    There is a good chance that the dates are not stored in the YYYYMMDD format required by Search and Filter.

    Dates are stored in this format: YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS
    But the global filter to show only content from the current date to the future works perfectly.

    Is there a way I can make it work? Maybe modifying the code of the plugin manually?

    Thanks for your help!

    The only way you could make it work is to have a second date field, that holds the date in our required format. You could add a function to your child theme’s functions.php file to hook in to the WordPress save_post() function to process the saved date and save it in the desired format into this new field.

    Seems not very efficient to duplicate meta fields just to do this.

    There is an option for Date Input Format: Timestamp or YYYYMMDD (ACF). Could you make a new one for
    The Events Calendar plugin, so they are compatible? This is by far the top 1 calendar plugin:

    It is likely we will look at this for V3, which is currently in development.

    We’re currently working on this situation as well. Is the solution to wait for V3? Is there a release date set for V3 yet?

    No release date, I am sorry. Closer, a lot closer.
