CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

I figured this out, solution below, wiki updated.... Been using this verbatim and successfully for over a year in a Drupal block on my site:
http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC/List+of+Upcoming+CiviEvents+or+Feed+of+Events

Upon upgrade from 3.1.2 to 3.1.4 it stopped working and now returns "No events found."  From my debugging it looks like it's not finding the CiviCRM API function at all, as we have many events in our system, and it was working before the upgrade, or at least I remember it was, and the client would have been screaming if it wasn't working...  Why did this issue suddenly popup in 3.1.4?

 print_r($myEvents) prints only the $params, nothing else.  So my guess was that's the variable wasn't even getting set.    But after reading this page, I got no insight into what it might be, except a search example that was much different than the cookbook in the wiki.

UPDATED This was the old code....

if (module_exists('civicrm')) {
  civicrm_initialize(TRUE);
  require_once 'api/v2/Event.php';
  // This example limits listing to public and active events
  $params = array ('is_public'     => 1, 'is_active'     => 1);
  $myEvents = civicrm_event_search( $params );

this is the new, edited based on the new example that I found and adapted to suit Kurund's code
 $params = array (
   'return.id' => 1,
     'return.title' => 1,
   'return.end_date' => 1,
   'return.start_date' => 1,
   'is_public' => 1,
   'is_active' => 1,
   'return.max_results' => 9999
   );
  $myEvents = civicrm_event_search( &$params );

Note that the API for civicrm_event search has changed rather dramatically, not sure why, but I have updated the wiki with this info.

Thank you for an explanation, I have made a note of it and updated the wiki
