Customize date filter options

Specific Date

Selecting this option allows for three date filter types: ‘On a specific date‘ (events on a chosen date), ‘Before a specific date‘ (events before a chosen date), and ‘After a specific date‘ (events after a chosen date). Additionally, by checking the ‘Include time information‘ option, you can specify hours and minutes along with the filter date.
