I changed time() to mktime() - 24*3600 to make sure events that are happening today or “right now” are also listed.

Hey, this is good stuff. It did just what I was looking for…. I’ve got a site that I needed to list upcoming ‘events’ in chronological order from the soonest to the farthest away and this let me do just that.

Now, I just need to figure out how to do the same thing, but in the sidebar as an ‘upcoming events’ link area…

I just wanted to leave a note of thanks to you for your plugin. I have searched for days for something applicable to do just this. The ability to enter a date/time and have it stored that way instead of a string so that it can be sorted and filtered correctly. Excellent. This needs to be in the WordPress Plugin repository (or is it and i just couldn’t find it?)
I would also like to use your ‘Event’ box to enter a name and a link. Where would i add that? Is there some way to disable the time boxes and have just the date boxes?
Again, thanks for the work and keep it up!!!!

It shouldn’t be a problem to use this in a theme from woothemes.
Please see this page for how to use query_posts. Query_posts
It depends where you want the posts to go but I have used this plug-in by adding a new loop in the sidebar.
Hope that helps.

That is the only line that was needed for me, I suggest you pull the user set blog timezone form the wordpress mysql database so it will automatically set the timezone to the blog default timezone.

You could also make a custom write menu for the plugin and allow people to select a timezone from a list or something?

Since I’m in EST time the code I provided above will work for me.
