Shane

Hi Alex,

Unfortunately no you won't be able to do this given that the view with the search doesn't have the date field on it. Unless you're going to be filtering your view by the letzter Termin date field.

Thanks,
Shane

#2461369

hi Shane,

another way: can i took the last date of "Datum und Uhrzeit" automatical set content to "letzter Termin" - Is this possible?

thx for you answer

Thanks - alex

Hi Alex,

Yes this can be possible, will you be setting it manually as to set it automatically will require some amount of custom coding. However if you do set the date to the last item then this can work since we will now be able to filter the posts.

Thanks,
Shane
