Wow thanks, that works perfectly!
I ended up doing this:
/* Ongoing Past Events */
$ongoing = new WP_Query( array(
'post_type' => 'event',
'meta_query' => array(
'relation' => 'AND',
array(
'key' => 'acf_event_date_start',
'value' => date('Ymd'),
'compare' => '<',
'type' => 'date'
),
array(
'key' => 'acf_event_date_end',
'value' => date('Ymd'),
'compare' => '>=',
'type' => 'date'
)
),
'orderby' => 'meta_value_num',
'order' => 'DESC'
));
if ($ongoing->have_posts()) :
$exclude = array();
while($ongoing->have_posts()) : $ongoing->the_post();
$exclude[] = $post->ID;
endwhile;
endif;
/* Past Events */
$paged = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
$wp_query = new WP_Query( array(
'post_type' => 'event',
'post__not_in' => $exclude, // Exclude ongoing past events
'meta_query' => array(
array(
'key' => 'acf_event_date_start',
'value' => date('Ymd'),
'compare' => '<',
'type' => 'date'
)
),
'orderby' => 'meta_value_num',
'order' => 'DESC',
'paged' => $paged
));
Which also works, but you need 2 queries which is not ideal.
Thanks for your help!
