    Hi,

    I have been looking around to see if I could find any help on an events page I am trying to put together but I can’t see anything related to what it is I want to do. 

    Basically I want to create an Events page where all upcoming events are organised by month for example:

    September 2010
    30th - Event 1

    October 2010
    19th - Event 2
    25th - Event 3

    December 2010
    1st - Event 4
    5th - Event 5
    16th - Event 6
    27th - Event 7

    March 2010
    1st - Event 8

    All events logged in the system are displayed under the relevant month of the event.  If no events are scheduled that month then no month heading should be displayed as in November above. 

    Hoping to get some pointers as to how to go about this.  Thanks.

    do you need this?

    http://ellislab.com/expressionengine/user-guide/modules/channel/parameters.html#par_display_by

    you can sort channels by week, month or day and even you can use show_current_week. something like this

    display_by=“week” limit=“1” show_future_entries=“yes” show_current_week=“yes”

    same thing for month. Why don’t u use calendar? Calendar tag is great.

    That sounds interesting. I’ll look into it in more detail and give it a whirl to see if it does what I want it to.

    Cheers. Much appreciated.
