Sort and filter events by event date, device, and tags

Improve event organization in the dashboard and app: add an event date field and sort by it (creation date is not useful when events are booked months ahead), allow descending order, add filters such as last 7 days and by device, offer a calendar view, and support tags for completed events (link sent, invoiced, delete after a date).

Original request

Hi Lumabooth team,

I'd like to suggest two improvements to event sorting on the dashboard.

Right now the only sort options are Name and Date Created. The issue is that Date Created isn't very useful in practice — many of my events are booked months in advance, so the creation date has no relationship to when I actually need to load the event. On event day, I'm trying to quickly find a booking happening that day, not one I happened to create on that day.

I've tried working around this by naming every event YYYY-MM-DD-ClientName and sorting by Name — but it doesn't really help, because the list is locked to ascending order. That puts my oldest events at the top and pushes today's event further down the list the longer I use the app.

The new dashboard now collects a Date of Event field when creating an event (I'm assuming this came in with the iPad version?), so the data is already there. Two requests:

  1. Sort by Date of Event — using the actual event date field.

  2. Ascending / descending toggle — so I can put the newest/upcoming events on top instead of the oldest.

Sorting has worked this way since v6 (and probably earlier), so I imagine I'm not the only one who'd benefit.

Thanks for considering it.

Best, Dan

    Tags in Galerie ansicht

    Es wäre Super wenn man sich die Abgeschlossenen Events etwas mit Tags sortieren und Filtern könnte z.B. Link versendet, Rechnung erstellt, Löschen August 2027, etc. das würde einem den Umgang mit den Events etwas vereinfachen

    Lieben Gruß und macht weiter so

    Add Filter options in the Saved Events List

    Have different filter options such as sort by event date, or last 7 days. Sort by device.

    Create events by date/organise them by date order on the app and in dashboard

    Can we request a way to create/add a date to the actual event itself? I know you can set this for the online gallery. However when creating events it ends up in one long list.

    It would be very helpful to have the list of created events in date order/by month or even a calendar where you can add the event. This would be so much easier to locate the correct event for that day and staff member.

    Thanks

    Online gallery sort option

    Allow manual sort options for the online gallery. Include options such by sort by file name, file type, or other sort options.

    Thanks for the suggestion Dan, is this for the Dashboard, Apple or Windows app?
