hi,

hi, how can i get all future events?
i'm not in the calendar scope, so i try with this code:

$var = DataObject::get("CalendarDateTime", "StartDate > " . date("now"));

but it doesn't work...

thanks

never mind, just found out:

$now = date("Y-m-d");
$var = DataObject::get("CalendarDateTime", "StartDate > '$now'", "StartDate");

That's not the best way to do it because you'll only get CalendarEvent objects rather than announcements and recurring events as well. Use:

DataObject::get_one("Calendar")->upcomingEvents(5);

Where the first argument is the number of events to return. Also see Calendar::recentEvents();
