# Display order problem

 * I’ve run into an odd issue. There are two gigs, one for 11/4/22 and one for 10/
   14/22. It displays the Nov gig on top even though the shortcode is `[gigpress_shows
   scope=upcoming]`. I’ve tried asc and desc and they don’t change it. If I change
   the Nov show to a Sept date it displays first as it should. I change it back 
   to Nov and it still displays first when it shouldn’t!
 * Any idea what’s going on here?
 * THANKS!

 * Hi [@maddogprod](https://wordpress.org/support/users/maddogprod/) ,
 * Thanks for reaching out!
 * Would you be willing to switch to a default WordPress theme(e.g. Twenty Twenty)
   and deactivate other plugins to see if the gigs are correctly ordered in those
   conditions?
 * Best regards,
    Marta

 * Hi Marta —
 * I took it down to the TwentyTwenty theme with only GigPress enabled and it still
   displays in the wrong order.

 * Hi [@maddogprod](https://wordpress.org/support/users/maddogprod/) ,
 * I’ve created 2 shows (one for 10/14/22 and one for 11/04/22) and they are displaying
   properly on my end(10/14/22 is on the top). Could you double-check everything
   on your site again(shows settings, GigPress timezone and make sure it matches
   your current timezone)?

 * Everything looks right to me. WP and GigPress are both set to LA (though that’s
   time, not date anyway). Here’s the Debug info if that helps you at all. I’m not
   sure what all the variables are but one looks odd (default_date).

 * Some more testing:
 * – When I go to add a new show the default date is Nov 4, 2022. Shouldn’t that
   be today’s date?
 * – I added a fake show for 10/22/22 right between the two existing ones. If displays
   them in the order:
    10/22/22 11/4/22 10/14/22-10/15/22
 * – Again, just to check, I disabled all plugins except GigPress, reverted to the
   Twenty Twenty theme, and still have the same display listing order problem.
 * I’m baffled.

 * Hi [@maddogprod](https://wordpress.org/support/users/maddogprod/), this is definitely
   weird. I couldn’t replicate it as well and tried the order you have here. It 
   seems to be working fine.
 * Could you provide me with the versions of the following?
    1. PHP 2. WordPress
 * I’m also curious about this one. Looking forward to hearing from you.

 * It was using PHP v7.2 but I upgraded to 7.4. It didn’t help.
 * WP is v6.0.1

 * Hi [@maddogprod](https://wordpress.org/support/users/maddogprod/), appreciate
   you providing more information here. I’m curious about this one. That should 
   work, I suspect, that there’s another plugin that’s causing this indirectly. 
   I did some testing, and it works on my end, with the default theme, WP6, and 
   PHP7.4.
 * I know you already did the testing for conflicts but it is worth re-trying it
   and I would suggest using a third-party plugin, Health Check Plugin — this plugin
   can be really helpful when testing for conflicts. [https://wordpress.org/plugins/health-check/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/health-check/)
 * Let me know how it goes on your end. I’m as well baffled.

 * Thanks for sticking with this. HealthCheck is what I used first, putting it in
   Troubleshooting mode with everything disabled except the Twenty Twenty theme 
   and GigPress. No joy. It still displays in the wrong order. (HC shows everything
   is good except “should remove inactive plugins” and “should remove inactive themes.”
   It also passed all tests. I’ll be glad to send a copy of the INFO if that will
   help.)
 * Then I disabled HealthCheck and actually disabled all plugins and used the default
   theme. Then enabled GigPress. Still no joy.
