Manage Events

Hi to all,

Here is what i ran into:

If searching for events through /civicrm/event/manage?reset=1 , with no criteria given, it shows no events even though events exist (in this case they are all in the past).
They don't show up until I explicitly set 'Search by Date Range'. I don't believe it was supposed to work like this - rather it should return all records when no criteria supplied (similar to the contact search).

goran :

When you select no criteria, it by default shows "Show Current and Upcoming Events".
To view all/selected events, you have the option to "Search by Date Range".

Thank you for your answer. May I suggest to have the radio selected to show the default selection (tested in firefox and chrome on 2.1.2; it is not selected and the criteria is still applied).

It would be nice to have an option to do a quick search against everything - currently we need min 5 clicks to say 'search all', implying we know the date of the oldest event.

This has been fixed. Here is the patch: http://fisheye.civicrm.org/changelog/CiviCRM/?cs=18451

You could still do a criteria-less quick search, with "Search by Date Range" without specifying 'From' and 'To' would result in all events(no need of knowing date of the oldest event).

Hope that helps!

Thanks to both; yes - it did help. :)

Do you think the following change to /trunk/CRM/Event/Form/SearchEvent.php
<         $searchOption  = array( ts('Show Current and Upcoming Events'), ts('Search by Date Range') );
---
>         $searchOption  = array( ts('Search Current and Upcoming Events'), ts('Search All or by Date Range') );
would make sense?
