I am trying to display both expired and future entries on a sports team page so that users can see scores of past contests in addition to upcoming contests. Right now, the current setup is only showing expired contests. Changing to dynamic=“off” has had no effect.

{exp:weblog:entries weblog="upcoming" dynamic="off" related_categories_mode="on" show_future_entries="yes" show_expired="yes" sort="asc"}

{if upcoming-event}
     {upcoming-event}
      <tr>
         <td>{entry_date format='%D'}</td>
         <td>{entry_date format='%m/%j'}</td>
         <td>{event-opponent}</td>
         <td>{event-location}</td>
         <td>{event-time}</td>
         <td>{event-results}</td>
      </tr>
     {/upcoming-event}
     {if no_results}
     <tr class="no-sched">
        <td class="empty" rowspan="3" colspan="5">There are no scheduled events.</td>
     </tr>
{/if}
{/exp:weblog:entries}

Thanks in advance for the help.

Hi, KAAB -

First, let’s start by simplifying the tag. You may be hiding things unintentionally using that conditional

Can you try this:

{exp:weblog:entries weblog="upcoming" dynamic="off" related_categories_mode="on" show_future_entries="yes" show_expired="yes" sort="asc"}

     {upcoming-event}
      <tr>
         <td>{entry_date format='%D'}</td>
         <td>{entry_date format='%m/%j'}</td>
         <td>{event-opponent}</td>
         <td>{event-location}</td>
         <td>{event-time}</td>
         <td>{event-results}</td>
      </tr>
     {/upcoming-event}
     {if no_results}
     <tr class="no-sched">
        <td class="empty" rowspan="3" colspan="5">There are no scheduled events.</td>
     </tr>
{/exp:weblog:entries}

Also, is upcoming_event a Matrix field or something else?

and lastly, are these all Open status?

Thank you!

Hi Lisa,

Yes, upcoming-event is a Matrix field and all entries are defaulted to the “open” status.

I have updated to the code snippet to what you provided, but am still seeing the same results:
```
{exp:weblog:entries weblog="upcoming" dynamic="off" related_categories_mode="on" show_future_entries="yes" show_expired="yes" sort="asc"}

     {upcoming-event}
      <tr>
         <td>{entry_date format='%D'}</td>
         <td>{entry_date format='%m/%j'}</td>
         <td>{event-opponent}</td>
         <td>{event-location}</td>
         <td>{event-time}</td>
         <td>{event-results}</td>
      </tr>
     {/upcoming-event}
     {if no_results}
     <tr class="no-sched">
        <td class="empty" rowspan="3" colspan="5">There are no scheduled events.</td>
     </tr>
{/exp:weblog:entries}
```
Any additional insight would be very helpful. This seems like it should be an easy fix, but I haven’t been able to find any resources regarding this specific issue. You can see the issue on the live site by clicking on the schedule tab here: http://sheldonathletics.com/teams/spring-sports/baseball/ There are currently games scheduled out through April 16 and none of them are showing up past the last expired event.

Thanks again in advance

When I set the limit to 250, I was able to see everything. This will work for now, though it is less than ideal

KAAB,

EE has a default limit of 100 so anything over that then you will have to manually set.

That shouldn’t be a problem as most of these lists only contain 20-40 items at most.

Sounds good, KAAB. Glad that works!
