Module-teaser: show defined events

Module-teaser: show defined events

10 years 9 months ago - 10 years 6 months ago

I use the latest events teaser module. But sometimes I want to show a coming event beneath the latest event.
[e.g. one event is Thursday, my special event is Friday. I only want one event as latest event. So until Fridaymorning the Friday event is hidden.]

My feature request:
Could it be possible [perhaps in the latest events teaser module] to insert the wished events ids, which should be shown?

I know I could create a menu for one event, then create a banner which links to the event details. But this is not so handy.

Hi Jojo,

as far as I undertand you need some prioritizing to overrule strict ordering by date and have important events on top.
I'm not sure if your idea with hard configured id is much more handy. First you need to know event's id. Also you need to remove id later or module must automatically ignore given ids of events in the past.

Another idea could be special handling for featured events. So you could make your important event to featured and configure module to show featured events of next X days atop of (or additional to) normal events.
But must think more abuot this to have a good and logical algorithm...

yes, you understand my english ;-( right! And I think your idea is better with the featured events. There could/should be a filter for featured events in the module. Then it's perfect!
EDIT:
My easy solution: I added in the query a.featured and added in xml a fourth type to choose: only featured coming events. Then I added in the helper.php of the module this condition: $where .= ' AND a.featured = 1';
