In the Event Publishing Date Range section, you can enter positive numeric values in the days in the future and days in the past fields to form the date range of events to include when publishing feeds.

Be careful setting especially large date ranges, as they may cause 25Live Publisher to update more slowly.

4. Set Events-By-Location Publishing Date Range

Enter positive numeric values in the days in the future and days in the past fields.
