Condition Date only before and after

[Regnalf]

I’m using a custom looper for an event list where only the events with current or future dates should be displayed.

Condition “Expression datetime”:
{{dc:looper:field key=“event_start”}} ‘after’ {{dc:global:date}}

Unfortunately, the condition query at the date only offers me before and after! If i use after, it drops also dates with current date!!
I need something like >= in the condition query!

Hi @Regnalf,

Thanks for reaching out.
If you want to specify only the before or after date, I would suggest you use Query String and use the date_query, please go through the following article on it.

https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/classes/wp_query/#date-parameters
https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/180168/date-query-not-returning-some-posts-in-date-range

And also go through the following article by my colleague Kory to construct the query for the Query String while using the date_query.

You can also check the following article on the date value.

Hope it helps.
Thanks

The wp query solution is not helpful because the looper is created from a related post ACF. So the date question must be solved differently.

I will make this check in the looper itself now, but anyway:
If you have a date time condition there SHOULD be “before”, “after”, “today and before”, “today and after” and “today” in the condition query!!!

Hi @Regnalf,

Regretfully, there is no such option available in the Date option of Looper Provider. I suggest you again use the Query String instead.

Thanks
