I have tried to use the short code,
[EVENT_LIST order_by=date(start_date),id]
but for some reason its isnt changing the order of events.

Hi Joe,
The documentation is a little confusing on this one. You need to add a sort parameter. So if you wanted to order by start date and order them ascending it would be:
[EVENT_LIST order_by=start_date sort=ASC]
or if you want to order them starting with the furthest event in the future then go back (descending) it would be:
[EVENT_LIST order_by=start_date sort=DESC]

Josh,
Thank you first for your fast response. I am still having a problem! It doesn’t want to work.
Please see how it appears even tho I use the Short Code for ascending order.

Hi Joe,
Can you post the exact shortcode you’re using so we can investigate further?

Can you check in the event editor and make sure that the dates are entered in this format:
2013-06-11
Which is year-month-day. I’m wondering if the calendar date picker isn’t working when you select dates in the admin.

That fixed the problem! Thank you!
Yesterday I lost internet while putting that event up & the calendar picker would not work so i just typed in the date manually!
Thanks a bunch!
