Custom filtering current date.
Is there a way to save a segment with the filter being Date is after (current date) instead of actually choosing a date?
I have a CPT for Events. I would like a segment to be able to show only future events in the order of next upcoming events.
Currently, there is no such option, but I see why a “future/past” date condition would be useful. I think it would make sense for a date to have two extra options: past and future dates, especially in combination with segments.
Thanks for the input, I will look into it a bit further and see if we can ship this in an upcoming release.
Cheers, Tobias
Did this feature ever make it into ACP?
Thanks, Phil
Yes, many of our date columns do have the future and past date filters. Even filters like x days ago and today are operators that are available for the date columns. This is a feature in our Smart Filtering feature, not the filter feature with the default drop downs on the table.
Hey @stefan This doesn’t seem to be the cast for ACF Date fields. Is there any want to set a default smart filter based on ACF date field?

You’re right, this is currently not implemented for both the ACF Date and Date-Time fields.
For the Date Time fields, there is a simple workaround that works by changing the following file:
ac-addon-acf/classes/Fields/DateTimePicker.php
The search method should become this:
public function search() {
return new ACP\Search\Comparison\Meta\DateTime\ISO( $this->get_meta_key(), $this->get_meta_type() );
}It will be patched in the next version. We’ll have another look at the date field since this must be written specifically for the ‘uncommon’ ACF date format.
