Hi Elliot,

Thank you very much for the reply.

Before I noticed this I was still working on this problem, and got the following to work:

<?php
$currentdate = date("Y-m-d",mktime(0,0,0,date("m"),date("d"),date("Y")));

$wp_query = new WP_Query(  array (
    'post_type' => 'events',
    'meta_query'=> array(
        array(
          'key' => 'start_date',
          'compare' => '>',
          'value' => $currentdate,
          'type' => 'DATE',
        )),
    'meta_key' => 'start_date',
    'orderby' => 'meta_value',
    'order' => 'ASC',
	'posts_per_page' => 12,
	'paged' => $paged,
    )
); ?>

Its not counting the expired posts and is paging perfectly too.

Thanks again for the reply,
Darren.
