Past events are never listed. Active filters stay in the address, so a filtered search can be bookmarked or shared. Clear all resets the page.

Sorting and views

  • Soonest first (default), Most popular (by views, featured first), Newest and Lowest price
  • Switch between grid and list view with the two buttons above the results
  • Pagination appears when there are more events than the page size. The size is set in General settings (Events per page)

On mobile

The filter panel collapses behind a Filters button, so the result list gets the whole screen.

You can link to a filtered search from any page, banner or newsletter. For example index.php?mod=search&price=free&when=weekend shows free events this weekend. Other parameters are q, category, city, online=1 and sort.

Add links to the most popular searches in your pages or footer. They are great landing pages for search engines too.
