Archive Month Links Tag when event spans two months

Not with that tag, no, the intent is a bit different than what you’re after. That list is only concerned with the entry date, not the expiration or meta data, as it represents fixed points in time rather than date ranges.

Thanks Derek,

Any suggestions on how I could achieve what I’m after doing?

Cheers

What’s the primary goal you’re trying to accomplish (talking content here, not implementation) and your desired output? Please provide a sample if you can.

I’d like to display a month archive list for entries where events span across two or more months e.g. Santa’s Grotto starting in November (Entry added in November) running into December.

I’d like the archive list to show:

November December

When a visitors clicks a month I like to show the events that are happening in that month.

Regards

Wayne.

Thanks Wayne, and one more question, what fields are you using to indicate the start and the end of an event?

At the minute it just a text field that holds the event date.

This is an example of how an event date is currently listed: Saturday 26th November, 3rd, 10th, 17th December

Hm, ok. ExpressionEngine isn’t going to be able to programmatically split up the display of your events if you’re just using text fields. Is there a reason you aren’t using date fields, for example entry date and expiration date?

Edit: nevermind, I see that you are picking multiple distinct dates for a single entry. You may need to look at implementing an Event add-on. Those dates are human-readable and easy for us to parse, but not so easy for machines. I would look at Low Events and Solspace Calendar.

Thanks for your help Derek, I’ll have a look at those.

Regards

Wayne
