I’m having a difficult time getting the plugin to work with a custom post type on a page where I have a custom query built.

I have a CPT called Productions. The upcoming productions and the past productions are displayed in different areas of the site. The archive-productions.php template only displays upcoming productions.

I have a page template that displays only the past productions, called page-past-productions.php, using a custom query.

I’m trying to implement a filter UI in the past-productions page template so users can drill down by year.

I installed the plugin and created the form, using the post meta of “event date,” which corresponds to the ACF date picker field I’m using for Productions CPT.

I tried to implement the form using the shortcode, and I got a syntax error.

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '6128' (T_LNUMBER) in /Users/labedzde/Documents/Sites/acmusic/wp-content/themes/acm/page-past-productions.php on line 18

If it helps, here’s the whole code of my custom query, which sits in a page template called page-past-productions.php):

	<?php echo do_shortcode("[searchandfilter id="6128"]"); ?>

<?php 
						//Set server timezone to central
						date_default_timezone_set('America/Chicago'); 
						//Today's date
						$today = date('Y-m-d H:i:s'); 
						?>

						<?php //arg to determine if the post is a past event.
						$args = array(
						'post_type'		=> 'productions',
						'posts_per_page'	=> 10,
						'order' => 'DESC',
						'meta_query' => array(
        array(
            'key' => 'event_date',
            'value' => $today,
            'compare' => '<=',
        ),
        )

							); 
						?>

						<?php 
						// the past events query
						$query = new WP_Query( $args ); 
						?>

<?php if ( $query->have_posts() ) : ?>					
  <!-- the loop -->
  <?php while ( $query->have_posts() ) : $query->the_post(); ?>

  

							<article id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>" <?php post_class( 'cf' ); ?> role="article">

    <a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" title="<?php the_title_attribute(); ?>">

    </a>
<?php endif; ?>

									<?php wp_reset_postdata(); ?>
