v1.8.0 - Date Range Filtering & Recurring Events List

What's New in v1.8.0

New Features

✨ Date Range Query Parameters for Events Endpoint

• Added start_date and end_date parameters to GET /eme_events
• Supports filtering events by date range (YYYY-MM-DD format)
• Date parameters take precedence over scope parameter

Example:

# Get events in November 2025
curl 'https://yoursite.com/wp-json/eme/v1/eme_events?start_date=2025-11-01&end_date=2025-11-30'

✨ List Recurring Events Endpoint

• Added GET /eme_recurrences to list all recurring event templates
• Returns parent events that have recurring instances
• Useful for managing recurring event series

Bug Fixes

🐛 Fixed Events API Response

• Events API now properly returns all events including recurring instances
• Previously only returned limited results due to parameter handling issue
• Now correctly passes date range to EME's query functions
