Allow to show today's current events in the upcoming events

[k-webdesign]

When you set the event list format to "all events" you can't see the events that are happening today. I found a workaround to hide each event at 23:59 at the end of the day but it would be much more comfortable if we had an option to include today's event(s) into the "all events" list.

Todays events should be included in all events.
If you just need today's events go:

What exactly are you trying to accomplish?

[k-webdesign]

I don't want to show just today's events, I want to show all upcoming events including today's. But "today" becomes invisible as soon as it's 00:01 (or even 00:00, I don't know).

I can't reproduce that in the demo 🤷‍♂️

maybe the problem is in your "workaround"?

I can reproduce the problem locally in Contao 4.9.8.

I can also reproduce the problem in the Contao Demo.

The difference between @asaage 's Test and mine is probably the tl_module.cal_noSpan setting (Shortend view). I disabled it, while @asaage probably kept it enabled. If you disable tl_module.cal_noSpan, then the event list showing all upcoming events will not display today's event. If you enable it, then it will display today's event.

[asaage]

Yes (Shortened view)-disabled seems to cause that unexpected behaviour.

I think this is actually a duplicate of #2448

[fritzmg]

Hm, this is a tough one to fix. Technically I would say, that the event showing up when Shortened view is enabled is a bug, since it is not a future event any more.

However I do find it desirable to always list events of the current day. May be this would be another checkbox? 😬 Always show events of current day. But then this would also list events of the current day, which have an end time in the past …

[k-webdesign]

I also think it's a bug...

In which case have events of the current day an end time in the past? They are current when they're today and end somewhen today.

[aschempp]

It shouldn't be a checkbox, it's simply another option to "Show today and future events" imho.

[Ernestopheles]

In my case, the event will be shown on the same day as well, but only before start time. As soon as start time is reached, the event will not be shown any more.
using this module:

My wish is, this event should be shown until end time

I came across this issue again. Unfortunately it hasn't been fixed yet. How I expect it to work is that an event becomes invisible when the end time is passed. If no time is specified, the current day's event should be visible until the day is over. If the end time is passed the event should be visible in the past events setting.

It's a really annoying problem and I hope it can be fixed soon.
