Curious... Is there a way to set up the site where we would be able to click on PREVIOUS calendar dates so that we can upload photos (and view photos) from past events??

There's a way to do it now, but it involves playing around with URLs a little bit.

Essentially, do an event search that should match and pick a date range. That'll give you a page with a URL like:

http://www.indy.com/events/list?eventdate%5Benddate%5D=2008-02-09&scrollup=true&event%5Bcategory%5D=&event%5Bsubcategory%5D=&eventdate%5Bstartdate%5D=2008-02-03&venuelocation%5Blocation%5D=&venuelocation%5Bzip%5D=&event%5Btext_search%5D=king&event[category]=Live+Music

Just change the eventdate%5Bstartdate%5D=2008-02-03 bit to a date in the past.

Keep in mind that, unless the event has a review, it'll drop from the system in a month.

We're working on getting the date range box to include past dates as well, but that won't be until our next update (which might be a while to be honest).

Hope that helps.

Chris, i think users should be awarded Karma points for commenting on other people's posts. I think that will cut down on the number of useless posts by others, as well as get everyone more involved.
