filtering by date

Hi All
I have a event calendar in wich I use a TV eventDate to sort the Documents. Now I would like to filter the entries also by this TV.
I’ve tried &filter=`eventDate,5,eventDate` in my call but it still displays all my Documents. Your help is much appreciated.

This is in the wrong syntax.

The proper syntax is:

So we could modify this as:


And I think that you need to select eventDate as the dateSource in the Ditto call as well. NOt sure if this would work but give it a try.

Hi dev_cw

thanks I tried this call but it dosen’t show me any docs anymore. I guess I should be able to have a current Date to filter with, something like &filter=`eventDate,currentDate,5`. I’ve tried to create a current Date TV but no luck. maybe there is another way.
thanks anyway.

Check out this post I think it may have a solution for getting the current date.
